Access denied when opening project using project professional client application

Hi,
I have some users who are members of 'Team Members for Project Web App'.
They can open projects using the browser just fine.
But, if they try to open it using the menu  :  Projects Tab > Open > In Microsoft Project,
the project professional client application starts but shows an error : 'you do not have the required permissions to perform the operation'
Is there some restrictions for 'Team Members for Project Web App' with the project professional application?

Indeed team members should not be added to the PM group. But they should not either edit directly the proejct plan. The process is the following:
The PM assignes a resource on a task, either from PWA or MS Project Pro,
The PM publishes the project plan,
The TM goes to the task link in the quick launch menu on the left side,
The TM enters the actual work done on his assignments and submit it to the PM,
The PM goes to the approval center, sees the task updates waiting for approval, approves or rejects the task updates,
The PM opens the project plan, updates the remaining work and publishes again the project the the task updates are taken into account and send to the TM.
See this
reference for Project Server 2010 but still applicable for 2013.
Hope this helps,

  • "Access Denied" when opening a PDF in a browser

    Hi,
    I have a problem I can't solve.
    I'm creating a intranet website. In this, i want display PDF but the browser reply "Access DenIed".
    I stock my PDFs in a network drive where i have the rights on folders and files.
    I try to unckeck "Enable protected mode" but no change.
    I try to open with another PDF reader (Foxit) and it works, but i want keep Adobe by default reader
    for my users.
    I have the last version of Abobe Reader XI (11.0.05.3).
    Thanks.

    ... and/or
    Configure Adobe Reader to not use a Web Browser to open PDF documents... (see the Adobe.com for admx files to apply this setting by group policy) (
    http://forums.adobe.com/thread/392489 )
    Start>Adobe Reader>Edit>Preferences>Internet>uncheck "Display PDF in browser"
    It seems that Adobe have recently changed the location of that setting in Adobe Reader (at least on 11.0.4).  They've now hidden it under Edit > Accessibility > Setup Assistant > Then on page 5 of 5, there's a tick box to toggle 'Display PDF
    documents in the Web Browser'.
    However, it doesn't work like it used to though, as it won't just open a PDF in Adobe Reader instead of the browser.  It will instead ask to disable Enhanced Protected Mode to run acroPDF.dll. 
    And if you try disabling the Adobe PDF reader add-on in Manage Add-ons to try and force it to open in Reader, then when you visit a PDF link, you just get the same blank page (shown below) with the black crossed out circle in the top left, but without the
    message bar at the bottom of the window.  The only way to open the PDF is to either turn off Enhanced Protected Mode and allow acroPDF.dll to run or if there's an original link to the PDF, right click and select 'save-as'.
    I think it's about time Adobe released an x64 PDF viewer...  Or at least there should be an open/save dialogue box in IE.
    If you've got Reader 11.0.4 installed, you can try it for yourself with this PDF link:
    http://helpx.adobe.com/pdf/adobe_reader_reference.pdf
    (The below screenshot is with 'Display PDF documents in the Web Browser' UN-ticked in Adobe Reader settings, so it should open in Reader instead.  But it doesn't.  And with the Reader add-on disabled you get the same page, but without the
    message at the bottom.)

  • "Access denied" when opening report on RAS Server

    I'm sure I'm doing something wrong, but I've only been able to open a report using the rassdk protocol from the server where my java code is running.    This is fine, but I was hoping for efficiency sake that I could have reports reside on the RAS server itself.
    My ras server definitely has a Crystal report called EBTest.rpt in the c:\temp directory.  I run this code...
    ReportClientDocument rcd = new ReportClientDocument();
    rcd.setReportAppServer(ReportConstants.RAS_HOST);
    rcd.open("c:\\temp\\EBTest.rpt", OpenReportOptions._openAsReadOnly);
    rcd.close();
    According to the JavaDoc, this should work, but I get this error ...
    Caused by: com.crystaldecisions.sdk.occa.report.lib.ReportSDKServerException: Access denied. Please check directory setting for files you can access.---- Error code:-2147467259 Error code name:failed

