Problem with Task/Issue links after Upgrade PS 2003 -> PS 2007

[Russ]

Hi there,

I did a 'full migration on the same computer' from Project Server 2003/WSS
2.0 to Project Server 2007/WSS 3.0. I have found that when I navigate to 'my
tasks' and click the 'issue link' icon, I am unable to view the linked issue.
The error log shows:

System.Web.Services.Protocols.SoapException:
System.Web.Services.Protocols.SoapException: ProjectServerError(s)
LastError=GeneralSecurityAccessDenied Instructions: Pass this into
PSClientError constructor to access all error information at
Microsoft.Office.Project.Server.WebService.View.ReadView(Guid view_uid)
at
System.Web.Services.Protocols.SoapHttpClientProtocol.ReadResponse(SoapClientMessage
message, WebResponse response, Stream responseStream, Boolean asyncCall)
at System.Web.Services.Protocols.SoapHttpClientProtocol.Invoke(String
methodName, Object[] parameters) at
Microsoft.Office.Project.Server.WebServiceProxy.PSIProxyBase.InvokePSI(String
serviceName, String methodName, Object[] parameters)

This is only a problem for projects which were migrated from Project Server
2003. The link seems to be uni-directional - If I open the issue from the
project workspace, I can go from there to the linked task. Although it looks
like a security error, I believe it is a null reference exception. The
following message is written in the log when I click directly on the task.

Exception Exception occurred in method PWA.StatusingReadWssLinksForTask

Any ideas?

I ran the migration/upgrade again -This time it worked. I have no idea why....
....somewhat disturbing. I wonder what will happen when I try this in
our real production environment.
