TFS 08 - Cannot find AgentService.asmx
We have a notification service running on our TFS server that automatically modifies certain work items when they are created, so they are assigned to the right people, etc.
Over the weekend, a patch was applied to our TFS server and the notification service seems to be broken ever since.
When it runs, we get an error in the Event Viewer that indicates there was a problem accessing the http://<our-tfs>:8080/Build/v2.0/AgentService.asmx
.
I looked at the folder IIS is displaying Build
in and it's true, AgentService.asmx doesn't exist.
Does anyone know where this file can be moved?

It turned out that the problem was configured with an error by the build agent (pointing to the wrong server). Full details can be found here: http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/KarlKopp/~3/VFmWhwwGyUk/tfs-the-case-of-the-phantom-build-agent

AgentService.asmx is a web service hosted by the Visual Studio Team Foundation Build service in the Team Build Agent. The Build Agent Service actually makes this URL available through WCF and therefore does not appear in IIS. By default, the build agent is configured to run on port 9191, although it does not conflict with the default port for the Team Foundation Server application layer (8080) if the build agent is also installed on the same computer hosting Team Foundation Server.
Do you want to check if the "Visual Studio Team Foundation Build" service is running? If an error occurs with a build agent, you can re-set the agent's status so that TFS will talk to it again (by right-clicking on the Builds node in Team Explorer and selecting Build Agents ...)
However, I'm not sure if this event is your problem. Do you happen to know which patch was recently applied to your TFS or where the web service is what you get TFS to send the event to?
Good luck,
Martin.
