We have a TFS server running in our environment. If you open a browser to the hostname and /default.aspx on port 80 it will bring up the default sharepoint site.
I would like to know where the calendar data is being stored for this site. I have looked in the inet folder and although the site in the defaultsite directory has an app_data folder, it is simply populated with the .Net Framework Membership tables.
I am using TFS2010.
Does anyone know where the database is that stores this calendar data?
Thanks for any and all replies.
That will be stored in SharePoint's content database. Typically called WSS_Content.
The below screenshots show where you find that info in SharePoint Central Admin (note: this is for SharePoint 2013, but it's probably similar for older versions of SharePoint)

I just moved my tfs 2013 in one server to tfs 2015 update 1 on another server, and I also changed the DB server behind.
Everything worked perfectly fine on the migration except for the sharepoint integration, unfortunately during the migration, the sharepoint content database where it was pointing to had physical errors on its content database (wss_content).
However I created another webapplication http://portaltfs, where I want to make the integration with tfs.
However, when I click on change or add, I get this error
Check this blog to see whether your upgrade process is correct. And try try to remove SharePoint extension and re-configure it.
Also, since you would attach the content database which migrated from TFS 2013, after creating new web application with the web site name and port number, go to
Manage Content Database from Central Administrator site, and select the web application created and check Remove content database. Then open SharePoint 2013 Management shell and use Mount-SPContentDatabase to attach the old content database. Refer to the blog for more details.
I have a couple of reports that are sitting on a Sharepoint site that I need to make available to users outside of the organisation that I'm working in. So they will need to login in a .com portal etc to view these reports. at the moment we only have the Sharepoint reporting services running.
How I'm looking for the easiest way to achieve this. Could be depoly the reports needed on native mode server and have the native portal front end accesible for appropriate users, or should we be looking to build a tailored frontend to pull the specified reports directly from their sharepoint location.
any recomendations be greatly appreciated

I am using a sharepoint Workspace between different people, so I'm basicaly syncing a folder between pc's. Now my question is if any of you know how to sync between pc's and a folder on a sharepoint site. I cannot seem to figure this out!
thank you for your help!
You need to create a document library on a SharePoint site and then give permissions (contribute or higher) to everyone who wants to share the files/folder. Once it's done, ask your users to navigate to the library on the SharePoint site and click on the "Sync to SharePoint Workspace" under library tab.
Alternatively, Once you are done assigning permissions to the document library (or just a folder in it), users can directly add the document library from the workspace quick launch for Sharing.
I suppose for your purpose you should use oneDrive instead of SharePoint workspace. Pay attention that oneDrive is available in office 2013 or office 365. In 2010 version it's named SkyDrive!
look at these links: Sync OneDrive for Business or site libraries to your computer

I've just completed an installation of SharePoint Foundation 2010 and I can't get searching to work.
In Central Administration, there is no service application listed for search.
When I go into the Manage Content Database Settings page, the option "Select Microsoft SharePoint Foundation search server" is greyed-out.
In the Services MMC, "SharePoint Foundation Search Service V4" is listed as disabled. I can get this service running for a short time, but eventually it stops and automatically reverts back to the disabled state.
What did we do wrong to make searching completely unavailable in our SharePoint Foundation 2010 installation? How do we get it fixed?
EDIT--->
I changed the log on account for "SharePoint Foundation Search V4" service. The service now starts automatically and is no longer disabled. However, when I go to Central Admin->Manage Service Applications, I still don't see a search service listed. I also still cannot assign a search server to the content databases.
I've tried repairing the SharePoint installation and rebooting the box. I feel like I'm one step closer - but I still don't have search functionality on the site.
EDIT #2--->
I checked the databases on this system and there is no search database listed. On our old WSS 3.0 system there was a database dedicated to search for SharePoint. I'm not sure if this database is missing from the 2010 Foundation server or if 2010 doesn't use a separate database anymore?
I've now got the search service running on my SharePoint Foundation 2010 Installation. Here's what I did:
In Central Administration, go to System Settings->Services on Server. (Note: Prior to this step - no WSS_Search_* database existed on the server)
Select the SharePoint Foundation Search service and click Start
Enter and/or confirm the settings on the Search service page
Press Start to start the service
Go to Manage Content Databases
For each content database in the SharePoint site - assign the correct search server (Note: This option was greyed out until after I started the service in "CA->Services on Server")
At this point search is now enabled on the server. I've verified that search is working correctly. However, I do note that the search service still does not appear in the CA->Manage Service Applications list)
With Sharepoint Foundation you must install Microsoft Search Server http://www.microsoft.com/enterprisesearch/searchserverexpress/en/us/download.aspx
I have created a Team Project in TFS 2010 and the Project Portal in SharePoint 2010.
Now I need to create a WebPart to deploy in the SharePoint Site (Project portal) that connects to the TFS to get some information.
Where I can get the TFS Url that is associated with the Project Portal in SharePoint?
Any clues?
Thanks in advance.
The url of TFS is not stored in the Project Portal. It is the other way round. In TFS the WSS url is stored.
TfsRedirect can be used to determine the TFS Web Access URL from within SharePoint. Although it's not exactly what you want, and it's a little hacky - you can pass the parameter tf:Test=1 to get the TFS team project that is associated with the site that your web part is being displayed on.
See John Socha-Leialoha's blog post on Using TfsRedirect to Display Reports in TFS 2010 Dashboards
What is TfsRedirect?
Here’s the scenario. You had TFS create a dashboard site in SharePoint
when you created your team project (or you added it later as described
here). There are several items on this dashboard that point to other
locations that are potentially on other servers:
Team Web Access
Process Guidance
Reports shown on the dashboard pages
TFS itself know where to find these assets. And the locations can
change if, for example, the TFS administrator moves the reports to a
different server.
Rather than hard-code the locations of these assets into the
dashboard, the TFS team created a web page called TfsRedirect.aspx
that knows where these different assets are located, and will redirect
to that page.
Shouldn't you be able to go in to TFS2010 -> Team Explorer -> Right-Click on your Team Project -> Portal Settings?
