SP2a

[Tom_s]

I am in the process of upgrading for 2002 to 2003 sp2a. I first upgraded my
SQL2000 database, to 2003, then I upgraded PS to 2003. No connection issues
from PWA. I then upgraded my SQL db to 2003 SP1, then upgraded PS to 2003
SP1, no connection issues, all is fine. I then upgraded my SQL db to 2003 SP2
and all is fine. I then upgraded my PS to 2003 SP2a and it all fell apart.
When logging into PWA I get the log on screen, enter my log on info and get
this error..Site editor says everything is fine.

'null' is null or not an object
/ProjectServer/Shell/Shell.asp, line 529

Browser Type:

Can someone please tell me why this keeps crashing at this stage?
Thanks

Refer to the following FAQ regarding the "null is null" error:

Hope this helps.

I can try to run it again, but its pretty hard to screw it up from the cmd
line. This is the 3rd time I have been down this road and it keeps crashing
PWA after the SP2a patch. If it doesn't work this time, I am going to
uninstall and reinstall again and stop at SP1 this time.

Thanks for the help.

OK. I reran the SP2a db upgrade and that did not help. So I uninstalled MS
Project Server 2003, blowing away both the patches. I left the SQL DB upgrade
in place. I reinstalled only MSP 2003 Server and it worked perfectly. I then
went directly to the MSP 2003 server SP2A upgrade and installed that. Now I
am broke again. I cannot connect through PWA or my client. The client error
message is saying "HTTP 401.2 - Unauthorized: Logon failed due to server
configuration Internet Information Services" which indicates to me that IIS
is no longer config correctly. I have LGNBSC set to basic, LGNPSAU, MSADC and
ISAPI set to Anonymous and Integrated. This has to be a problem with IIS, but
I can't find it.

Anyone have anyother ideas?

Thanks

I didn't see any mention of the WSS portion of the SP2a upgrade in your
posts. This is the final portion of the patch if I remember correctly.
I'm not sure if that would have anything to do with it.

Thanks, but we do not use WSS so I chose to configure later.
