Changeset does not exist error when trying to checkout files from TFS repository

[Rohit Nazareth]

I have confirmed that the TFS repository and source path exist (attached screenshot). I do not know why the plugin is trying to checkout that specific changeset (1215643). Since this changeset does not exist, the checkout keeps failing. I could not find a setting for this. I even tried to exclude that changeset by adding it to the 'exclude changesets' setting, but it still tries to checkout that specific changeset.

I tried checking out with a different user account but still get the same error.

What’s the latest changeset in the repo?

[Rohit Nazareth]

57962 is the latest changeset for the Team Project

[Sergey Podobry]

Check that bamboo variable TFS_VERSION_SPEC is not set. Maybe someone set it to 1215643?

[Rohit Nazareth]

just checked, there is no plan variable set called TFS_VERSION_SPEC

[Sergey Podobry]

Also try to set Version Specifier in the Advanced Options to 57962. Or set TFS_VERSION_SPEC variable to 57962.

[Sergey Podobry]

It should checkout 57962. Then try clearing Version Specifier and run the build again.

Meanwhile I think what can we do to troubleshoot the issue.

[Sergey Podobry]

Any news about setting Version Specifier in the Advanced Options?

[Rohit Nazareth]

specifying the version made the checkout work, thanks. Did we find out why it was trying to checkout a random version when none was specified?

[Sergey Podobry]

specifying the version made the checkout work, thanks.

Is it working if clear Version Specifier?

Did we find out why it was trying to checkout a random version when none was specified?

Unfortunately no.

[Rohit Nazareth]

clearing the specifier results in the same error. For now, the version has to be specified for the checkout to work

[Sergey Podobry]

I see. That’s definitely not right. We’ll prepare a troubleshooting list with some command-line commands to gather more information.
