I have VSTS 2010 RTM and Silverlight 4 RTM.

I just installed TeamPulse and when I try adding user, I get this error.

Hi,

I got the same problem and I was able to fix it by folowing these steps

1) Find the .net 4 assembly ( System.Data.Linq.dll )
I took it from the gac:

C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\assembly\GAC_MSIL\System.Data.Linq\v4.0_4.0.0.0__b77a5c561934e089

2) Copy that assembly to the UserManagment folder:

C:\Program Files\Telerik\TeamPulse\UserManagement\bin

3) Refresh page --> now should work.

If you don't want to mess with GAC, you can do this:

Go to <your drive letter>:\Program Files\Telerik\TeamPulse\UserManagement
Edit the web.config and add the following line to

<assemblies>
<add assembly="System.Data.Linq, Version=4.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b77a5c561934e089"/>

That will also fix your problem.
