Do you use Microsoft Visual Studio SQL Database Project?
Do you need to rename all columns of a table? (ok, it's a rare operation).

Please pay a lot of attention because deploy and schema compare functions don't warn you that the table will be dropped and recreated... with a completely data loss!!!

This strange and dangerous behavior doesn't happen when you rename less columns.

The work-around is to manually add sql script to "copy and paste" the datas from old to new table.

Are you stucked during creation of a Team Project on Team Foundation Server 2010?

Does the progress bar hangs at 90% of the creation?

Have you found an error event on tfs server (application event log) that talks something about Lab Management and a Virtual Server Manager 2008 R2?

Do you confirm that your TFS is not configured for Lab Management?

Do you confirm you actually don't need the Lab Management feature?

Ok, pay attention 'cause process template MSF Agile 5.0 requires Lab Management configured.

A good and easy work-around is to create a new process template based on MSF Agile 5.0 removing the Lab Mangement section. - Posted using my iPhone