    Am I missing something trivial?  
    Thanks,
    Eric

    Now that I've got it working, I expected that the RAS-local approach would be much faster than the RAS-remote, but I didn't find that to be the case in a quick test that I did.  Is this what you'd expect?  Or is there a different part of the ReportClientDocument interaction that would be more efficient. 
    From what I've seen, the ReportClientDocument construct and open() are one of the expensive aspects of the report rendering.
    Enclosed are the results from a test I did:
    --PERF--20 iteration test for 'Test local report initialization'
    --PERF--WARMED UP in 3359 ms
    --PERF--,Iterations          ,Total Time (mS)     ,Avg(ms)/Iteration   ,Transactions/sec   
    --PERF--,20                  ,35515               ,1775.75             ,0.5631423          
    --PERF--20 iteration test for 'Test remote report initialization'
    --PERF--WARMED UP in 1828 ms
    --PERF--,Iterations          ,Total Time (mS)     ,Avg(ms)/Iteration   ,Transactions/sec   
    --PERF--,20                  ,37109               ,1855.45             ,0.5389528          
    And here's the bulk of the code that generated those results...
    int numIterations = 20;
    PerformanceUtils.runPerformanceTest("Test local report initialization", numIterations, new Command(){
         public void execute() {
              try{
                   ReportClientDocument rcd = new ReportClientDocument();
                   rcd.setReportAppServer(ReportConstants.RAS_HOST);
                   rcd.open("D:\\Program Files\\Business Objects\\BusinessObjects Enterprise 12.0\\Samples\\EN\\Reports\\triCalendarPeriod___-___Find___-___Months.rpt", OpenReportOptions._openAsReadOnly);
                   rcd.close();
              }catch(Exception e){
                   throw new RuntimeException(e);
    PerformanceUtils.runPerformanceTest("Test remote report initialization", numIterations, new Command(){
         public void execute() {

                   rcd.setReportAppServer(ReportConstants.RAS_HOST);

  • Access denied when trying to use PDF printer as normal user

    I have Acrobat 8 professional installed on a computer running Windows XP SP3. When i try to print a document to pdf from any program as Administrator it performs just fine. When i log on as a normal, restricted, user i get the window popup asking for a file name and location and whereever i try to save a file i get "access denied" error.
    Users have right to write and modify in all of the folders i've tried to save to (desktop, my documents, custom made folders), but i think the problem is with the temp file being written to some system folder where restricted users don't have permission to write. Did anyone encounter a similar problem, and how did you solve it? What directories do the normal users need access to in order to perform printing.
    Thank You

    The forum added some nice links and i found my answer here http://forums.adobe.com/message/1179199#1179199 - changed the registry key permissions and it's working like a charm. Thank you.

  • 'access denied' when opening from Office

    Hello,
    I've experienced this 'access denied' message too. Now I realized that when opening AdobeReader manually all works fine.
    But when Reader is closed and is opened by Office after saving as PDF file - it still shows this error message.
    There's nothing wrong with the file - when opening manually from inside of Reader.
    Is it a problem with commandline execution?
    I'm sorry for any problems you got - especially from reading my english...

  • ACCESS DENIED when trying to use custom site template to create new Subsite

    I am trying to create a new site using a custom template. I am the new admin here at the company. Other also are having "access denied" errors when trying to create the site using these custom templates. 
    However I can still create a site using the out of the box templates. I have given myself site collection admin (primary) and I am a farm administrator as well. Any ideas on why I keep getting access denied to specific templates?
    The entire site collection is using the custom template. When I try to create a new site under the site collection with a custom template now, it says "access denied". Any ideas?
    Thanks!
    Note - I am able to use the Custom Site Templates in the test environment without any issues. Only in the production/live environment am I getting the access denied error.

    I am not finding anything that comes up in the ULS logs about the access denied. I tried creating the site in the test environment using the custom template and it worked. I go to the production environment and try to create the site with the same template
    and get "error:access denied - current user domain\user" I checked in the ULS logs as soon as the access denied appears (pretty quickly after pressing create) and there is nothing at that specific time. This is a huge problem, is there any way to
    work around or fix this? I'm a new admin.

  • Add Group By Categories On Project Professional 2013 when Opening Projects

    I don't know how we got one category to show up, but how do you add "Group by" categories when you are opening a project.  What I mean is when you: 
    >Open Project Professional 2013
    >Click "Open Other Projects"
    >Select (PWA) Project Server Account
    >Click "Browse"
    >Double-click "show me the list of all projects"
    As you can see in the image, we can currently group by "Project Departments".
    I initially thought, all I needed to do was create a Enterprise custom field (Project Entity), but I do not see the new field as a way to group the projects.
    I can create a groups or filters using the new field, but the option does not show up in Project Professional 2013?
    Anyone have any clues?
    It's me

    Is it possible to group by two look up fields, currently I can sort by Project Manager OR Project Status. I'd like to see both. For example I'm a project manager, I use the Group By option to group my projects together, but there are still a lot. I'd like
    to further group, sort or filter to see only Active projects where I am the Project Manager. Any way to do that within Project Server 2013? We are on SP1. Thank you.

