TF400324: Team Foundation services are not available from server…

Problem

We faced the TFS connection failure problem while connecting TFS source project from Visual Studio 2013. We got the error message “TF400324: Team Foundation services are not available from server – The underlying connection was closed: An unexpected error occurred on a receive”.

Complete error message:

TF400324: Team Foundation services are not available from server TFS-Server.
Technical information (for administrator):
 The underlying connection was closed: An unexpected error occurred on a receive.

Solution

After I have analysed some time, found the following quick fix to resolve this error.

1. Close Visual Studio Solution and related applications.
2. Browse the TFS AppData Cache folder path: %LocalAppData%MicrosoftTeam Foundation5.0Cache
3. Delete all the contents under the folder Cache (don’t worry it will be automatically re-created when you open Visual Studio and connect TFS again),
