TFS 2013 installation error: TF400069 You must install either SQL Server Analysis Services version 11.0

Rolling out a Team Foundation Server environment is always an adventure. Everytime I discover some new stuff. Last week at a customer I was setting up a new Team Foundation Server 2013 server when I got the following error message:

TF400069: You must install either SQL Server Analysis Services version 11.0 or the SQL Server Client Tools.

Did I forgot to install something? I went through the SQL Server Installation wizard(slow!) to see that I had indeed the SQL Server Client Tools installed. Just in case, I removed and reinstalled them… no difference. I had no clue so I even tried to install the SQL Server Analysis Services but even that made no difference.

It took me some time to figure out what I did wrong. Let’s have a second look at the error message (and especially look at the highlighted text):

TF400069: You must install either SQL Server Analysis Services version 11.0 or the SQL Server Client Tools.

Team Foundation Server 2013 requires at least SQL Server 2012 with SP1, I had installed the SQL Server 2008 R2 version Verwarde emoticon.

Help! I accidently enabled HSTS–on localhost

I ran into an issue after accidently enabling HSTS for a website on localhost. This was not an issue for the original website that was running in IIS and had a certificate configured. But when I tried to run an Angular app a little bit later on http://localhost:4200 the browser redirected me immediately to https://localhost . Whoops! That was not what I wanted in this case. To fix it, you need to go the network settings of your browser, there are available at: chrome://net-internals/#hsts edge://net-internals/#hsts brave://net-internals/#hsts Enter ‘localhost’ in the domain textbox under the Delete domain security policies section and hit Delete . That should do the trick…