  • JDeveloper 11.1.2.3 hangs when opening project from JDeveloper 11.1.1.6

    Hello! I have a problem here which I can't solve. I also asked this question here: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/14365031/jdeveloper-11-1-2-3-hangs-when-opening-project-from-jdeveloper-11-1-1-6/14369211#14369211 . The whole story in short. I have a JavaEE client-server project in JDeveloper 11.1.1.6, where it works like a charm. Recently I had to upgrade JDeveloper version to the latest 11.1.2.3. The first problem was that the standard procedure of migrating project from the older version of JDeveloper to the newer one did not help: IDE was hanging forever all the time with no apparent (for me) reason, log file was silent about that. Then I tried another way: I just created the same project from the beginning and put there all necessary source files, libraries, set project properties etc. Still nothing, but now found the way to obtain a kind of error at least. I ran C:\Oracle\Middleware\jdeveloper\jdev\bin\jdev.exe from the command line and got the following (e.g. when I started running debug):

  • Frequent crashing when opening projects

    10.5.8, LP 9.0.2, Mac Pro 8-core 6GB RAM
    Logic frequently stalls/crashes when opening projects. This happens most often with projects that have lots of sampler instruments (primarily VSL), but some of the time with no samplers at all. The loading window generally hangs on Vienna Instruments with projects that have them, and on Space Designer with projects that don't.
    The project this happens most frequently with is an orchestral template I'm creating. It has about 25 instances of Vienna Instruments (totalling 1.34GB worth of samples), a few channel EQs and one instance of Space Designer. Other projects that have caused the crash include about 10 native software instrument plugins, 1 Akoustic Piano and 10-15 native effect plugins. I consulted VSL tech support who said the problem was most likely with Logic. I'm inclined to agree, since the problem happens with and without any Vienna Instruments, and Vienna Ensemble Standalone has no problem loading templates with a lot of samples.
    Does anyone have any suggestions to troubleshoot? Has anyone had similar experiences? Thanks.

    Well, this has happened to me too. To the point where I've lost all the work, because Logic can't open the original project or the "crashed" copy it creates. Happened again with a new project I'm working on, albeit on a much more modest laptop system.
    Annoying. Makes me think about switching DAWs...what else can you do if Logic can't be trusted.

  • Priemier Elements 12 pops up a error screen when opening project." No disc in drive E.Please insert

    Priemier Elements 12 pops up a error screen when opening project." No disc in drive E.Please insert disc to continue." My DVD drives are  F and D. What do I have to do to get rid of this error?

    charkmapman
    What computer operating system is your Premiere Elements 12 running on?
    In versions of Premiere Elements earlier than 12, the answer for that type of "No disc" message was usually related to SmartSound/Sonicfire Pro 5 feature. But, there is no SmartSound/SonicfirePro 5 feature in version 12, only Music Scores without the SmartSound name.
    Consequently, I would suggest an uninstall, do a ccleaner run through (regular cleaner and registry cleaner parts), reinstall.

  • Photoshop cs4 access denied when trying to install from disc in Windows 7 64bit.

    Photoshop cs4 access denied when trying to install from disc in Windows 7 64bit. I tried it in
    safe mode and it starts to install but get an error there as well.
    What do I do?

    So when you put the disk in it won't run correctly? When the disk is inserted you should have a window pop up with 2 options. 1 to install and the other to see what is on the disk. Choose to explore or open the disk. Go to the CS4 folder where the photoshop .exe file is (that will run the setup), right click on the .exe file and choose run as Admin and it should start. See if it will install. If not then read below.
    I am not sure how far you got in the install before so chances are you will have to run the CS4 cleanup utility. 2 levels to run at but don't use 1 or 2 just type in the number 3.
    http://www.adobe.com/support/contact/cs4clean.html
    You may need to run the windows installer cleanup utility too
    http://support.microsoft.com/kb/290301
    Before you try to reinstall the software ensure that adobe reader is not installed. If it is remove it. It has caused issues in the past with vista and CS4 installs.
    Also turn off windows Defender and any anti-virus software. You can keep UAC on in Windows 7.
    During the CS4 install at 90 percent it will almost stop and may take 5 to 10 mins to finish. This is normal. What a pain huh......
    After install is finished, reboot
    After reboot, go to the CS4 64 bit or 32 bit icon (depends on 32 or 64 bit Windows 7) in start area, right click on CS4 64 bit (if you have windows 7 64 bit) and choose properties, compatibility tab and then check run as Admin at the bottom area. Hit apply, ok to close out.
    Now start CS4 and run the updater.
