TFS 2010 Test reports in upgraded projects fail


Symptoms

After upgrading to Team Foundation Server (TFS) 2010 from an earlier version (2005 or 2008), the following reports fail to process:

Test Failing With Active Bugs
Test Failing Without Active Bugs


On execution, these reports display the following error:

An error has occurred during report processing. (rsProcessingAborted)
Query execution failed for dataset 'dsTestsFailingWithoutActiveBugs'. (rsErrorExecutingCommand)
Invalid column name 'Test'. Invalid column name 'ComputerName'. Invalid column name 'Test'. Invalid column name 'ComputerName'.

Cause

These occur due to late changes to the schema for the TFS warehouse database.

Resolution

To resolve these errors the affected report definitions (RDL) need to be edited to reference the correct table in the relational TfsWarehouse database table. The following steps need to be performed for each affected team project upgraded from an earlier version of TFS:

1. Open a web browser and navigate to the Reporting address for the affected project (for example: http://<Server>/Reports/TfsReports/<collection>/<team project> where Server is the name of the server hosting Reporting Services, Collection is the nam of the upgraded collection and Team Project is the name of the upgraded team project, if you are using the non-default instance Reports will be Reports_instancename).

2. Run one of the affected reports (Test Failing With Active Bugs or Test Failing Without Active Bugs), confirm the error listed above is returned.

3. Click the "Properties" tab at the top of the report area.

4. Click the "Edit" link in the Report Definition area of the General section, save the file to a local directory.

5. Open the RDL file saved in step #4 in Notepad.

6. Search in this file for the string "vDimTestResultOverlay", edit the file to change this string to "DimTestResult" (without the quotation marks) then save the file.

7. Click the "Update" link in the Report Definition area of the General section and browse to the modified RDL file, click the OK button.

8. Click the "View" tab at the top of the report area to confirm the report renders correctly.

9. Repeat Steps 2 through 8 for the remaining Test Report in the current team project.

10. Repeat Steps 1 through 9 for each remaining team project in the upgraded collection.

11. Step 6 should also be performed for "Tests Passing with Active Bugs.RDL" and "Tests failing without Active Bugs.RDL" in the following directory on the TFS 2010 Application Tier server <TFS Install Directory>\Application Tier\TFSJobAgent\Deploy\UpgradeFiles\Reports\1033.

More Information

Other upgraded reports may fail as well, these are due to changes in SQL 2008 Analysis Services and can be corrected by applying the following patch:
