What steps did you perform to disable the viewing of the View my tasks page?
That page displays by default for everyone unless its permission is denied.
Let us know.

Didn't your third party vendor leave any documentation about the changes
they made to your system? If not, they definitely need to supply you with
this information, as I suspect you will have many more problems with Project
Server as a result. Since I have absolutely no idea what they have done
with your system, here's a stab at solving the problem:

1. Log into PWA with administrator permissions
2. Click Admin - Project Server configuration
3. In the Tasks section of the Features grid, make sure the "View
timesheet" permission is set to Allow
4. Click the Save Changes button

Let us know if this helps.

If you did the documentation for your Project Server implementation, then
what other changes did you make to the default settings in Project Server?
I don't understand why you turned off so many features, but I would now
suggest that you go back to your documentation and turn on all of the
default settings in Project Server. I can't even begin to guess the changes
you may have made, so it's going to be up to you to put it back into its
default configuration. If you can't figure this out on your own, then
perhaps your third party vendor will need to assist you again.

To answer your questions, the Home page in PWA should show you the number of
new tasks assigned in the Tasks section. Once you have viewed the new tasks
in the View my tasks page, Project Server removes the "new tasks" message on
the Home page until the next set of new tasks are published in a project.

If you assigned yourself to a task, where did you do this? In the actual
Microsoft Project plan or in the View my tasks page in PWA? If you created
a project in Microsoft Project, have you actually published the project
using Collaborate - Publish - All Information? You must do this before
tasks will show up in PWA. Saving a project is NOT the same as publishing a
project. Let us know.
