Thank you

Hello,
If it was me, I would get the ProjectUID and pass this into the MSP_EPM_DeleteProject stored procedure on the Project Server Reporting database rather than the Reporting DB rebuild. Some say the DB rebuild using the backup and restore option
is "safer" but providing you have full DB backups beforehand then fully test it should be fine. To be 100% safe, I would raise a support ticket with Microsoft if you are not happy with using one of the two options. Regarding the questions you have
- yes take full DB backups of all PWA database before either approach then fully test after. The reporting database will effectively get rebuilt using the backup then restore option for the enterprise custom fields - this might take a long time depending on
the amount of data you have and the specs of the servers. Some links below for Reporting DB rebuilding:

Unable to view Data Analysis in Project Server 2007

Hi,
I am currently using Project server 2007. One of our PM is not able to view Data Analysis information which are available to other PM.
It says 'The query cannot be processed. Either the user doesn't have access to Analysis service Database or the database doesn't exist"
We checked the following.
Tools >
Internet options > Security tab > Click Trusted Sites >
Custom Level > Search for Access data source across domains and its enabled.
Kindly advice. Thanks in advance!

Hi Nathik,
You should also check that the PM in question has not been granted specific permission. If he doesn't have the "View OLAP Data" and "View Data Analysis" permissions, he will not be able to use the data analysis. Also check
that the PWA URL is in the trusted site of IE. Finally press CTRL F5 to clean IE cache. Check also that the OLAP cubes were successfully built.
A good way for you to debug is to use your admin account on his machine to see if it is a permission issue or a IE setting issue.
Hope this helps,

Can't create data analysis views in windows 7/project server 2007

In Project Server 2007, when trying to create a new Data Analysis view or edit an existing one, we get the following error: "An error was encountered in loading the page". Using the F12 developer tools, I tracked it down to the following line:
"cn = new ActiveXObject("ADODB.Connection"), and in javascript the more specific error is "Automation server can't create object".
I assumed it was a browser permissions issue, and so I ensured the site is in trusted sites, and set the security level to low, but the same error is still occurring.
This error only occurs for users who are on Windows 7. This page works fine for users on Vista. The Windows 7 box has IE 9, the Vista box has IE 7.
Is Project Server 2007 supported in Windows 7/IE 9? Is there another security setting to look for?
edit: I have also checked the registry on the client and confirmed that adodb.connection is registered, and the dll exists.
Thanks,
Mike G.

Hi Mike,
If you refer to
this link, IE9 is supported by PS2007. Anyway, in the F12 developer tool, try to set the default browser to IE8. Also add the PWA url to the compatibility site settings in IE.
Hope this helps,

Unable to open PWA in browser and MSP on application server in project server 2007. ERROR: Sending the Soap message failed or no recognizable response was received.

Hi All,
I am using project server 2007 and WSS 3.0.
I have been facing a strange issue for couple of days. I am unable to open PWA in browser and MS Project Pro on application server.
Everything is correct whether it is URL or MS Project profile account on MSP. This is strange because i can open same PWA/MSP from other computers (Database server / Client PCs) but not locally on server.
When i try to connect to MSP on App server, i get the following errors in event viewer.
Event Type: Error

Event ID: 16

One more issue i am facing and i guess that is related to above issue. The Issue is, when i am creating a new project, It's workspace gets created but doesn't get linked to the project and i can't link it manually because it already exists for the project.

Hi Paul ,
Thanks for reply. The project server URL was already added to the Trusted
Sites/Local Intranet areas in IE.

Project Server 2007: use cannot add lines to or recall timesheet

I have a certain user that, for some reason, cannot use the Add Lines or Recall Timesheet function in Project Server 2007 SP3. The weird thing is, it works on another laptop, so it must be something related to the user's machine - but I'm baffled as to what
the exact cause may be.
There's no error what so ever - no Error On Page as is pretty common with these behaviors.
Here's what I've tried so far:
- Internet Explorer 8 version is supported
- Deleted ActiveX controls, but these don't seem to be a prerequisite for Timesheets
- IE Compatibility mode on/off
I have no idea what else to check, and I want to make sure I've tackled everything before escalating this to SysOps for a browser/OS reinstall.

Hi DMachiels,
Have you tried to refresh your IE session deleting the cache (CTRL F5)?
Also ensure that the PWA URL is include in the IE trusted sites (intranet and internet).
Hope this helps.

