Cannot create New Team Project with TFS power tools 2008

I am in the process of creating a new team project by executing the tfpt createteamproject command as a background process in my .net application. However, I get the following exception from the log :

I also got problems with the double quotes when specifying the process template (I use the MSF for Agile Software Development v5.0)

I have all admin and team project creation permissions setup, but can anyone point out wats going wrong here?

Thanks, Tara.

I would respectfully suggest that you don't have full rights set up! Can you do it from the UI?

Edit just reread.

version of the Visual Studio Team System web service. Please upgrade your client to a version compatible with Visual Studio Team System 2010

Does this mean that you're using a 2010 command prompt?

Edit:

Since you're using the TFPT -can you use the powershell scripts? I suspect they'll fail the same way. Short of asking MS as to when the TFPT will be ported to 2010 I'm afraid I'm at a bit of a loss - sorry.

I realised there's a workaround here. VSTS 2010 has a built in command to automate project creation so am gonna try this out. Cannot wait for Power tools till it's shipped with VS 2010..:D
