Spooler error and Project workspace not created

E

eoint

Hi, a number of people have had this issue and I've tried a number of
suggestions to overcome it, to no avail..

Basically I have Project Server SP1 and Project Professional SP1. When I
save or publish a project in Project Pro I recieve a spooler error
(0x80004005). If I open the Spooler window and click retry the operation
completes. The error is caused by the fact that the Project workspace
creation failed, I know this because I can manually create the workspace
later from Admin-->Manage Windows SharePoint Services -->Manage SharePoint
sites-->Create site and also if I uncheck the box to Automatically create a
team Web site for the project when a project is published to Project Server,
saving and publishing works fine. There are three errors logged in the event
log:

Notes:
1. There is a site owner and seconedary site owner both with valid e-mail
addresses
2. None of the projects involved have ampersands in their name
3. I can connect to SharePoint through the SharePoint Administration page in
Project Web Access.
4. The version of mdac on both server and client pc is 2.8 (not sure if this
is relevant)

I would appreciate any input that anyone can give...i'm almost at my wit's
end :)

Hi, I have fixed this problem, just posting it in case anyone else encounters
it.

Basically the Project server in question had a human friendly name
(Projectserver) set up as a DNS CNAME alias record on the internal network
for human friendly access to the MS Project Server application on the server
xyz. When setting up the connection from Project server I used this friendly
name i.e. http://projectserver/currentprojects. The sharepoint server
couldn't find that address so by replacing it with the original server name
i.e http://xyz/currentprojects via Tools-->Enterprise options-->Project
Server Accounts the issue was resolved thus projects could be saved and
published and the project workspace was created.

Regards,

E
