Project pro 2007 will not communicate with proj server 2007

I get project server installed and I can edit projects in the web portal but
I cannot get project professional to publish its projects to the server. What
am I doing wrong?

In step number 5 is the project server url simply http://server1/pwa ?That is
how we get to the project web access, is it the same for the "project server
url". I think this problem is very simple I just cannot put my finger on it
:) Also I did add an account "support" project server at http://server1/pwa,
radio button for use windows account, check box for set as default, click OK
(Note there is no test button, i wish i could past in the screen capture!)
The after that windows closes (it warns me about not using https to connect
to PJ server) on the "Project Server Accounts" window i select radio button
for manually control connection state and hit ok

From the link you gave me:
Resolution

To create a Project Server login account, complete the following steps

1. Launch Microsoft Project Professional
2. Click Tools - Enterprise Options - Microsoft Office Project
Server Accounts
3. Click the Add button
4. Enter an Account Name for the login account, such as "Production
Project Server"
5. Enter the URL for Your Project Server instance
6. Click the Test Connection button to verify a valid Project
Server connection
7. Select the "Set as default account" option and click OK
8. Select the "Manually control connection state" option and click OK
9. Close Microsoft Project Professional and then relaunch the
software
10. Click the Connect button

jirwin --

Yes, use the URL that you use to access PWA. In the Account Properties
dialog, did you select the "Use Windows user account" option? Also, you
logged onto the network using the Windows user account you specified during
the installation of Project Server 2007, right? If you did all these steps,
what happens when you launch Project Professional 2007 and click the OK
button in the Login dialog? Let us know and we will try to help.
