We are using Project prof. 2003 and server 2003.
Some weeks ago Jason Alsip posted the message you can read
at the bottom of this one. We are having exactly the same
problem.
Does anyone know how to solve this?
If Jason is over there, Did you solve this problem at the
end?
Thanks
Jose
"Here is the situation I have. In short, we are trying to
create a custom project guide that has content specific to
our project management process and centrally host it in
IIS. When we reference the guide in a prototype mpp that
we created a while ago, it works fine. In any existing
project plans that we have, either mpp's or plans that are
on the server, we get this error:
---------------------------------
Microsoft Project cannot access the Microsoft Project
Server
http://<servername>/ProjectServer/.
Please check the Server URL in the Collaborate tab of the
Options dialog box (Tools menu). Make sure the server is
functioning correctly, and is a valid Microsoft Project
2002 Server. Note that you cannot display pages from a
Microsoft Project 2000 server inside Microsoft Project
2002.
---------------------------------
The Server URL is fine, the server we are referencing is a
trusted site, and we have successfully tested the URL to
the project guide in IE and it comes up fine there. And
according to what I've read in the Microsoft
documentation, the only requirement is that the files
reside either locally or on a trusted site - which we have
met those criteria. What is even more interesting is that
the buttons for the project guide come up fine, so I think
the failpoint is when it attempts to load the html page.
So, are there any ideas why this would work on one project
plan and nowhere else? I would also like to point out
that we have a large Project deployment, so manual
deployment to client desktops is something we would rather
not do and from what I'm seeing as far as how the
architecture is supposed to work, this should not be
necessary.
