Project Server 2010 - Update Scheduled Queue job failed with error message" Error no 131- AssignmentAlreadyExists"

Hello,
When I tried to update the schedule of the project , the job failed with the error message " AssignmentAlreadyExists". I further looked into the ULS logs but it wasn't that helpful.
This is the message I found in ULS logs "type = UpdateScheduledProject failed at Message 5 and is blocking the correlation Errors: AssignmentAlreadyExists,Leaving Monitored Scope (FillTypedDataSet -- MSP_WEB_SP_QRY_ReadTimeSheetAssignmentsAndCustomFieldData).
Execution Time=398.730006187937"
Pplease help me to understand the root cause of this problem.
I have verified all the assignments in the plan and I did not find any duplicates.
Thanks in advance.

This issue might need detailed troubleshooting, I would suggest you raise a support case with Microsoft.

[Project Server 2010] Maximum Number of Job processor Threads in the queue settings

Hello,
I have a farm with SharePoint 2010 and Project Server 2010 installed. The farm contains:
2 web front end servers
3 application servers
Each servers has 4 processors
The SQL databases are installed on our database servers.
The Microsoft Project Server Queue Service 2010 is started on the 2 web front end servers and on 1 applicative server.
We have two instances of PWA are installed on this farm.
I have calculated that the number of availabe processors we could have on this farm is : 4 processors X 3 application servers (the ones where the project queue is started) = 12. Is that correct? I'm not sure of the definition of the applicaton
server that is used in
this article )
If I set the Maximum Number of Job Processor Threads (in the queue setting) to 2 per queue and per instance. We could have 2 Job processor X 3 application servers X 2 pwa instance = 12 threads to operate at the same time, is it correct?
If yes, do you think this is a too high number of threads?
Thanks for your help
Aline

Hi Aline,
These settings are for fine tuning the servers, and are only one of many performance parameters. If you notice the response from the server is slow, regarding Queues, then I would think about amending these upwards, but also with a careful eye on processor
utilisation. If you up the thread count and the system isn't any more performant, then I would look elsewhere for perf improvements. Before you do anything of course, baseline the performance of the system.

Project Server 2010 - Different Schedule Dates for Different Users -- Same File

We have an issue regarding users viewing the same schedule, different machines.
The PMs have a schedule that was built in 2007 by the offshore team. We are running Project Server 2010 corporate, and they the PMs here on site have Project Professional 2010. Within the last couple of weeks, the PMs have noticed changes in
the dates.
When I open the schedule, I see the expected dates rendered in both PWA and Project Professional. Both draft and published versions are the same regardless of where the schedule is opened for editing. There are two PMs managing the schedules.
One sees what I see--the expected dates. The other sees differences in dates--months, in fact. Scheduled end date is 10/22/2013. When the second PM opens the schedule, he sees a scheduled end date of 2/17/2014.
I advised them that the offshore team needed to upgrade to 2010 due to the differences between 2007 and 2010. Additionally, and I could be wrong, having the server run in compability mode for so long (the upgrade was done in May 2013), is not ideal.
(Offshore team has since updated to 2010.)
Any thoughts on what could be causing this issue? Corrupt version of Professional? Settings askew?
Thank you,
L.D.

My bad, I didn't know that you were not using Project Server.
Then the file might be corrupted.
Try the
XML export and the
save for sharing method to repair it.
Hope this helps,

Project Server 2010 export to Excel 2007 fails

I keep getting the following error when I try to export Resource Availability to Excel. I am using Project Server 2010, Excel 2007, IE8, Windows 7. I have PS set as a intranet site with low security set. Coworkers with the same setup are
not having this issue. I have tried exporting to Excel with Excel open, Excel closed, on a hardwire network connection, on wireless network connection, on my corporate VPN and not on my corporate VPN.
Microsoft Office Excel cannot access the file "URL here" for the possible reasons:
-The file name or path does not exist.
-The file is being used by another program
-The workbook you are trying to save has the same name as a currently open worklbook.
Please provide suggestions on what to try differently to make the export work. I have tried downloaded other version of IE and have the same issue.

Hi Julia,
since nobody jumped in, I'll give a try!
Have you tried to reinstall Excel or at least repair it?
Hope this helps,

Project Server 2010 - Updated User Profile - Display Name is Old Name

Similar to question"It shows the Domain\Logon account instead the User Name (up right corner)" but not quite the same. I also checked on the related topics list and could not find a solution.
We have a Resource in Project Server 2010 whose name changed. This included a change to her loginID as well as her email address. I went in to PWA > Server Settings > Security > Manage Users and changed the
Name, Email Address, and User Login Account fields accordingly. When the user goes into Project Server or any of the Project Sites, her old User Name is reflected. If she accesses any other SharePoint site (not associated with Project Server) her
new name shows up in the upper right hand corner of the screen.
We do not have AD Synchronization turned on.
How can we edit the name that appears in the upper right corner of the screen?

