Change Owner in Lightweight Projects

D

I need to change the owner of a Lightweight Project. It seems no one
is calling it a Lightweight Project, so it is also known as the
Activities and Proposals list.

It will allow me to change the owner to another administrator, but
won't let me change the owner to another project manager. I'm signed
in with Administrator rights.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

A bug in Project Server 2007 prevents the Owner pick list from showing the
list of members of the Project Managers group. Ask your Project Server
administrator to do the following to set up the workaround for this bug:

1. Log into PWA with administrator permissions.
2. Click the Server Settings link in the Quick Launch menu.
3. Click the Manage Groups link in the Security section of the page.
4. Click the Project Managers group to edit the Group.
5. In the Categories section, select the My Organization category.
6. In the Permissions grid for the Categories section, set the "Save
Project to Project Server" permission to Allow:
7. Click the Save button.

After your Project Server administrator completes the above steps, you will
be able to change the Owner of the lightweight project to any member of the
Project Managers group.
