Project 2003/ PS 2003
I have plan that won't allow publishing of new & changed assignments or
republishing assignments anymore.
History:
A couple of weeks ago the plan owner stated he made some additional
assignments and did publish the plan but the resources couldn't see the tasks
on their task page. He was on vacation and couldn't get to MSP so I opened
the plan and published the new and changed assignments (there were 4) and
just thought he'd forgotten to do that. When he came back, I prompted him to
republish the assignments so that I wouldn't have to process the udpates. He
said he couldn't. When he went to Republish Assignments, he got the prompt
that the project plan would be saved and then nothing. The next prompt where
you can choose what to republish and whether to notify resources of the
changes and become the manager of the assignments never came up.
So then I tried. Now I can't republish the assignments. I then tried adding
myself to the plan and assigning myself to a task and the same thing happens
with Publish New & Changed Assignments (prompts that the plan will be saved
and then nothing else). The assignment does not get published. It does say
that it's saving the plan at the bottom of the MSP screen but the tasks still
have icons in the indicator column that say, "Information for this task has
changed. Select Publish New & Changed Assignments to update the resources."
Every time one of the publish otpions is chosen an XML file does appear in
the views processor folder so I know something is happening, just not a
republish or publish new/change assignments!
I tried to 'force a rebuild the binary file' (twice) as outlined on
projectserverexperts.com but this did not resolve the issue either.
Any other thoughts?
