I have installed Project Server 2013. The issue is only a single user given access to PWA through project web app service application has access to the site. Even my account, that is the farm admin account has a full access right to web application that
hosts PWA is not able to log in to the project site while normal sharepoint sites i have access.
Is it by design or i am doing something wrong?
sachinYou need to add the users through project server permission by granting them access to the Project Server which will enable them to log on, this can be done dependent on security mode you have
Check this on how to add users

I Enable the Project Web App site collection features in Project Server 2013 based on
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/jj200305.aspx
when i try to create a project i get error "GeneralUnhandledException"
YasserAlso, after you provisioned PWA, are you able to get to the server settings? Did you do any configurations with PWA or using the defaults?
Are you trying to add the project using the FarmAdmin account or did you add yourself as a resource with project manager role?
Cheers!

Hi
New Installation. Sharepoint 2013, Project Server 2013 and SQL Server 2008 SP1 (another box).
When I try to create Project Web App Instance, I get
Provisioning 'PWA': Post provisioning setup failed. Exception 'Microsoft.SharePoint.SPException: Failed to find Project Site object. Are there any database mounted?
Followed by:
Failed to provision site PWA with error: Microsoft.SharePoint.SPException: Failed to find Project Site object. Are there any database mounted?
Already tried reinstalling the whole farm to no avail. Farm Admin account is used to do everything within this process.
Thanks in anticipation.Hi
I got the same error when provisioning the PWA

Can Project Web App track output produced rather than time spent?
Hi -- I understand how team members can track the amount of time that they've spent on different tasks using Project Web App. However, what I really need to keep track of is how much they've produced, rather than how much time that they've spent on
it.
For example, I would like each team member to be able to give me a weekly report that says:
# of sparkly blue widgets completed: 10
# of pink matte widgets completed: 15
# of beige widget accessories: 50
I don't care how long it took them to make any of the widgets or widget-related items. I just want to know how many each team member made in a week. Right now we do this in Excel, but I would love to figure out a way to make some sort of form in PWA
where they could just enter their numbers.
Is that possible?
ThanksHi,
In the above provided articles the video briefs with the steps with which we can build the reports according your requirements.

Reports can also be built from SQL\Sharepoint using SSRS feature. Many TechNet articles are inplace to build these reports.
The below article provides the steps to create reports from Project Professional.

Projects not showing up between project pro and project web app
I have projects that I created using project standard. Now that I have a subscription to project pro for office 365 and project online, I wanted to import these projects. If I use project pro and save a project to office365, it doesn't show up on
the project web app side. Yet I know it is there because if I try and save with the same name it says it can't because it already exists. Similarly, if I create a project on the project web app side and then try and open it using project pro, it
errors out and won't open it.Hi,
If I understand well, you had standalone projects that you'd like to import on Project Online?
Then you just have to open MS Project (connnected to your project server) then SAVE AND PUBLISH it. Be sure to fill any required information such as project custom fields.
What is the error you get while opening Project Pro? Has the project been correctly published from PWA (not just saved, and no error message in the queue)? Then is Project Pro connected to your project server?
Hope this helps.

I need a help. The environment, SharePoint and Project Server 2013 and SQL Server 2012, running on Windows Server 2008. Editing Details Web Part in a Schedule PDP Page, saved invalid Project Web App URL. After that, can display the Project Information and Project
Details Pages from the projects accessed, and can display the Project site, too. But, when I access the Project Schedule Page, receive an error page, because of the invalid URL. The message is obvious: "There
is no Web named xxxxxxx". I´ve tried to find out how to correct this, but no success, because cannot open the Project Schedule page anymore.
I would like to know if there is some way to fix it without re-installing the system. Thanks for all. If somebody need more information, have log information and page display available.Paul,
When I click Schedule after PWA Settings > Project Details Page, there comes the error.
I can download the Schedule Page. But I don't see where to change, because the wrong URL doesn't apper at the page.
I'm sending below the page that I can download. The schedule.aspx.

