Cannot logon to Project Server 2003 after first time installation

[jstocker]

Hello,
I just finished installing Project Server 2003, and I cannot logon to
it. When browsing to the virtual directory for /projectserver it asks
me for a logon and password. I have tried the administrator account
that was used when Project Server was installed but it gives this error
message:
You have entered an incorrect user name/password combination. (5002)
I know I am entering in the right password. The virtual directory is
pointing to this path:
D:\Microsoft Office Project Server 2003\IIS Virtual Root\
The directory permissions on this directory are:
Administrators (Full Control)
System (Full Control)
Creator/Owner (Special)
Users (Special)
Read/List, Create Files / Write Data, Create Folders/ Append Data

Do I need to add any others? The IIS Manager security settings are:
Enable Anonymous Access *unchecked*
Integrated Windows Authentication *checked*

The server is running Windows 2003 Standard with SP1

The user name is "Administrator" (without the quotes) and the password is
the one you supplied during the installation of Project Server. If you
cannot remember the password you selected, refer to the following link:

After you successfully log into PWA using the built-in Administrator
account, refer to the following link for the instructions to set up an
Administrator account login in Microsoft Project Professional:

Hope this helps.

I had this happen as well. You have to go to the admin link to use the admin
login; it won't work on the main login.

Thanks! I was using the password for the Administrator in Active Directory,
but I tried the one I was prompted for during installation and that worked.
Kind of odd that it didn't simply used AD authentication in my opinion, but
that is fine, at least it is working now.
