Try it again,

I just installed project server 2002 and can't seem to be able to login to the server via the web using the admin no password account.

I get,

Microsoft Project Server was unable to log you on at this time. Please try again later. (5006)


The application log gives me some crazy script error,

thanks

During install, one of the last steps was to specify an admin password. If
you forgot the admin password, you can go into the database and delete the
entry.

1. Open the SQL Enterprise Manager and expand the tree to the ProjectServer
database and click on Tables.
2. Go to the MSP_WEB_RESOURCES table and return all rows by right-clicking
and selecting Open Table --> Return All Rows.
3. Identify the row with Administrator in the RES_NAME field. For a new
install, this should be the first and only row.
4. Go over and find the WRES_PASSWORD field.
5. Delete all text from the WRES_PASSWORD field for the Administrator user.
6. Click on another field to put the change into the database.

Now, you should be able to login to Project Web Access with a blank
password. You should probably set a new password at this time.

NOTE: This only works for Project Server authenticated users. Windows
Authenticated users use the Windows Username and Password.
