TFS: sometimes “Object reference not set to an instance of an object” means “out of disk space”
Posted by jpluimers on 2015/09/03
A while ago, we encountered this error when doing merges in TFS (non-GIT ones):
---------------------------
Microsoft Visual Studio
---------------------------
Source Control Merge Wizard
Merge encountered 1 error(s) and 0 warning(s).
First error/warning encountered:
Server was unable to process request. ---> Object reference not set to an instance of an object.
See output tool window for information on any other errors.
---------------------------
OK Help
---------------------------
In the end this was caused by an out of disk space on the volume containing the TFS datastore.
