"View Resource assignment" Problem

D

Hi All,
And Help!!

The resource center has a option to "view resource assignments". I tried
this option recently and all I ever get is a error on page. The error
message says it has 'timed-out'. We have approx 100 projects with an
average of 250 assignments per project. Would it normally 'timeout' because
there is to much data?

To test the voracity of the error, you can ajust your query timeout setting
and see if that corrects the issue. In all likelihood, it will. To do this
you have two options:

1) Download the Site Editor from http://download.microsoft.com search on
"Site Editor" You can change the timeout there.

2) With this being your only issue, you can spare yourself the download by
editing this value directly in the registry at:

HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Office\10.0\MS Project\WebClient
Server\Application\Query Timeout.

Try doubling the setting from 1200 to 2400. Experiment a little with the
value to see if it has any affect. You may also want to look at the traffic
hitting the NIC card on your SQL box. This is the typical root-cause
bottleneck. Adding a nic card or making sure that nic teaming is on and set
to full duplex can not only eliminate the timeouts, but also speed up
performance.
