Im getting "Service Unavailable" error when I try to access Project web
access on our development box after applying Project Server SP2.

I deployed it in correct order (db,project,wss patch in SP2)

In event log Im getting this error in Application Log:

I've tried this KB article but got the same result.

Refreshing the policies (changed in KB article mention at the end of previous
post) resolved it.

Faisal:

Are you able to start the pool manually? What identity are you using?

 

[FaisalM]

During the problem the Projet pool stopped. So I manually started it. But it
was getting stopped again & again. So I rebooted the server after following
that KB article.

I'm using Network Service in identity.

Now its working.

Just one word on this MS Project Error?

I hear a lot many on MS Project from people here in this open source lovers
shop.

Did you reboot after deploying SP2 initially? I wonder if the cure was more
the reboot or the KB fix. Thinking out loud...

 

[FaisalM]

Yes I rebooted the server twice after SP2.
