failed to connect to the existing server farm in sharepoint 2013 - sharepoint

Sharepoint 2013 was uninstallted from the Virtual Machine which is Windows 2012 R2. Installed the Sharepoint software again. When running the configuration wizard again, trying to connect to the existing server farm. However I am getting error as shown in the image

Uninstalling SharePoint 2013 dismounts SharePoint databases from its web applications, physical file still stored in the database server, however the old farm no longer exists.
It's necessary to create a new farm instead of joining old farm.

Can I develop SharePoint 2013 add-in from different machine in domain?

I have SharePoint Foundation 2013 installed on a server. I want to do the development using My machine. I have Visual Studio 2015 installed, with Office tools. I can create an app and deploy it to office 365. But when i try to deploy to an on-premise server I get the following error;
Error occurred in deployment step 'Install SharePoint Add-in': The HTTP request was forbidden with client authentication scheme 'Anonymous'.
Please refer this the below link. As per my understanding Office 365 uses https and local used http. sslshopper.com/iis7-redirect-http-to-https.html. Also have you created a dns entry in your local server (host file) please check.

Hosting TFS on the Same IIS Site as SharePoint Server 2016

I'm trying to figure out how to host Team Foundation Server 2015 on the same IIS site as my SharePoint Server 2016. Currently, the SharePoint IIS site hosts my main SharePoint web application and a few other custom applications I've developed separate from SharePoint.
I want to use the same address and port for all of my applications (SharePoint, TFS, and custom) without using host headers. That is, http://www.example.com/sharepoint, http://www.example.com/custom, http://www.example.com/tfs.
I've managed to install TFS and move the /tfs IIS application it creates over to the SharePoint IIS site by modifying the applicationHost.config and changing some other settings. I'm prompted to login when I browse to http://www.example.com/tfs, but after I login I just get a blank page.
Does anyone know if this is even possible?

Configuring TFS Extensions for SharePoint on remote server article has some error?

This paragraph looks like error:
If you want to run SharePoint Products on a server other than Team
Foundation Server, you must install Team Foundation Server on the
SharePoint server and then configure the TFS Extensions for
SharePoint. This installs all of TFS on the SharePoint server,
including the TFS SharePoint Extensions. The application tier, the
build server, and the proxy server appear in the TFS administration
console, but you do not have to configure any of these additional
features.
Source
This article is about Configuring TFS Extensions for SharePoint on remote server.
Then, why would someone install TFS server on SharePoint server again if he has already got the TFS server installed on another machine? Isn't it that he will only install the SharePoint extension on the SharePoint server?
Please advice.
Installing TFS on the server installs the required prerequisites, TFS Client Object Model, The Server Object model, the WSP that installs the SharePoint Extensions and a few other items. These elements are required for the Sharepoint Extensions to connect to the remote TFS server.
Installing these only drops these bits, but does not activate anything. There will be no running services, no other bits. That is what the Configure step will do, which you will skip for these steps.
So, no, this is not a bug in the documentation. You need to install TFS on the server. it makes sense as it installs all the prerequisites. again installing the binaries on the server doesn't configure any of the features. It's the same as the first stage of installing SharePoint, it drops the bits, but doesn't create any services, websites or databases until you configure. And you will configure only the one feature you need, which is the SharePoint integration.
It is probably possible to manually install all the prerequisites, register the TFS server to the client object model and manually deploy the WSP, but that is not the standard way of doing it.

Sharepoint site does not appear on IIS Manager, error in open site in sharepoint designer

4) An error may be occured in the web server
The IIS manager only showing the follwing sites
Sharepoint 80 and sharepoint central admin
When I try to create a site on sharepoint designer following error comes:
The web site must be created on a server that is running microsoft sharpoint foundation server please chooose another location.
I have installed sharepoint server 2010, sharepoint foundation server 2010 and sharepoint designer on my pc.
thanks
In IIS Manager, you're only going to see the Web apps, the site collections and sites are wont show up (if you have another web app that isn't showing up, that's a bigger issue. I'd delete it and try to recreate it). The SharePoint Designer issue, I've had before. For me, the issue was a firewall setting. But basically if you can get to the pages with the browser, make sure you have correct permissions set for your login, etc.

Sharepoint 2010 Foundation licenses

Quick question about SP 2010 licensing.
Is it totally free?
Can I install onto a web facing server without any licenses and let anybody and everybody do stuff, are there limitations??
Thx :)
To run SharePoint 2010 Foundation as an Internet Facing deployment, you will need a full SQL Server license (license per CPU) if you do not use SQL Server Express, and you will need an Internet Connection License (or Windows Server External Connector depending on what they are calling it these days - its a license which basically forgoes the need for CALs for the server and IIS) for the server you are serving from, plus standard Windows Server licenses etc.
SharePoint 2010 Foundation itself does not need a license for Internet Facing deployment, but the services it relies on does.
Try hosted sharepoint solutions or BPOS (which is in WSS3.0 mode right now..) for a cheaper solution and if the requirements allow it
The information posted above is not accurate. We have corporate licensing for Microsoft products and also run Sharepoint Foundation (although, not for long). This is directly from a MS rep in Houston, TX (Guillermo Proano). I hope he doesn't mind me quoting him here:
SharePoint Foundation 2010 for Intranet Scenarios: you need to license Windows Server and have a Windows Server CAL for each internal user leveraging this solution.
SharePoint Foundation 2010 for Internet Scenarios: you need to license Windows Server (hosting external site) and need to purchase a Windows Server External Connector for each Windows Server in the farm running the SPS internet sites.
This is above and beyond the SQL licensing.
