Queuing process blocked on one server

[Xiao]

Hi,
I have two Project Server 2007 on 2 different servers for tests. On one of
them, the queuing process hangs after any reboot of the machine. I have to
stop and then to restart the Queuing service every time. After that
everything works fine, but I would like to know why the queuing process is
stopping on this machine.
Any idea?
Thanks

Do you get an error message on reboot? Not sure if relevant to this specific
issue, but some of the services sometimes have to start up in the right order.
If they don't get started in the right order, then you get an error message,
and some things don't work right. If that is the case, you need to go into
the system and define the dependencies.

I forget the exact details but MSProjectExperts documented it in their Orange
book for 2007. I am sure someone else on the newsgroup could fill in the
specifics.

Refer to the following FAQ:

Hope this helps.

Are you by chance running SQL Server on the same machine? If so, see this:

Thanks everybody,

I'm not lucky because this FAQ don't apply to my issue : My SQL Server 2005
is on a separate server.
Can you tell me if I could try to use it anyway : change the Registry on the
server running Project Server ?
Thanks again.

What is your patch level?

Gary,

I have SP2 + December CU

What is your patch level?

Xiao:

The registry hack only applies to the specific issue and would do bad things
if you don't have SQL Server running as you'd be telling the service never
to start. Do you see anything in the Server Application Event log or the ULS
logs after rebooting when the failure occurs? Since the usual suspects seem
to be ruled out, we'll need some diagnostic data to help you further.
