Can’t Synchronize TFS Warehouse after upgrading SQL Server to 2008

I recently upgraded our TFS server from SQL 2005 to SQL 2008. Since then, my remaining work report hasn’t run. This makes me sad. Bill Wang explained the reason for this and I’m grateful for it.

In a nutshell, there needs to be an assembly redirection. This takes place per a couple settings in two (2) different web.config files. Modify the config files in C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 2008 Team Foundation Server\Web Services\Warehouse\web.config AND C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 2008 Team Foundation Server\Tools\SetupWarehouse.exe.config as follows:

      <dependentAssembly>
        <assemblyIdentity name="Microsoft.AnalysisServices"
                          publicKeyToken="89845dcd8080cc91"
                          culture="neutral" />
        <bindingRedirect oldVersion="9.0.242.0" newVersion="10.0.0.0"/>
      dependentAssembly>

Restart IIS, then send Bill Wang a thank you note!
