Ablecommerce in source control (VS2010 TFS)

[PeteMVG]

Hi,

I need several developers to work on the installation of Ablecommerce we are developing.

For all our other projects we use Team Foundation Server as our source control. The problem here is that the Encrypted Data section causes errors (Failed to decrypt using provider 'DataProtectionConfigurationProvider'.) on other machines, which means that the project that was put into TFS does not run on anyone else's machine.

What's the work around to this?

thanks
Pete

I haven't used TFS as we still use SVN here. We have the same problem, and our solution is that certain files (like encryption.config and database.config) are not included into the source control. Then they can be customized for each local copy of the files. That way each of our developers gets to have their own individual instance of the website data that they can abuse.
