Can't publish project to project server (0x80004005 errors)

O

There is a lot of information around on this issue, but I couldn't find
anything that fits my scenario:

We have been suffering for some time from different 0x80004005 errors when
publishing projects and assignments to project server.

I managed to reduce the failing situation to a very simple experiment -
create a new project and publish it. The spooler immediately indicates SYSTEM
ERRORS with the 0x80004005 code. After 3-5 retries, however, the operation
finally succeeds.
Most of the solutions in the threads I've seen do not seem relevant for our
situation in which after several retries the publishing does work (i.e. the
DropView permission problem, Email server configuration problems).

BTW, the Application Log on the Project Server shows nothing (it did show
different errors for some of the other incidents we had but not for the
simple experiment of publishing a new project).

We have Project Server 2003 SP1 (with post-SP patch 838882) running on W2K3
with SP1. The clients are Project Professional 2003 SP1.

Any help would be very much appreciated as this makes the Project Server
look very unstable.
