Project Server 2013: Set-SPProjectPermissionMode error

Hi,
In our environment, we need to use Project Server permission mode to fine tune permissions. According to documents, we need to run the Set-SPProjectPermissionMode command. However, when I ran it, I got the following error:
Set-SPProjectPermissionMode : There is a version mismatch between the Web server and the content databases, and connections to the data have been blocked to avoid data loss. This can happen when a service pack is not completely installed. Notify your server
administrators so that they can
upgrade the Web server and the databases to the same version. For more information about installing service packs and updates, see the Microsoft Web site (http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink?LinkID=177163).
The linked document does not offer any help. It talks about changes in Project Server 2010, while we're configuring permission mode in Project Server 2013.
Thanks for any information.
By the way, we've installed both SharePoint 2013 SP1 and Project Server 2013 SP1 (currently only one server in the farm). In Central Admin's Upgrade and Migration section, neither the content database nor the service packs (or any other updates) report any
errors.

Hello,
If you go to Central Admin check the following two pages:
Manage Servers in this Farm (in System Settings) - on this page what does the status show for each server in the farm, "Action Required" or "No Action Required". If any action is required, please resolve this before attempting
this PowerShell command again.
Review Database Status (in Upgrade and Migration) - do any of the farm databases status display action required or are they all "No Action Required"? If any of them require action, please resolve this before attempting this PowerShell command
again.

I decided to run the below command and I received a lot of errors about missing workspace. Please help if anyone can.

All,
Bulk update and post up gradation tasks was completed at time of migration.
I did notice that when opening Project Professional 2013 and unselecting
Load Resource Assignments, everything opens and runs as it should. Not sure why ? So I think for now, I'll run Project Professional 2013 without Load Resource Assignments until I find a fix.
As for (The following projects are missing the workspace webs) error, still getting them.
Thanks all for the Quick Reply's.

Approvals on Project Server 2013 - An unknown error has occurred

Migrated Project server 2010 to Project server 2013. All the quick launch pages were working after I completed the migration. Started the process of publishing projects and statusing/timesheets to update project.
Now I see "An Unknown Error has occurred".   Tried all my solutions for Project Server 2010 without success.
Event log looks clean.
Has anybody seen and resolved this issue?
Cheers!

We are having the same error with an on-premise install of Project Server 2013. This is the error from the ULS logs.

Project Server 2013 - "An unknown error has occured"

Hi !
Whenever I navigate to Project Center in Project Server 2013 the credentials window pops-up continuously even after entering correct admin account and after several clicks on OK button in credential window it says "An unknown error has occurred".
This is happening at every links. Even at Resources, Tasks, Reports, etc.. Is this Project Server 2013 stable or still has bugs in it.
I recently installed March 2013 hotfix for Project Server but still no luck. In ULS or Event Viewer I didn't got any
relevant exceptions.
I am even unable to connect to Project Server from Project Professional.
Thanks & Regards.

"An unknown error has occurred" usually means that the browser cannot resolve some data or something is missing. This can be caused by many issues. One for instance is deleting projects, but timesheets are still referencing it. Many others. This
is one of the harder issues to resolve, because often you don't find anything in the ULS.
Seeing that this error is occurring everywhere on PWA, I would first try rerunning the "SharePoint Product Configuration Wizard". If this fails at any place, that will be the first thing to fix.

Project Server 2013 Configuration Wizard Error

Hi Everyone,
I have installed SharePoint 2013 over Single Server with built in DB. Server
uses Windows Server 2008 & SQL Server 2008. SharePoint installed correctly and it is running well.
Now,
I need to install Project Server 2013, so I installed its required updated, its prerequisites, then installed it. After installation, Configuration wizard started, but it failed with following error info:-
What
is the reason of that error and how to solve this problem?
Thanks
Wa'el Mohsen

That sounds easy enough. Just two questions though:
1) what is 25774? KB? an update?
2) how do I delete it from IIS?
Thank you,

Project Server 2013 - OOB Reports Error

Hi,
I have configured PWA site and I created and published many projects. I'm trying to use the OOB reports but I have the following error when I'm trying to view the report from the PWA but if I opened the report in Excel then refreshed data connections
it will work.
Any idea why it is not working from PWA?
Thanks,

Please configure Secure Store Service in order to open report in WEB.
I think either you are using Report Viewer and report author Group that is why you are able to open report on excel or you are using account which you configured in in excel services. If you will try with any other user account to open excel report then
only accounts which are available in group can view the report.
If you need your users to open reports in Excel client, you must follow the Report Authors configuration.
Secure Store is only used by Excel Services it means if you want to open excel report on web(IE) then you must
configure Secure store services.
Secure store service doesn't
talk to the Excel 2010 client.
Report Viewers group configuration only supports use of reports on the web via Excel Services

Failing to Delete/Remove Project Server Service Application, giving error "Object reference not set to an instance of an object"

I have installed Project Server 2013 on SharePoint 2013, and installed the first PWA which worked. But I needed to change some configurations and so I deleted the PWA instances, but now I cannot delete the Project Server Service Application. Every attempt
to delete the Service Application it gives the error above, namely:
Sorry, something went wrong
Object reference not set to an instance of an object.

