Project Server Web Access

[JCH]

I have installed Project Server 2003 in a test environment and have a
problem, some users can log in with no problems, other users cannot get past
the Web Components Licence screen, as soon as check the agreement box and
click next it just comes back to the licence.

I have add the server to the Trusted Sites for explorer and set security on
these sites to Low.

Hi JCH,

Is it possible that you upgraded your Project Server Service Pack from 1 to
2a?

 

[JCH]

Yes, I upgraded to SP2a

Hi JCH,

I had exactly that problem yesterday. Needed someone w/ Admin privileges
to hit the site, accept the license, and download the ActiveX controls (or
whatever they were). After we did that, all worked fine.

The user has admin privileges to the local machine.

Okay, here is a list of things to try:

(a) Remove the ActiveX controls (IE, then Tools, then Internet Options, then
Settings, then View Objects, then remove the ActiveX controls). Flush your
cache. Make cache size 20M. No need to go higher... Close all open IE.
Open IE. Try to log on.

(b) ActiveX has not been allowed to execute... Go to Tools, Internet
Options, Security tab, Custom Level, and enable all ActiveX; set to promt for
other controls... Close IE, Open IE, Try again.

(c) Add PWA site to trusted sites

(d) Get rid of all popup blockers and Google toolbar, Yahoo toolbar, etc.

(e) It can be an MDAC proble. go to microsoft.com and get the newest MDAC
for your 'puter.

(f) Turn off Firewall, see if it works, if it does, try to tune your
firewall to accept AxctiveX (or other thngs which may be blocked), trial and
error...

If all of that doesn't work, maybe the use profile on the PC is corrupt.
Have the user try logging onto another PC (log out the current user, of
course). If it works on the second PC, then the first PC is suspect... Wipe
out the user profile and try again.

That should work... If not, please repost.

Hi JCH,

this always happens when you upgrade from 1 to Service Pack 2a. In summary,
you will need to unregister the PWA Active X control files ( here is a
batchfile that does it for Win 2000, I am sure you will find it easy to apply
this to XP as well)

REM Registering the ActiveX Control files
regsvr32 "C:\WINNT\Downloaded Program Files\PJ11ENUC.dll" /U /s
regsvr32 "C:\WINNT\Downloaded Program Files\pjres11c.dll" /U /s
regsvr32 "C:\WINNT\Downloaded Program Files\pjtextconv11.dll" /U /s
regsvr32 "C:\WINNT\Downloaded Program Files\pjcalendar11.ocx" /U /s
regsvr32 "C:\WINNT\Downloaded Program Files\pjgrid11.ocx" /U /s
regsvr32 "C:\WINNT\Downloaded Program Files\pjoutlook11.ocx" /U /s
regsvr32 "C:\WINNT\Downloaded Program Files\pjprint11.dll" /U /s
regsvr32 "C:\WINNT\Downloaded Program Files\pjquery11.ocx" /U /s
regsvr32 "C:\WINNT\Downloaded Program Files\pjupdate11.ocx" /U /s
regsvr32 "C:\WINNT\Downloaded Program Files\pjoffline11.ocx" /U /s

echo "Controls Unregistered"

Once you have unregistered these files you will need to install and
re-register the new SP2 Active X files. Here is a batchfile again. Plaease
make sure that you have the following new SP2 Active x files in the same
folder then this batch file.
PJ11ENUC.dll
pjres11c.dll
pjtextconv11.dll
pjcalendar11.ocx
pjgrid11.ocx
pjoutlook11.ocx
pjprint11.dll
pjquery11.ocx
pjupdate11.ocx
pjoffline11.ocx
