Project 2003/Sharepoint/Project Server on Server 2003

[Ron Bryant]

I have a problem in that I have Project Server 2003 and
Project Professional 2003 both installed on the same
Server 2003. I get this error when trying to connect all
within the same machine.

"Cannot Connect.
Project was unable to establish a connection with the
selected project server. This could be caused by the loss
of network connectivity, invalid user name or password,
lack of an enterprise global template, or problems with
the project server or database, or your project server
may not have enterprise features enabled."


I have project professional 2003 installed on my laptop
(XP) and I can connect just fine. I can log in in PWA
from the Server 2003 fine also. I have used the CliConfig
as suggested and that didn't do anything for me. The
Project Server Web address has been set as a trusted site
as well.

Ron:

I don't have an exact answer for you, but try this as it takes only a second
and might help. On the server, navigate to \windows\system 32\drivers\etc\
and open your Hosts file. Add an entry:


127.0.0.1 <servername>

Put your server's netbios name instead of <servername>

Let us know if this helps.
