Project Server 2010 PWA - attempting to move folders from root to document library subfolder does not work

Hello all,
We have an issue whereby attempting to move documents from the top level folder to a subfolder in a PWA site appears to work initially, but within a few minutes the documents are moved back to the top level folder with no error message.
Uploading a document has the same effect.
Permissions are granted at all levels in the document folder.
Only some users seem to be affected.
Only some project sites are affected.
As an admin user I can successfully upload and move documents without issue.
Any thoughts on what might cause this ? I've actually never seen this before (and I have worked on a lot of SharePoint/Project Server deployments) so interested to know if anyone out there has a bright idea on how this might get fixed ?
Many Thanks

Hi,
I understand you encountered the issue when save document from Office client application to SharePoint 2010 site.
Is there any Proxy settings in networking side? Please bring up IE > Internet options > Connections > Lan settings. If so, please uncheck options in Proxy server and test the issue again.
If you have deploy GPO to add SharePoint site into Trusted sites, please check if there is any other GP associated with trusted sites that might affect the issue. You could also remove it from Trusted sites via IE options and test the issue again.
In addition, please provide more error message to help narrow down the issue, you could locate error information in Event log at least.

Project Server 2010: PWA Removing Default Project Site Security Groups When Creating a New Project

I looked for this specific issue with Project Server 2010/PWA/SharePoint and could not find an exact answer... hopefully someone can help.
We are currently using Project Server 2010 and have a number of project site templates that are used dependent upon the enterprise project type selected. Each of these project site templates have unique permissions which should create the default security
groups on the project site upon publishing/syncing:
<Project Name> Members
<Project Name> Owners
<Project Name> Visitors
<Project Name> Project Managers (Project Web App Synchronized)
<Project Name> Team Members (Project Web App Synchronized)
Web Administrators (Project Web App Synchronized)
Whether a user creates a project through PWA or Project Pro 2010 and imports the project into PWA, we get a weird result in the Site Permissions of the newly created project site. PWA will remove all default security groups from the project site template
and add a whole list of users in the Site Permissions list without groups.
Once the project is published and the project site is created, we can then go back and add those default security groups back in the project Site Permissions and even add a couple of custom groups without them being removed on all subsequent project syncs
or publishing.
How do we get PWA to not overwrite the project site templates' security groups and place each user in the proper default security groups? At the same time, how is PWA adding a number of users into the Project Site Permissions?
Thanks in advance.

Paul,
Thanks for that information. Right now we are using the Test environment to turn the Auto-sync feature back on. I suspect that the reason this is happening is due to PWA groups/categories/security templates. There may be more than one PWA group that is "overwriting"
the default project site groups upon initial creation of the project. We will look further into the security settings to tighten up the policies.

Well the error message is in Swedish but says: The installation program database is damaged. Please contact the Adobe support (which is a hard thing to do!!). I use Windows 7 Home Premium with service pack 1.

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

Project Server 2010 PWA Site corrupted? default.aspx Corrupted, contains jibberish?

Hey Everyone,
Running Project Server 2010 Server w/ SQL Server 2008 R2 back end
Sometime after 5:30 pm Friday , our main PWA site url which is
http://servername/PWA now contains the below mess of characters and text... seems the default.aspx file located in
\\servername/PWA share got corrupted, messed with? ANY ideas how to fix this? or how why this happened. really need a fix...... Thanks
Jack Galante Sr Systems Engineer

Jack,
Are you the Project Server Administrator?Does this happen for all users or just one? If just one, please see if the users system is the issue.
If it is all users, then Do you know if anybody else with approproate permissions added any custom code?
I am not really sure of the issue here. Here are a few things you could try:
1) Reboot all the servers
2) Restart the Project Server related services like Events Service and Queue Service
3) Navigate to Central Admin, and see if you restart the Project Application Service.
If none of the above work, then I would recommend contacting Microsoft Support before making any further changes.

Project Server 2010 (PWA Timesheet) Error

Hello,
I am an administrator for Project Server and had a resource submit a timesheet in error. The timesheet was approved at the time and recalled by the resource at the same time. When the resource had tried to recall, they received back an error. I delegated
as the resource and tried to recall it as the user but it gets stuck with the green loading picture and never moves past that. It seems the status update was accepted when it got approved and now the timesheet is "stuck". From the user's standpoint,
it shows only as "Submitted" in their Timesheet status, but somehow it does not let me delete the timesheet. The error received is saying Invalid object, timesheet failed/blocking correlation. Anyone have any idea how to resolve this? Can't seem
to fix this error.
This is the error i get in return:
Timesheet:
GeneralInvalidObject (20009). Details: id='20009' name='GeneralInvalidObject' uid='fc00fed3-1cb1-48b2-83b6-800b03b33f1d' parameter='nextApproverUID'.

