Create Project Web App Instance - Failed to find Project Site object. Are there any database mounted?

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.

Database error when creating a web app instance

I'm trying to setup Project 2013 on SharePoint 2013 and am at the point where you create a Project web app instance. I'm on step 3 on this page.
http://alinimer.com/2013/02/28/install-configure-and-deploy-project-server-2013-part-4/
I'm getting an error saying "Provisioning Failed - see the Application event Log." In the event log it says
Failed to provision site PWA with error: Microsoft.Office.Project.Server.Administration.ProvisionException: Failed to provision database.

I'm new to Project Server and fairly new to SharePoint so is this something that's easy to fix? The database was created new for Project.
Free computer help and tips http://www.onlinecomputertips.com

Looking at the code, it flags this if the database specified is not empty. Can you validate that the database is either new or does not have any tables, views, sprocs, etc?

Editing the Schedule PDP, at the Page Details Web Part, inserted wrong Project Web App URL. Cannot access Project Schedule Pages.

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.

I need to remove a rig/wires from my final cut pro 7 project. Can Apple Motion 4 remove wires/rig? Are there any rig removal plugins for final cut pro? Thanks!

I need to remove a rig/wires from my final cut pro 7 project. Can Apple Motion 4 remove them? If not can anyone recomment any plugins for Final Cut Pro or Motion that can remove them. Thanks!!

In Motion 5 there is a plugin from CoreMelt called "SliceX" that does this. But I don't know anything in Motion 4 that will do it. You may get more help posting in the appropriate "Final Cut Studio" section of this forum.

Error when create a project in newly Enabled features for Project Web App site collection in Project Server 2013

I Enable the Project Web App site collection features in Project Server 2013 based on

when i try to create a project i get error "GeneralUnhandledException"
Yasser

Also, 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?

How many enterprise projects we can create in a single project web app site in project server 2013 enterprise?

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 app

As 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.

Office Web Apps - Office Web Apps was unable to find the specified certificate

Hello,
Let me start by saying I did not see a forum listed for Office Web Apps and figured the SharePoint forum would be the second best place to post this. With that said, here's my issue...
I installed OWA 2013 on a Windows Server 2012 (not R2) VM and installed all the prereqs as described here: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/jj219455(v=office.15).aspx Since this is a test environment, I'm planning on using a self-signed
cert which appears to be supported based on info found here: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/2e147f11-6f47-46bc-90bf-b2f179958d11(v=office.15)#certificate.
I created the cert using the following command:
New-SelfSignedCertificate -DnsName owa.test.local -CertStoreLocation cert:\LocalMachine\My
I then edited the cert's properties in the Cert Manager MMC snap-in and added a friendly name of "2014_OWA_Cert". I then proceeded to try and create the OWA farm by running:
New-OfficeWebAppsFarm -InternalUrl "https://owa.test.local" -CertificateName "2014_OWA_Cert" -EditingEnabled
This produces the following error:
New-OfficeWebAppsFarm : Office Web Apps was unable to find the specified certificate.
At line:1 char:1
+ New-OfficeWebAppsFarm -InternalUrl "https://owa.test.local" -CertificateNa ...
+ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+ CategoryInfo : ObjectNotFound: (:) [New-OfficeWebAppsFarm], ArgumentException
+ FullyQualifiedErrorId : CertificateNotFound,Microsoft.Office.Web.Apps.Administration.NewFarmCommand
What gives?

Hi Waqas
Thanks for your help with this. I had a look at both posts, the URL works fine from the WAC server and I am not using a System account to test docs.
Also, this is a production site that is accessible over the Internet, so we are using https therefore the WOPIZone is external-https.
Issue #3 in the above blog link does not reflect the same error I see on my servers.
I also had a look at the information in this link: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ff431687.aspx#oauth
Problem: You receive a "Sorry, there was a problem and we can't open this document" error when you try to view an Office document in Office Web Apps.
If you added domains to the Allow List by using the
New-OfficeWebAppsHost cmdlet, make sure you’re accessing Office Web Apps from a host domain that’s in the Allow List. To view the host domains in the Allow List, on the Office Web Apps Server open the Windows PowerShell prompt as an administrator and run
the Get-OfficeWebAppsHost cmdlet. To add a domain to the Allow List, use the
New-OfficeWebAppsHost cmdlet.
I have not added any domains to the Allow list so this did not help either. Should I add the domain?
Any further help with this is much appreciated.
Thanks again.

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?
Thanks

Hi,
In the above provided articles the video briefs with the steps with which we can build the reports according your requirements.

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.

Editing the Schedule PDP, at the Page Details Web Part, inserted wrong Project Web App URL. Now, cannot access Project Schedules.

Luis,
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.
Cheers,

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:

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.

Seems like an error occurred during site collection provisioning with the project server features. The provisioning process was interrupted from a system error and doesn't recovered after system restart.

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.

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://sharepoint.rackspace.com/sharepoint-2013-troubleshooting-an-access-issue-with-a-custom-master-page
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

If 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.

Access to Project Web App

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?
sachin

You 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