Project Server 2010:- How to add Own Workspace filter in workspace web part like project server 2007

Hi All,
I am using project server 2010.
Can some one advise me how can I add Own Workspace filter option in workspace web part like project server 2007 which is showing all projects name page by page. There no filter option available. I am not sure if there is any out of box feature.
Thanks in Advance..

Nitin,
PS2010 shows by default the workspaces you have permissions to. Unfortunately, there is no more filtering options available.
The only solutions are to write a custom webpart, or develop your own SSRS Report, which you can customize the way you want.
Refer to Paul's excellent blog post on this topic here:

2 Problems after migration Project Server 2007 to 2010

Hi Everyone!!
I have 2 issues after migrate MS Project Server 2007 to Project Server 2010, in fact i had a lot issues, but i can solve almost all, so after solve all issues, just is pendings 2 issues very rare:
Backgrounds:
Migrated from: Windows Server 2008R2 - SQL Server 2008 R2 - Proejct Server 2007 with WSS 3.0 - All updates are up to date (CU is up to date) and all platform is ok
To: Windows Server 2008R2 - SQL Server 2008 R2 - Project Server 2010 SP2 - SharePoint Server 2010 SP2 - All updates are up to date (CU is up to date) and all platform is ok
3 Servers in the Farm, ----> 1WFE-1WAPP-1DB
Issues:
In the Project Center, some migrate Project don't show the icon with image about project documents, risk and issues although that project effectively have documents , risk and issues
In "Server Settings" , in section "Operational Policies" in "Project Sites" almost all projects don't show the URL with Project Site
For the issues 1 and 2, i tried some things:
Re publish all projects (approx 700 projects) with a script via PowerShell available in technet
Run the Wizard Again
Rebuild Solution
Restart the all Servers in the Farm
Restart Services ----> IIS - Project EventService - ProjectQueue - SharePoint Timer
and i can't solve it yet!!!
Please Any Ideas?

Have you restored content DB successfully?
for point 2 have you performed:
have you synchronized project site under server setting --> operational policies --> Bulk Update Project
Sites
http://pwmather.wordpress.com/2012/10/08/projectserver-2010-bulk-update-project-site-issue-ps2010-msproject-sp2010-sharepoint/
after doing this publish all the project which are having issue it may solve your 1st issue.
You can check if below condition is applies to you (PWA 2007)
You may need to use the WSS site re-linker tool –
now built in to Server Settings in PWA as “Bulk Update Project Sites”. If you have changed URL die to a different port then re-linking should get your sites in order. In upgrade scenarios the “Previous Site Path” Web application might show as a GUID
in the drop down – however it still works and will re-link the sites.

Copy Custom toolbar from one instance to another in Project server 2007

Hi,
I am currently using project server 2007. We have a number of instances in our Project server enivoronment. Is it possible to copy customized toolbar from one instance to another? If yes, how?
Thanks in advance

Hi Khaldun,
As per my reply in your previous post, here is a link explaining how to use the organizer:
Http://blogs.msdn.com/b/project/archive/2010/10/22/tips-and-tricks-copy-custom-views-filters-tables-and-other-elements-to-other-projects.aspx?Redirected=true
Basically, just copy the toolbar from the global source instance into a blank project file. Then do the same operation from the blank file containing your toolbar into the destination global model, still using the organizer.
Hope this helps.

Currency Symbol in Project Server 2007

Hi,
Is it possible to change the currency symbol resource wise in Project Server 2007?
I need a resource rate to be in INR and another resource rate should be in GBP.
K.Gokulraj

Yes you're correct. All enterprise resources on server's project will have the currency defined in the server settings.
Actually the options doesn't mean that more than 1 currency can be used in the projects, but that projects can be published with another currency than the one defined in the PWA server settings. Note also that you'll be warned (see screenshot below) of enterprise
projects with a different currency due to the fact that it can cause redition issues.
I'd suggest to convert the non-standard rate into the enterprise currency. You might add a resource custom to give the information on the resource native currency.
Hope this helps.

