Project Server2003 and SharePoint Portal Server 2003

Can SPS2003 and Project Server 2003 run on the same server?

Can SPS2003 be installed now and Project Server 2003 be installed on the
same server at a later date?

Thanks for any info,
Ed Lee

Project2003 WSS and SPS2003 can be installed on the same server. The install is a little bit tricky. Here are the main steps:

1/ installl SPS 2003 (make sure that frontpage extensions are not installed
2/ run WSSWIZ.exe
3/ do not extend the default virtual site in WSS, instead create a portal site in the Default site
4/ create a WSS site
5/Install projectserver2003 (if you install services make sure you do that install first)
6/Check that the application identity for project server is not using the Portal identity (it causes the grid not to function properly), but uses a Network type identity.

We have rolled out a distributed installation of Project2003 with:

Project2003/WSS/and SPS 2003 on the Fronnt end-server (in DMZ) SSL enabled and fully qualified domain

Project2003 services on Application server(LAN)

SQL2000 and OLAOP 2000 on a third server.(LAN)

Hope this helps

Thanks. This is very helpful. A few more follow-up questions...

Are there any issues with Project 2003 and SQL 2000 on the same server?

Is WSSWIZ.exe part of SPS 2003 or Project Server 2003?

Is there a trial version of Project Server 2003 avaialable? I found the
option to order a trial of Project 2003 Standard, but not Server.

Somewhere (I can't recall where), I saw pricing info for Project
Professional 2003, Project Server 2003 CALs, and Project Web Access CALs.
The MS website at
http://www.microsoft.com/Office/project/prodinfo/EPM/components.mspx makes
no mention of Project Web Access as compoent of the Enterprise Project
Management Solution. Is Project Web Access a seperate product? On the one
hand, it seems to me like Project Web Access may be an integrated part of
Project Server. However, I'm almost sure I saw pricing that listed Project
Web Access seperately at one point.

Maybe I should have started by asking whether there is a Project Server 2003
FAQ available?

Thanks for your help,
Ed Lee

Ed:

I haven't done this myself, but Microsoft states that they're compatible.
They weren't with the 2002 editions.

Yes, they can. I'm running them right now on this machine without trouble -
I can't say anything as to how many users/sites this config will handle, as
this is a development machine with _very_ modest load :)