Hi,
Use Display name shown on right hand site is not from PWA, its from SharePoint User profile. When we make change to user display name, sometime SharePoint Still retain the old account and also add new account. To fix the issue we have to remove the user
profile from PWA root site.
Open PWA and navigate to following path
Site Actions>>Site Settings>>People and Groups
Click on More from left hand site list of groups
Select appropriate group, belongs to the user
Select the user and from Actions tab remove the user. (you may see two entries old and new), Either you can delete both or click on each account to validate correct user ID.
Once again navigate to PWA>>Server Settings>>Manage User
Edit affected user and click on Save
Have user log on to PWA and validate the result.

The hardware key was changed and we requested a new license with new hardware key,system was runing fine for couple of weeks with all background jiobs for SPAM./SAINT Ok .We performed EHP4 on this system.
But now this issue is here,so i guess we should troubleshoot.
Please let me know any other pointers.

PS In SLICENSE new installed license is fine and all users can login.

Project Server Cumulative Update August 2013 install failed due to login issue/interruption

Hi all,
I was in the process of running the installer (exe) for the August 2013 Cumulative update "uber" hotfix for SharePoint 2013 and Project Server today (KB2817615) on three servers. I was connected to the servers via Remote Desktop, logged in as the
Farm account.
On one of the servers, somewhere during the installation, my Remote Desktop session got "hijacked" by another user who was not aware of the ongoing process..so he was logged in as the Farm account for a few minutes.
I logged back in and found that the install dialog was gone...apparently the install stopped due to the interruption in logins. So I attempted to re-run the hotfix installer, but it now says "There are no products affected by this package installed
on this system."
I've tried clearing the timer cache and running the installer using "PACKAGE.BYPASS.DETECTION.CHECK=1" but neither has worked.
Any ideas on how this can be fixed or re-run?
Thank you for your assistance!
Regards,
Kevin Worthington

Hi Kevin,
Were you able to resolve this issue. I didn't have any interruptions or login issue, the installation cancelled itself!
Any help will be highly appreciated.
Thanks

NetConfig job failing with RME_CDL1031

Hi,
I have a NetShow job that is failing with this message:
ERROR:RME_CDL1031:Transport session to device failed Couldnot enter ENABLE mode from USER mode on Device. Couldnot enter ENABLE mode from USER mode on Device.
I have double checked the credentials in DCR (manually and using the 'check device credentials' option) and its configured properly.
Could you please advice what is wrong?
Thanks,
Amit

If you are using telnet, the easiest thing to do is get a packet capture of all tcp/23 traffic between the RME server and the device when running the Netshow job. This will show why RME was unable to enter enable mode.

Hi Paul,
We are using a third party tool called UMT Project Essentials 2012, recently we have removed the tool from sharepoint central admin and uninstalled from the server.
We tried deleting some missing assemblies features web parts which are referencing to that tool but still we are not able to start the workflow and the same issue persists.
below are the log file for your reference.

Project Server 2010 Jobs All 'Waiting To Be Processed'

Hello,
We have installed Project Server 2010 for evaluation and are running into an issue when creating new projects in the Project Center. The installation included SharePoint 2010 and is a single-machine install (i.e. DB and WFE on same machine).
We can access the site without any problem and when accessing the Project Center and electing to create a new project from Basic Project Plan template, the interface processes the request and then informs us that the request was taking a long time to process
and to check the Manage Queue Jobs interface for status.
Reviewing the queued jobs reveals four queued tasks for Project Create, Project Publish Notifications, Project Publish and Start Workflow, all with a Job State of 'Waiting To Be Processed'. When we originally ran into this issue, we realized that the
User Profile Synchronization Service was configured to run with the Network Service account and that the two relevant ForeFront Identity Manager services were not running. We had read that this may cause the queue to not process requests, so we reconfigured
the system to use a domain account and started the User Profile Synchronization Service Application (which in turn started the ForeFront Identify Manager services).
However, this did not help and the jobs (as well as new jobs) are still waiting to be processed. We don't see any errors listed in the queue and can't really find relevant errors in the SharePoint logs or event viewer.
Has anyone else run into this problem who can provide some insight? Thanks.
John

Another thing to check John, and you may well find evidence in the ULS logs, is that the queue service is really running. Just looking in Services isn't enough. When the queue service starts it will check for the presence of PWA sites within
each and every (probably just one) Project Service Application you have running. It will then spawn an extra process for each Service Application it finds that has one or more PWA instances. So you should always see at least two Microsoft.Office.Project.Server.Queuing.exe
processes running within Task Manager -and if you just see one the looking in the ULS logs should give an indication why it didn't start up (re-starting will give you a fresh entry in the log - which will be easier than searching through lots of logs.
Best regards,
Brian.