Have you tried this?
Navigate to the schedule PDP, in the browser address bar, append the string
?Contents=1, like thus:
https://<your PWA Address>/Project%20Detail%20Pages/Schedule.aspx?Contents=1
This will open the Webpart Maintenance page. Now, select the Details
webpart, and Delete it. Once done, navigate bacjk to the webpart page, edit page, and re-add the Details Webpart to the page.
This should fix your issue.

Falied "Configure OLAP cubes for Project Web App" in Project Server 2013
Hi
I'm trying to use the PS2013's capability for generate SSAS Cubes; but after I execute
the steps described on “Configure OLAP cubes for Project Web App (http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/jj943761.asp)” the only thing
achieved is that the state being "Processing…" and the log:
===== Initiating OLAP database build process =====
[10/11/2013 2:48 PM] Cube build request message has been added to the Project Server queue
When I check the jobs, the one who is associated with the cube creation is on "Succeeded" state but the OLAP database is never created. There is no evidence I think on the Sharepoint log.

I've used Project Web App on Sharepoint 2013. After clear job queue about force check-in then I've got this error. This made me can't access some pages in PWA anymore e.g. Project center, Resoure center, PWA setting, etc. Who have ever found this problem,
pls. help.
The pop up error msg. is "Sorry, you don't have access to this page"Hi,
According to your description, after you cleared job queue about force check-in then you can't access some pages in PWA.
Maybe you need to check in the pages which has been checked out.
If you have administrative rights, it is possible to override the check-out via the View All Site Content page:
Site Actions->View All Site Content->Pages->Hover the item you want to check in, and from the context-menu (arrow-down next to the filename), choose "Discard Check Out"
Besides, to troubleshooting the error “Sorry, you don't have access to this page”, refer to the following articles:

http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ff758656(v=office.15).aspx
In addition, as this issue is related to project server, I suggest you create a new thread on project server, more experts will assist you:

Can we leverage the functionality of the Project Web App along with SP2013?
Hi,
Could you please help?
Thanks
srabonIf you're talking about Project Web App on your SharePoint 2013 on-prem environment, yes you can, but you must install Project Server to each SharePoint server in the farm, then create Project Server Service Application.

Earned Value with Project Web App 2013?
Hi folks,
Earned Value in Project Client is quite fine, the choice of calculate against actual or status date is a nice feature. But using Project Web App I lack the option of setting the status date - is EVA in Project Web App 2013 really restricted to the actual
date? Or is the status date set automatically by approved task updates?
Thanks
OlafHi Olaf,
Unfortunately the status date cannot be set from PWA, and there is no automatic update behind. The intent is that the PM updates the status date and the tasks in MS Project Pro and the team members and executives can consult EVA from PWA.
Hope this helps,

I have MS SharePoint 2013 Enterprise and MS Project Server enterprise installed in the same server,
I have created project web app site
can anyone tell me that how many enterprise projects I can create in a single Project web app site
what is the recommended number of enterprise project per project web appAs I remember each project site is a sub site in a project Web app site collection. That means you can have a maximum of 250,000 project sites before you run out of space in the site collection. That's the boundary for sub sites in a single
site collection for SharePoint 2013. Project server doesn't have a specific limit.

i want some of my users to see all the projects in the Project Center at my top-level site, and those same users to see only the projects they own at a subsite level in Project Center. that way they could see an 'all project' view on the homepage and only
their projects on their dashboard pages (which also have an instance of Project Center web part on them). i have searched and searched but cannot find a solution to this. is there any way to acheive this functionality? thanks in advance for your assistance!I have tried this in the past, but was not successful, as far as I can recall. Once you access the project center webpart in one page, the view will be retained regardless where you see it again. (until you apply a different view or clear your browser cache).
May be an easier solution is to display a 'report' on the home page with ALL projects (much easier to do), and use the Project Center webpart for the My projects view as it is easier to achieve via Project Server Security, than a report.
