Which version of TFS are you using?

For 2008, I do the same thing, I actually changed the web service config file 
to set the directories, I was able to get it pretty close to our developer 
configuration so that I could get WiX working with the same settings for both 
environments.

Subject: [WiX-users] WiX and TFS Build


Here's what I'm trying to do: I have two solutions - one for my main
application and its associated projects and another for my database (VS
.dbproj) and its associated projects. What I'd like to do is include the
output from the database project (a .dbschema and some SQL scripts) in my
installer (which exists in the main application solution.) This involves
having TFS build the DB solution immediately before the main application
solution. I've got that part working properly, but I'm having trouble
referencing the output of the DB solution from my installer. 

I'm using relative paths to reference the output in my .wxs file (e.g.
<?define DBProjectOutputDir =
"..\..\MyDatabaseSolution\MyDatabaseProject\sql\"?>) which works fine
locally, but fails when building via TFS build. This is because TFS Build
changes the output dir of each project to one common location. Instead of
the path to my database project being
"..\..\MyDatabaseSolution\MyDatabaseProject\sql\" like it is when building
locally, it gets set to something like "..\..\..\Binaries\Release\". How can
I get around this and have my WiX project build locally and via TFS?
