Visual Studio Team Foundation beta 3 installation

After a couple of days trying and installing, finally everything  works. 
The installation of team foundation did go well but I was unable to create a team project.
the error I was getting over and over again was:
"Team Project creation fails by failing in task SharePointPortal"
Tried everything I could find but nothing worked. After I posted a call on the Microsoft forum for Team Foundation I found this post The same problem and a solution that worked.

Make sure that WSS is configured correct by:

On the tfs-server run : http://localhost:8080/services/v1.0/Registration.asmx/GetRegistrationEntries

Scroll down to the wssadmin  section:

<ServiceInterfaces>
- <ServiceInterface>
  <Name>WssAdminService</Name>
  <Url>http://PANNKAKA:17012/_vti_adm/admin.asmx</Url>
  </ServiceInterface>

Make sure that the portnumber is the same as the "Sharepoint Central Administration" web-site. If not change the site port-setting in IIS-manager.

That was the case in my situation. There was a differance between the port settings of the wss. After I changed the port setting of wss in IIS everything worked fine.
