Hi there,

I trie to change some master page in http://server/pwa site, i can access
the site at http://server but not http://server/pwa. it says the web site
disallow the editting from SharePoint Designer, how can I change this? I
tried to change this from Designer's controbutor settings, not working, and I
think we created the pwa from SSP so should I start from there? thanks in
advance.

Alan,

As far as i am aware you wont be able to do this type of editing to a pwa
site, but if you thnk about it it actually makes sense that this cannot be
done, as Microsoft has coded functionality onto those pages and making
changes to it could cause Project Server to stop functioning like it should.

Hi Alan,

as Andre quite rightly pointed out Project Web Access cannot be changed in
SharePoint Designer. It will probably never be supported in sharePoint
designer. If you want to do amendments you will need to do so using visual
studio / general custom development.
Hope this helps

Dear Mr Andre

Thank you.

I am facing a problem of not accesing the Pwa site from my client browser machine. But the Application Site is working ok on the Web Server machine where it is hosted.

I have changed the Sharepoint port 80 to port 8888.This was primarily done since my other site was aslo using port 80. Now my both the sites are working ok on web server machine.

For example the web server computer name is win2008
then http://win2008:8888/pwa works ok on the web server machine but when trying through my client browser i get "page not found".

Note : Web Server Os : Windows Server 2008
Client Browser Machine : Windows Vista

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks & Regards,
Prashant S Akerkar


What could be the reasons ? How i can make it work ?