Need to send a email alert to Projectmanger when publishing a project in project server 2010 PWA site

Hi All
When creating and publishing a project in PWA(server 2010) need to send a mail alert to the concerned project manager.
How can i achieve this..
I have configured the outgoing mail sending in sharepoint and its working fine now.
Please help me..
Thanks Advance

Nothing is built in Project Server to do this for you automatically.
They way I have done this in the past is to create a SQL job using SSIS. It runs every hour and when it sees a project schedule that has a recent PUBLISHED date then this is a trigger to send an email to project manager.
Cheers!

Project Server 2010 PWA Printing Issue

we are having issues when printing from the Project Web App schedule web part where if they went over a certain number of rows (around 42 – spooky!) the printed page was blank (although the pop-up with just the grid displayed for printing
looked just fine). This was after seeing this warning – which is expected – when you are printing a grid of more than 30 rows: Print Warning - There are more than 30 records in the current grid.
In my testing internally I saw the same, I clicked OK on the warning, the new page opened with everything looking good and I could choose my printer – but the print was blank (I did try a large plan and in this case the final 40 or so tasks printed…)
However, if I turned off the compatibility setting under Tools, Compatibility View Settings, so that these were not applied to Intranet sites then the project page does not open and it says it requires IE 7 or above for it to open.

Ankit Manchanda

Ankit,
Make sure that you have updated printer drivers, also try using different printer model

Issue in Custom Filter in PWA of Ms Project Server 2010

Hi,
i am facing an issue on setting a cutom filter in the Project Center view of PWA. I am setting a custom filter and it works fine.
Projects are filtered as per the filter. However, on selecting the filter for editing, I get a message viz. "Failure. There was an error processing the request".
I am looking for pointers and guidance to resolve this issue. Any helpin this regard will be appreciated.

Hi,
Evenif you already checked this out, it is likely to be a security issue. This functionality is managed by permissions in PWA server settings and not in the Central Admin.
Check this article :
http://msprojectnow.com/Blog/tabid/142/entryid/556/Enabling-Task-Sheet-functionality-to-Add-Yourself-to-a-Task-in-Project-Server-2010-PWA.aspx

Project Professional 2010 Not Publishing to Project Server 2010

I am having trouble publishing a project from Project Professional 2010 to the Project Server 2010 (PWA). What I am trying to publish is a master project which is contains many enterprise projects as subprojects. When I press publish, it prompts me
to save and if I click yes then it goes through and saves all the subporjects and then just stops there and doesn't publish the changes to the master project. If I press publish and click no to the save prompt then it gives me the status "sychronizing
data to server" for around 15 seconds and then just does nothing after the sychonization finishes.
It usually should be giving a "publishing job done 0%" or "publishing job completed" when it publishes, but it gives nothing like that. I also check the project through the PWA and it has not updated yet, but when I open it for editing in the client it has
everything updated and up to date, meaning that the save is working properly and just not the publishing.
All my subprojects are able to publish correctly, it's just this master project that is not working.
Does anyone know why this is happening? Is the publishing process timing out for some reason? Or is it something else?
Please help.
EDIT: The progress notification at the bottom of Project Professional just stops at "save completed sucessfully" whenever I try to publish

To check the queue, navigate to Server Settings > Manage Queue and view the jobs that are present. If there is an error when publishing you should see it in the queue.

Reports permission in Project server 2010

Hi,
I have reports created in SSRS, i need to bring those reports to Project Server PWA. How to do that? i need the steps.
Reports like Number of active resources working in Project, Number of projects in that PWA instance.
My requirement is, i have a structure like Executives - Program Managers1- 1.Project Manager 2. Project Manager.
Program Manager2 - 1. Project Manager 2. Project Manager.
Each program manger has to see only their projects(the project which comes under him) in PWA not the other Program Manager's project and Project Manager has to see only his project not the other project manager's project in the same program.
I have Executive who should see all the projects in the organization.
Can someone assist me how to execute in Project Server 2010 PWA?
K.Gokulraj

Hello,
Sounds like you might need to use the project server security to filter the data in the reports, take a look at this example:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/office/ee862408(v=office.12).aspx
To get the reports in side PWA there are several options. As you are querying this I guess SSRS in not SharePoint Integrated mode? If in SSRS Native mode you can just add page viewer web parts on the pages in the PWA site then reference the report server
report URL.

How to define a unique project level custom field in project server 2010?

Hi every one;
is it possible to define a unique project level custom field?
our client wants to have a unique custom field( project code) which doesn't allow users to save and publish projects with the same value.
for example if user A define a project and set "project code = 1" if user B define another project and wants to save "project code =1" for it, the server doesn't allow him to save this value and he has to change value for example to 2
thanks for any help

First of all you need to have Project server development environment also for coding visual studio hands on is required.
To start with PSI (Project Server interface)you need to have Development Environment of Project Server 2010.
you can get the overview from http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/office/ms457477(v=office.14).asp