Error in Project Server 2013

Hi,
I set myself as team member in Project Server 2013, when i click on Project,Approvals and Timesheet i receive the below error:
"Cannot communicate with the server. Verify your connection and try again"
I have other account with Project Manager rights, with that account i can open these pages.
Please help.
K.Gokulraj

Hi Gokulraj,
What permission mode are you using in project server 2013? Is it "project permissions mode" or "SharePoint permissions mode"?
If you are using "project permissions mode", then go to Server Settings -> Manage users and click on the user with "team member" permissions to edit.
In the next page, expand "Global Permissions" and "View Approval" permission.
It could be the issue with the categories and category level permissions.
Happy troubleshooting...

Error using Line Classifications in Project Server 2013 Timesheets

Background:
I'm working on a Project Server 2013 environment that is using Timesheet Line Classifications. In our environment we are not utilizing the Standard Classification but, we are instead using Billable Onsite, Billable Offsite and Nonbillable.
Issue:
If I have created a timesheet, then I am assigned an additional task and try to add the task to my timesheet using a Line Classification other than standard, I get an error pop-up. As long as I add the Standard line classification first, everything
works fine. If I delete and recreate the timesheet it prepopulates the standard tasks which also resolves the issue.
Questions:
1.) Has anyone else ran across this issue and have a fix?
2.) Is anyone aware of a product fix in a CU or Hotfix to resolve this issue?
Thanks,
Dustin

Dustin - as I understand it Timesheet Line Classifications allow you to
"Duplicate" Timesheet lines for business purposes or accounting reasons. When I first saw this explanation I was at a loss as to the benefit or purpose of this feature, fortunately I work with some smart customers and they soon opened my eyes to the
potential of this feature.
The operative word in the description is "Duplicate". Additional Timesheet line classifications are available but
not in lieu of the Standard Line Classification. As you have experienced if the "Standard" line is added to a Timesheet then an associated Duplicate Line Classification for the same task can be
added to the Timesheet.
To realise your requirement you might just decide what type of work is it you do that is most prevalent and regard that as being "Standard" and then use other line classifications to identify other Billable time - Non Billable Time reporting in a Timesheet
is available by default if it is enabled in Timesheet Settings and Defaults.
As an alternative do your Timesheet compilers decide the classification of the work they are booking time to?
You could consider Task Custom Fields using a lookup table to denote whether work is on-site or off-site with the Calculation for Assignment Rows option set to "Rolldown unless manually specified" - this will associate the task field value with the associated
Assignment. Using Task level fields set by whoever creates the project plan would remove the responsibility for differentiating the work "type" for your Timesheet users.
The querying and reporting of the different classifications of work as recorded in Timesheets would then be possible by virtue of the task field.

Error while creating a Timesheet - Project Server 2013

Hi everyone,
One of user of PWA encounters an issue when he tries to create a timesheet. This error only occurs with a timesheet of
a specific period, he can create all the other timesheet.
So, when he creates the timesheet, this error occurs : "The timesheet creation failed, because of problems with Project Web App or with data validations"
After reloaded the list of the timesheets, a link to go to the specific timesheet
is available but if we click on it, we have this error :
"View Failue - The view failed to load"
I think , this error occurs
because the timesheet is not realy existing even if we have a link to it.
In the log (full log at the end), I've got this error :
Exception occured in method 'TimeSheet.CreateTimesheet' System.ArgumentException: These columns don't currently have unique values.
I've found this link with the same kind of problem :
http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/projectserver/en-US/b0a92afc-11fc-40ef-9a44-357d953b31f6/unable-to-open-or-create-timesheets-these-columns-dont-currently-have-unique-values?forum=projectserver2010general but I've checked and published all the
user project but still have the error.
Have you got any idea where are these columns ? How can I found them without checked every project of PWA ?
Thanks,
Patmol

Hi Patmol,
Have you tried to go to the previous or next timesheet and then navigate with the "previous period" or "next period" to the timesheet in question.
Also have you tried to open it using a delegation session?

Can new PWA views be created whereby a filter can be set and associate to the view by default? (Project Server 2013 ONLINE)

My main question is: Can new PWA views be created whereby a filter for that view can be set, and associate to the view by default? (Project Server 2013 ONLINE)? and can I have a filter set to filter on person logged on to...
In previous versions of Project Server, when CREATING a PWA view, we were able to apply/ define a filter for that view. Does not seem like it is the case in Project Server 2013 Online. And if I remember, we could also use the URL Guid_view_id.
Please confirm; and / or tell me how-to.
What I was hoping to do is the following... Given that our standard that we have adopted for reporting time is 'My Timesheets' (fyi, Single Mode Entry=ON), we have some resources who have others who do it on their behalf via 'My Tasks' (ie., accomplished
by using the 'Assignment Owner' field, accordingly). Therefore, when entering time on someone else's behalf within 'My Tasks', we like to present the user that is logged in only the tasks that they are are assigned to update on others' behlaf.
I know that there is another more elegant approach to doing this which may be to use the Delegation feature. But since we are trying to stick to Sharepoint Security mode for now, this is not an option for the time being.
Any help appreciated would be greatly appreciated.
\Spiro Theopoulos PMP, MCITP. Montreal, QC (Canada)

