I have set up my Team Coding, server side objects, and VSS as my 3rd party provider. I can log into VSS separately and it works fine. I have all my server side objects, roles, and code control groups set up. But when I go to Team Coding menu and try to Log on to VCS I get the error:
"The VCS Provider is not initialized. Class not registered"
How do I get it initialized to log in?
The client portion of the Source Control install is not on the local machine.
RESOLUTION 1:
Verify that a vss.dll exist in installation directory. (ex: C:Program Files\Quest Software\Toad for Oracle or SQL Navigator for Oracle)
RESOLUTION 2:
The 3rd party provider client portion (like VSS) must be installed locally on the machine. Toad/SQL Navigator do not communicate directly to the server. You cannot run only the server piece of the Source Control install. Refer to the below links for server-client install of VSS: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms181050(VS.80).aspx and http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms181051(VS.80).aspx
