Installation problem

[Kam]

I am installing the Project Server 2003 on Window 2003 with sharepoint 2003
on an single machines.

during the post-installation task, I log on to the
http://server/projectserver, then come up with a message.

Microsoft JScript runtime error '800a138f'

'null' is null or not an object

/ProjectServer/Shell/Shell.asp, line 529

how can I fix it and continue the rest of the configuration?

Hi Kam,

I would assume that you are talking about Windows Sharepoint Services, not
Sharepoint Portal Server.

Microsoft actually has very suffisticated step by step instructions on how
to install Project Server ( on a single or multitier machine). I could
imagine that this following link be of interest. It will lead you to the
documentation. The best idea is to go through the docu and check that you
have all the configuration settings required.This may help you solve your
problem

(check out the "how to plan, deploy and build with project server. Click the
link Microsoft Office Project Server 2003 Resource Kit)

I hope this helps

I am using Sharepoint Portal Server 2003. Is there any different in procedure
during the installation?

KAM:

Are you installing a service pack at the same time you're installing Project
Server? The error is typical when the software bits don't match the database
structure as happens when a service pack is applied incorrectly. See the
following FAQ:

See the following:

I don't recommend putting Portal Server on the same machine, but it does
require additional steps.

I can't find the ProjectServer2003-KB887621-SQLFile-ENU.exe at microsoft web
site, where can I find it?

 

[Kam]

Can you tell me the right sequence to install Project Server?

I installed the Sharepoint portal, Project server 2003, sp1, sp2, then run
Upgdb112.cmd with error.

while running upgpj111.sql,
[dbnetlib] sql server does not exist or access denied
[dbnetlib] connectionopen (connect())

I am using sa to run the script.
"upgdb112.cmd local projectserver sa xxxxxxx"

 

[Kam]

How long it take to run upgdb112.cmd for a fresh installation?

 

[Kam]

thank you for your help.
After a couple of install and uninstall, the project server is up and
running finally.

thanks alot

Hello Kam,
This is a tipical problem after you use de Service Pack 2.
To resolve this problem, you have to process the scripts(SQL) in the
database of the Project Server.
Thats all folk´s.
