WSS and Project Server 2007: best practice

[Vit]

Hi All,

I'm deploying a WSS 3.0 / Project Server 2007 inplementation/
installation...

I know how to install and deply Project Server by itself and I know
how to install / deply WSS 3.0 as an internal web portal.

Does someone know how to setup an internal webportal integrated with
Project Server???

here you are my suggestion (but I don't know if it works......)

1) install wss 3.0
2) create a web application (port 80) for the internal webportal
3) create a site collection under the web application (to define the
home page for the internal webportal)
4) create a web application for the ssp
5) create the SSP under the ssp web application
6) activate the project server service
7) under the ssp create the pwa site (using the port 80 web
application)

after created Web applications, the ssp and the pws site, in the
homepage of the internal web portal (home port 80), I have to ass a
subsite and refer to the pwa site...

in this way I can have in the same webpage the home of the internal
webportal and the link to the PWA...

does this make sens??? will this work???

any issue to have the same web application for the internal webportal
and for the pwa???

just to make an example:

home of the portal: http://testserver:80/
home of the PWA: http://testserver:80/pwa

thanks all

cheers

Hi there again! This seem to be fine but , why not just add a link in
either page that point to the other ? Also just remember to start WSS
search. If you run it on the Default Web Site then specifying a Port
nr :80 will not be needed, so it will be http://testserver and
http://testserver/pwa

Hi Andre, thanks for the answer... I'd like to have in the "home page"
of the internal portal the link to the pwa....

I have done some tests and the result seems not to be as expected....

in the same port (the 80) I have created the home page http://testserver
and the PWA http://testserver/pwa...

when I try to insert a link (site setting -> top link bar) I can easy
navigate from the home page to the PWA page,but I loos the "header and
the new header is the one of the PWA)...

is it possibel to create a generic Site Collection and Create the PWA
as a subsite????

in fact creating a internal portal home page as site collection and
creating pwa as another site collection, I cannot link then in a
'logical way"....

In site setting I have found the option: "portal site connection"...
this is what I need, but instead to have this "navigation bar" in the
top, I'd like to have it in "top link bar"....

I don't know if it is possible....

thanks

Vit ,

As far as my knowledge goes i do not thing you can provision PWA as a
subsite of anoher site. Have you tried creating a new site and then
"replicate" PWA by using Web Parts ? Other than that i have no idea.
