Sharepoint Services and Project Server 2003

Hi,

I installed Microsoft Project Server 2003 and Sharepoint Services 2.0 on Windows 2003 following the installation guide. However when I tried to connect to the Sharepoint Services from Project Web Access it failed and when I try to update or modify the admin URL it gave me this error:

"The specified Windows account must be a valid user on the specified Sharepoint server computer. Furthermore, the indows account must be in the SharePoint Central Administrators group. To add the Windows account to the Sharepoint Central Administrators group, navigate to the Sharepoint Central Administratiton page and add the account in the Sharepoint Administrator group"

I've checked the account I've been using, following the validation suggestions on screen and it works perfectly fine. Anyone can help with this??

Thanks.

Try running the PSComm+ utility on the server that PWA is installed on. It
will provide you the opportunity to establish the correct links to the SQL
analysis services and the SharePoint server. If you have permission to run
this on the server or can have your server admin do it, you should be rid of
the error.
I don't remember the exact location of the file on the server, a windows
explorer search should find it.

Thanks! I have run the PSComm+ utility but it still does not work. I'm running everything (Sharepoint Services, Project Server 2003 and SQL Server 2000) in a single machine. Should that be a problem?
