Overview of Project Server 2003
Microsoft® Office Project Server 2003 is designed to support collaboration between
project managers who are using Microsoft Office Project Professional 2003 and te
am
members who are using Microsoft Office Project Web Access 2003. The Microsoft Of
fice
Enterprise Project Management (EPM) Solution is an integrated system that includ
es
Project Professional 2003, Project Web Access 2003, and Project Server 2003.
Project Server 2003 provides timesheets, status reports, portfolio analysis and
modeling,
enterprise resources, and enterprise templates. When integrated with Microsoft W
indows®
SharePoint® Services, Project Server 2003 provides document management and issues
and
risk tracking features.
Users access Project Server 2003 by means of Project Web Access, a browser-based
client
that enables team members, resource managers, and executives to enter and view t
imesheet
information and view portfolio reports. Project managers can create projects or
create or
modify the Enterprise Resource Pool by using Project Professional and save that
data to
the Project Server database.
Project Server 2003 is flexible and is designed to enable you to extend your EPM
Solution.
You can begin by using a limited number of enterprise features and then add addi
tional
features as needed.
Project Server 2003 Components
Project Server 2003 consists of the following software components:
Project Server Front-End service Handles all Project Web Access and Project Data
Service requests.
View Processing Generates static views of published data for Project Web Access.
Session Manager Handles the session-state information for each client that is
connecting to Project Server 2003 from Project Web Access.
Project Server 2003 requires the services and support of the following Microsoft
applications:
Internet Information Services (IIS) 5.0 or later Provides the foundation for sec
ure
and scalable Web-based solutions. IIS is included as part of the Microsoft
Windows 2000 Server and Microsoft Windows Server 2003 operating systems.
Microsoft SQL Server 2000 Provides database management for users who want
to take advantage of all enterprise functionality that is built in to Project Se
rver 2003 in
a scalable environment. Both SQL Server 2000 Standard Edition and SQL Server 200
0
Enterprise Edition support the enterprise functionality of Project Server 2003,
but only
SQL Server 2000 Enterprise Edition supports advanced deployment features such as
failover or HTTP Internet support. You must install SQL Server 2000 before you c
an
install Project Server 2003 or configure Windows SharePoint Services for Project
Server 2003.
SQL Server 2000 Analysis Services Provides online analytical processing (OLAP)
services, which are required for the Portfolio Analyzer feature of Project Serve
r 2003.
The Portfolio Analyzer feature is only available as an enterprise feature of Pro
ject
Server 2003.
Windows SharePoint Services Provides document library and issues and risks
tracking services when properly configured for Project Server 2003. You can down
load
Windows SharePoint Services from the Microsoft Web site
(http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?linkid=23448), or you can configure an existing
installation of Windows SharePoint Services for Project Server 2003.
Note Project Server 2003 is not compatible with SharePoint® Team Services.
Microsoft Office SharePoint Portal Server 2003 Enables the indexing and
searching of Project Server 2003 document libraries.
Project Professional Provides enterprise-wide project and resource management
capabilities, collaboration functionality, and scenario analysis tools for organ
izations
that require an enterprise project management solution. To access Project Server
2003,
Project Professional 2003 has the following Internet browser requirements:
o Internet Explorer 5.01 with SP3 or later
o Internet Explorer 5.5 with SP2 or later
o Internet Explorer 6 with SP1 or later (recommended)
The Microsoft Office Project Add-in for Outlook® Enables users to keep track of
tasks that are assigned to them in projects. Tasks can be tracked in Microsoft
Outlook 2000 or later (or Outlook Web Access in a limited capacity). The Outlook
Integration add-in is available from the Project Web Access Home page.
Microsoft Internet Explorer version 5.01 (or later) Enables access to the Projec
t
Web Access user interface (UI). Internet Explorer 5.5 or later is required in or
der to
use all available Project Web Access features.
EPM Solution Architecture