From report server database how to know reporting services server

from report server database how to know reporting services server
Thanks

Hi Ajay,
If I understand correctly, you want to know
Reporting Services server name based on report server database. Based on my research, I find that the Reporting Services server name is the computer name which install the report server. So we can try to click Start button, right-clicking Computer,
and then clicking Properties. Under Computer name, domain, and workgroup settings, you can find your computer name.
Besides, the report server database is a SQL Server database that stores the following content:
Items, Subscription and schedule definitions, Report snapshots and report history, System properties and system-level security settings, Report execution log data, Symmetric keys and encrypted connection and credentials for report data sources.
For more information about report
server database, please refer to the following link:

If there are any misunderstanding, please elaborate the issue for further investigation.

Steps to migrate Project Server 2007 from SQL Server 2005 to SQL Server 2008?

We need to migrate Project server 2007 from SQL Server 2005 to SQL Server 2008.
1. Is it as simple as doing backup and restore of databases and pointing Project Server to the new DB server? Or there are some specific steps that should be followed?
2. Article at
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd207290(office.12).aspx is about moving databases from one DB server to another (same versions). At one place, it mentions to
backup all databases but at another place it mentions that
You should only back up the Draft and Published databases from the source database server.
What should be done when moving from 2005 to 2008?
Regards,
Amit
Gupta

High Level step you can get this form Tech net or MSDN too
Shut down the SharePoint servers (App / Web)
backup all of the SharePoint and Project
Server databases from the SQL 2005 server
copy these over to the new SQL 2008 server and restore all of
the databases with the same names
script out all of the logins used by SharePoint/PS from the SQL 2005 server and create these on the SQL 2008 server
script out the Delete expired sessions SQL job from the SQL 2005 server and create this on the SQL 2008 server - or create them manually on the SQL 2008 server
repoint the SQL server DNS Alias from the SQL 2005 server to the SQL 2008 server, if SharePoint and Project Server was installed using the actual SQL server name and no alias, you can create a DNS alias for the old SQL 2005 server name that points to the SQL
2008 server. This is so that the SharePoint servers can still connect to the same SQL server name
Start up the SharePoint servers

How to consume the Calendar Exception details from Project Server 2013 to an SSRS report using PSI ?

Hello,
Can anyone guide me how to access the calendar exception details from Project Server using PSI?
I need to extract calendar details of enterprise resources , like exception name, exception type, exception start date and exception end date into my SSRS report hosted in SharePoint 2013 and 2010.
I would be helpful if I can get a sample of this. I have read through many PSI documents in fact still going through ,what PSI does and doesn't , PSI methods etc. from Project Server SDK and MSDN . Moreover, I
am a beginner in .NET programming. I am confused and have lots of questions in my mind, like which PSI service should be used in my report(is it just Calendar.svc), can we pull the details as XML type data source my SSRS report ,are
there any other configuration settings apart from " setting up an event handler by installing an event handler assembly on each Project Server computer in the SharePoint farm, and then configuring the event handler
for the Project Web App instance by using the Project Server Settings page in the General Application Settings of SharePoint Central Administration" (as per prerequisites for PSI in SDK) , how can I implement authentication settings
-(when user with proper SharePoint permission
can accesses the SSRS report )
Kindly bear with me if my questions are not appropriate .
Please do guide me, and .
Thanks in Advance!!

Hi Brendan,
Project server reporting database doesn't contain the calendar info. The only supported way to use the PSI to read the calendar info from Published database.

Need clear steps for doing performance tuning on SQL Server 2008 R2 (DB Engine, Reporting Services and Integration Services)

We have to inverstigate about a reporting solution where things are getting slow (may be material, database design, network matters).
I have red a lot in MSDN and some books about performance tuning on SQL Server 2008 R2 (or other) but frankly, I feel a little lost in all that stuff
I'am looking for practical steps in order to do the tuning. Someone had like a recipe for that : a success story...
My (brain storm) Methodology should follow these steps:
Resource bottlenecks: CPU, memory, and I/O bottlenecks
tempdb bottlenecks
A slow-running user query : Missing indexes, statistics,...
Use performance counters : there are many, can one give us the list of the most important
how to do fine tuning about SQL Server configuration
SSRS, SSIS configuration ?
And do the recommandations.
Thanks

Edsger W. Dijkstra

Hello,
There is no clear defined step which can be categorized as step by step to performance tuning.Your first goal is to find out cause or drill down to factor causing slowness of SQL server it can be poorly written query ,missing indexes,outdated stats.RAM crunch
CPU crunch so on and so forth.
I generally refer to below doc for SQL server tuning
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd672789(v=sql.100).aspx
For SSIS tuning i refer below doc.
