That stsadm command provisions a sharepoint web application for use with TFS, but you can use the SharePoint UI to provision a Web application.

The link below is to someone with a similar problem. Your exact issue may be different, but the end result is the same: You just need to get the application created.

I write the TFS install guide. In the new one, we don't recommend stsadm; we just link out to the Sharepoint docs and suggest people use the UI to make a web app on port 80 with NTLM auth. The second link is to the sharepoint docs for how to create a web application -- basically just use the default settings.

Good luck!
