JetBrains Rider - errors when connecting to on-prem TFS


I am trying to connect latest version (2019.3.4) of Rider to TFS (on premise, TFS 2010).

I went through the steps in their community support (https://rider-support.jetbrains.com/hc/en-us/articles/360000335099-How-to-use-Visual-Studio-s-TFV%D0%A1-local-workspace-in-Rider), and got stuck on the step #6.

Go to VCS -> TFVS -> Manage Workspaces, select your server, and press "Reload workspaces"

I am getting the following error when clicking reload:

If I try to click 'Edit' button, I get a different error:

When I try to view file history, I get this warning

13:50 Problems while loading file history: HTTP 401 Unauthorized

Rider never asked me to authenticate with my VCS (and I see no way of doing that).

What should I do to make it work? Thanks


Solution

  • So, the answer by Cece is helpful, but does not solve the problem.

    It simply turned out that I need a different plugin to Rider.

    The one installed by default in recent releases is for Azure DevOps.

    There is another one, called TFS - and that's the one to use. https://plugins.jetbrains.com/plugin/4578-tfs/
