Can't publish a project....but no error in spooler

I have a project that has been working just fine. Beginning last week, when
I attempt to publish (either all information, new and changed assignments or
republish assignments) the window does not pop showing me changed
assignments. Nothing happens in the spooler. Changes are NOT published.
There are no errors in the spooler.

All of our other projects work just fine.

Any ideas on what might be happening here......

I'm suspicious that the project may have become corrupted. If this is the
case, you would need to open the project and then save it as an XML file.
This has been shown to resolve some project corruption issues. After doing
so, your Project Server administrator would need to delete the project from
the Project Server database, and then you would need to import the project
back into the database using Tools - Enterprise Options - Import Project to
Enterprise. If you already have Risks, Issues, or Documents associated with
this project, refer to the following link for the directions on how to
preserve the SharePoint subweb for your project and how to connect the
subweb to the project after you reimport it:

I need to stress that I am only "shooting in the dark" on your publishing
issue. If anyone else has any ideas about the source of and solution to
your problem, I will glady invite them to respond. Hope this helps.

That worked....I'm still stumped as to what may have caused the corruption
but so far, it hasn't happened again.

Thanks for your help....

Take a look at our projectserverexperts.com site and follow the instructions
in the FAQs How To Rebuild the binary blob. After converting to XML, your
project file will appear to be about 18 months into a pregnancy. The binary
rebuild will shrink the bloat.