Hi Spiro,
1- You still can define in Project Online a filter in the view settings, it is located just above the category setting. Here is a screenshot of the summary project center view:
2- The view GUID is not anymore in the URL, since the URL triggers an action only on the webpart and not on the whole page. I agree this is annoying since it was great to send a URL with a specific view.
3- Concerning the access to my timesheet versus my task, I'm not sure to get a full understanding but on a general way, it is much more easy to deal with those situation using categories which you cannot do with the SP permission mode.
Hope this helps,

Error while installing MS Project Server 2013(trial) on Sharepoint 2013(CAL)

My problem is that I get the following error:
trial editions and licensed editions of SharePoint, Project Server, and Office Web Apps products may not be installed on the same server
when I try to install MS Project Server 2013(180 days-evaluation) over a Sharepoint 2013(MAPS license).
What does exactly this error say?
Do I need to have Sharepoint and MS Project Server with same type of license?
If so, I suppose I'll have to remove Sharepoint(MAPS) and install a 180 days-evaluation Sharepoint. Will this re-installation be acceptable or I'll get some license type incompatibility issues?

Hello. You are correct, you will need to have the same license types either both trials or both licensed. Uninstalling/ reinstalling with trials should work fine or build another trial farm. Paul

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
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/jj200305.aspx
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?
Cheers!

Saving Error in Project Server 2013, Need Help!

Hey All,
I am running into issues with a Projects saving from Project Pro 2013 to our Project Server 2013 Farm.
It is strange, when someone tries to save a project out of Project Pro 2013 to Project Server, it will run through the "Synchronizing Data to the Server", and then bombs out with error
Job Type: Save
Error ID:9000(0x2328)
The project could not be saved to the server, Etc..
My understanding is that this is a generic save error that could mean many things.
In the ULS logs under "Active Cache Save" , I am getting:
"Cancelling correlation 1339927b-e9e5-e311-941d-00155d2bc10d as save is an overwrite or resubmit"
What is strange at this point is if I check the project back in, and re-open/re-checkout the project, and try to save again, it is successful in saving.
Just a few details about the environment:
Project Server Version: 2013 RTM (In the process of upgrading)
SharePoint Version: 2013 RTM (In the process of upgrading)
Project Structure: One Master Project with all other projects being subprojects of the master
Published Status: All Published
SQL Version: SQL Server 2012 SP1
User Count: About 5 currently
Deployment: 1 WFE, 1 APP Server, 1 SQL Server
It is just odd, as it seems to be completely random. We have tried clearing caches out to see if that resolves it but it did not. It is just odd that it takes two saves for it to actually work correctly, and is problematic as the many times they are saving
from the master and it bombs out there.
I am not sure how it could be an issue as it is usually just a single user working on the individual subprojects.
Maybe it is an issue in the RTM? I couldn't find any info in any of the CU's or SP's that addresses this directly
Has anyone seen this, or have any suggestions?
MS Support has not been any help at all.
Thanks all

I have heard of issues with Master and Sub-Projects and both being published to Project Server, as a rule it is a feature I learnt to avoid as a result of bad experiences with earlier versions of Project Server.
Whilst this will not resolve the issue you have encountered the following suggestion may help you avoid pain in the future and leverages the potential of Project Server to represent common attributes for projects.
Typically a Master/Sub Project environment is intended to reflect projects that are commonly aligned - it is not unusual for a Master Project to represent a programme and for there to be multiple sub-projects forming the programme - there can be programme
level events that have multiple predecessors from multiple sub-projects.
Rather than create a master and sub-project situation I would suggest looking to define two Enterprise Custom Project fields to assist with such situations. The first being a Project Field called Programme that has a look up table with a list of current
programmes you can select from. The second Project Field would be a Programme Status Field with an associated lookup table with 3 values, Master, Sub-Project, Standalone.
You can have a project represent the Master (Programme) project and open it and all sub-projects in the programme (albeit this would have to be a one by one action to begin with). With all the projects open go and open a New Window in Project Professional
and elect to include all the open projects in the new window - this will create a new project with all the selected projects showing as
"embedded objects" and then create dependencies from sub-projects to programme level events in the Master Project (I would suggest what I call
"one way traffic" when creating "cross project dependencies" to avoid further headaches). Close the project, you will be prompted to save changes which you should do but do not save the new window
"container" project. The dependencies across the projects will persist - in each project you will be able to see external successors - tasks in the master project. In the master project you will be able to see external predecessors.
In PWA you can create Project Centre Programme views that filter to exclude projects that ARE Standalone and group them by Programme and sort by Programme Status Field - this will ensure that the "Master" sits at the top of the pile for each programme grouping.
Just a suggestion - I hope the issue you have encountered is resolved soon.
