Step 1: I created a new SharePoint Web Application with administrator user name
Step 2: I created a new SSP with that web application
Step 3: In this new ssp, I clicked Project Web Access sites
Step 4: Clicked Create Project Werb Access Site
Step 5: On the same sharepoint web application, gave Primary database and
Reporting databse information and clicked OK
Step 6: Got to a web page where it was trying to create the PWA but got an
error "Failed - See the Event Log"
Step 7: When i click on the above thing i see only two options " Delete" and
"Retry".
Step 8: "Delete" deletes the PWA with no issue.

This is where i am not able to proceed further and not able to see any event
logs for this.

I found my mistake. I was not giving my SQL Server name in primary database
but after doing so I am getting permission issue. It uses Network Services to
create/configure Shared Services database instead of administrator user. I
use administrator to create the site and configure SSP but I don't why it is
still using Netwrok Services. Am i missing something here?

Thx
Siva