Unable to launch project schedule in project pro 2010 via the icon in project center on project server 2010

Unable to launch a project in project pro 2010 via the icon in project server 2010 project center. Nothing happens. The pull down "open" menu doesn't do anything either. Can't open the schedule in project pro in read-only or edit mode.
This is happens to a handful of project managers. Can't find a common thread.
Janice Weaver

Hi Brian - the latest 'weight on my shoulders' was vacation :) - so just catching up - first day back. We do have a fix coming in August CU for a problem that sounds very similar - but we would need to see your data to confirm if this is the case
or not. So the choices at the moment are to wait until we release the week after next, or open a support incident - but we would likely need assistance from your DBA to either run some queries or get us a copy of the DBs.
Best regards,
Brian.

Updating custom fields in project server 2010/2013 using psi

Hi,
I have two custom fields . Lets call them A and B.
A has some content. Now i want B to have the same content as A . B is a formula custom field wher b=[A] .
now b is empty data and A has data.
how do i get column in B be populated.
i tried manual publish. IT worked but i have several projects.so iam looking for a script to do bulk publish so that data in B can be populated with data in A
a) i checked out project (CheckOutProject)
b) published project (QueuePublish())
c) checked in project (QueueCheckInProject())
however i donot get the value of A reflected in B using. Am i doing something wrong?
Pls help.Any pointers towards a script would behighly appreciated.
i am using project server 2010
Thanks
Su

Hello,
You probably want to use Project Pro to do the publish so the calculation happens and updates field B. For bulk publish using project pro use VBA to automate project pro to open each project then do save and publish etc.

Project Server 2010 Site Template Update

Hi,
I have a Project Server 2010 environment in which there are several site templates created and there are about 500 projects.
Now, I have the requirement of changing some templates (add a list, some fields in a existing Risks and Issues lists, etc.)
How Can I update current template?
If I update current template, Will the sites created be updated with the new lists and fields? Or Should I do these additions by hand?
Thanks!

Hi,
Another related question,
We have created custom Web Template by saving as a template one site. Later we have created 20 sites using that Web Template. And now we want to update this template to "Site Template v2". We create other Web Template and now we have two
"Site Template v1" and "Site Template v2". Should we remove "Site Template v1" from Solutions Gallery? Or it is neccesary while exists sites created with version 1?

Error Message while Approving Tasks in Project Server 2010

Hi All,
While performing Tasks approvals in MS Project 2010 I am getting below error message:
An Error Occured while processing one or more items. This was caused by one of the following:

Background:
We are gearing up to upgrade our Project Server from 2003 to 2010; as part of this process we have installed MS Project Server 2010 on our dev environment. We created Test Project plans and assigned ourselves (we admins) to these plans and all of us have
admin privileges.

Hi, Can you give a bit more detail on how your generating the task approval. Are you going into myTasks and doing self assignment to your test project plans or are you generating these approvals via outlook or are you updating a timesheet and sending status?
If you're using your timesheet have you created all your timesheet periods within server settings, time and task management...Donald R. Landry

Project Server 2010 PWA Provisioning Error - System.UnauthorizedAccessException: Access is denied.

Hi,
When migrating from a Prod Environment to a Test Environment using the Project Server 2010 5 Database backup and restore process (actually 6 DB's with the Project Sites DB), upon encountering a failure during provisioning the PWA Instance, we get the errors listed
at the base of this posting in our Event Logs.
To clarify what we have done already, we have:
1. Backed up the 6 databases from the Source Environment.
2. Removed the existing PWA_Content and PWS_Content (Project Sites) databases from the Target Environment Farm.
3. Restored the 6 databases in the Target Environment.
4. Given the SP Farm Service Account 'db_owner' rights to each of the 6 restored databases.
5. Added the PWA_Content and PWS_Content databases (exact same names) to the Target Environment.
6. Locked down (offline/stopped), all of the SharePoint Content databases in the Farm except for the PWA_Content database.
7. Run the PWA Provisioning process from the 'Project Server' SharePoint Service in Central Admin.
It is during the PWA provisioning that we encounter these errors.
As the Target Environment is for Test/Dev purposes, the SP Farm Service Account is setup to support all of the SharePoint Farm Services, is in the Local Admin Group of each of the Servers (App, WFE and DB), and is actually in the sysadmin
role on the DB Server.
Any suggestions on what is causing this denied access situation would be most appreciated.
Cheers,
Wayne
