The Best Practices Analyzer tool for Team Foundation Server queries the metabase for Internet Information Services (IIS). This query determines the server bindings and secure bindings, such as the IP address and the host header name, that are defined for Web sites on which Team Foundation relies.
The following messages appear if any Web site is not configured with the default server bindings or is configured with secure bindings.
Unexpected server bindings are set (Warning)
Unexpected secure bindings are set (Warning)
Incorrect server bindings are set (Error)
Incorrect secure bindings are set (Error)
Team Foundation Server uses the identities in the following table:
Service |
IP Address |
Host Header Name |
---|---|---|
Default Web Site |
(All Unassigned) |
None |
Team Foundation Server Web Service |
(All Unassigned) |
None |
SharePoint Central Administration Service |
(All Unassigned) |
None |
An error, Incorrect server bindings are set, appears if any Web site is configured with an IP address that does not match the address that the server is using.
Note
You do not need to resolve warning messages, but you must resolve error messages. Before you change any unexpected server bindings, you must determine why the server bindings for a Web site were changed so that you do not violate any organizational policies.
To resolve the issue, log on to the server to which the error message refers and change the server bindings to the Web site that the warning or error specifies.
Required Permissions
To perform this procedure, you must be a member of the Administrators security group on the server to which the error message refers.
