Consider a TFS 2010 server with Build Service, Build Controller, and Build Agent running on the same system. Things work "most of the time", but sometimes I have to restart the "Build Service". A few questions:
What is a build service?
Do build agents help with anything but a build controller (like TFS)? I ask because I want to put agents on another network that does not have access to TFS, but a quick test shows that they are still looking for TFS, any ideas why?
My build service shows 3350 errors (!) In the last 24 hours. Looking at the event log, I see a lot of the controller or agent "Could not load file or assembly": /// C: \ Windows \ ServiceProfiles \ NetworkService \ AppData \ Local \ Temp \ BuildController \ 1 \ System.Core.dll "". Any ideas what the problem is? I can just feed him files, but I would like to know why he does not know where to find them.
Exact error from the event log:
The "Default Agent thakur" service had an exception: Exception message: Problem loading custom assemblies: Could not load file or assembly file: /// C: \ Windows \ ServiceProfiles \ NetworkService \ AppData \ Local \ Temp \ BuildAgent \ 1 \ System.Core.dll 'or one of its dependencies. The system cannot find the specified file. (type Exception) Trace stack exception:

The system cannot find the specified file. (type Exception) Trace stack exception:
Nothing happens in the logs after "Exceptional stack trace:".