The Microsoft EPM Solution is based on a common three-tiered architecture, consi
sting of
a client tier, an application tier, and a database tier.
Note For more information about the EPM Solution architecture, see Chapter 5, Pl
anning Your
EPM Solution Architecture, in the Microsoft Office Project Server 2003 Configura
tion Planning
Guide (http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkID=20235).
Client Tier
The client tier of the Microsoft EPM Solution includes Project Web Access and Pr
oject
Professional. Project Web Access provides access to timesheets, project views, s
tatus
reports, administration pages, and the Build Team feature. It also provides acce
ss to the
document library and risk and issue tracking by means of Windows SharePoint Serv
ices
integration. Project Web Access consists of a set of Microsoft ActiveX® controls
(primarily a grid control) and Hypertext Markup Language (HTML) pages provided b
y
Active Server Pages (ASPs). The ActiveX controls are downloaded the first time y
ou access
Project Web Access. Project Web Access requires Internet Explorer 5.01 or later.
Project Professional 2003 runs on Windows 2000 and later. Project managers can u
se
Project Professional 2003 to publish projects to the Project Server database and
manage
updates to the project information that is stored on the server. You can also us
e Project
Professional 2003 to open, modify, and save enterprise projects and resources.
Application Tier
The application tier is made up of Web-based front-end applications that are int
egrated
with Internet Information Services (IIS). These applications include Project Ser
ver 2003
and Windows SharePoint Services.
Project Server 2003 is the central component of an EPM Solution and is a robust
and
highly scalable Web-based server application. Project Server 2003 runs on Window
s 2000
Server or later and requires Internet Information Services (IIS) version 5.0 or
later.
Windows SharePoint Services is an optional component that integrates with Projec
t
Server 2003 to provide document management and risk and issue tracking. Windows
SharePoint Services is available as a free download from Microsoft at www.micros
oft.com
and is only supported on a computer running Windows Server 2003, IIS 6.0, and
ASP.NET.
Database Tier
SQL Server provides the database tier of the EPM Solution. Project Professional
and
Project Web Access work with both the non-enterprise and enterprise tables in th
e SQL
Server database. Project Server 2003 uses View tables that contain time-phased d
ata for all
projects that are published to the server to reduce the load on the computer run
ning SQL
Server and to allow for greater scalability. Project Server 2003 provides the pr
imary means
of access to the database, although Project Professional can save projects direc
tly to the
database by means of Open Database Connectivity (ODBC).

Installation Roadmaps
This chapter describes four examples of hardware deployments for Microsoft® Office
Project Server 2003. Each example includes a roadmap of, or high-level steps for
, the
installation process to assist you in planning your deployment. Identify the dep
loyment
roadmap in this chapter that most closely matches the architecture that you requ
ire for
your organization, and then follow the procedures in that topic to complete your
installation.
Note Before you install Project Server 2003, read the Microsoft Office Project S
erver 2003
Configuration Planning Guide (http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkID=20235). The
Microsoft
Office Project Server 2003 Configuration Planning Guide includes hardware recomm
endations for
various tested configuration scenarios. When you are planning your hardware requ
irements, be
sure to consider the type of hardware that was used to test the configurations a
nd compare it
against the hardware that you intend to use. If you are using different hardware
, you will see
different performance results.
The procedures in this chapter assume that you have the required hardware for yo
ur
deployment, and that you have installed an appropriate version of Microsoft Wind
ows®,
along with Microsoft SQL Server 2000, Analysis Services (if applicable), and the
required
service packs.
If you are upgrading or migrating from an earlier version of Microsoft Project S
erver, see
Chapter 3, Upgrading to Project Server 2003 from Earlier Versions of Microsoft
Project in the Microsoft Office Project Server 2003 Installation Guide before be
ginning your
deployment. You will need to follow the steps in this chapter when you deploy Pr
oject
Server 2003.
Important Document your installation thoroughly, in case you need to duplicate i
t when recovering
from a system failure or disaster. Keep track of the accounts that you create, c
omputer names,
passwords, and setup options. Be sure you keep a copy of this documentation with
your disaster
recovery materials, preferably in an off-site location.
Single Computer Installation Roadmap
A single computer deployment can support a small- to medium-sized organization a
nd can
be used by a large organization to test Project Server 2003. A single computer d
eployment
supports up to 500 users, but is not ideal for a large-scale production environm
ent. For
information about single computer deployments, including sample hardware sets an
d

Upgrading to Project Server 2003
from Earlier Versions of Microsoft
Project
If you want to use Microsoft® Office Project Server 2003 with data that you have s
tored in
Microsoft Project Central, Microsoft Project Server 2002, or SharePoint® Team Serv
ices
from Microsoft, then you will need to migrate the existing data for use with you
r Project
Server 2003 deployment. You must migrate data from an existing deployment before
you
install Project Server 2003.
Upgrading to Project Server 2003 from earlier versions involves completing one o
r more of
the following processes:
Upgrading from Microsoft Project Central or Microsoft Project
Server 2002 Complete this process if you have data in an existing Microsoft Proj
ect
Central or Microsoft Project Server 2002 deployment and you want to prepare it f
or
use with Project Server 2003.
Upgrading from Microsoft Project Server 2002 and MSDE Complete this process
if you have Project Central or Microsoft Project Server 2002 data in Microsoft
Desktop Engine (MSDE) and you want to upgrade your MSDE database for use with
Project Server 2003.
Migrating from SharePoint Team Services Complete this process if you have
Microsoft Project Server 2002 documents and issues stored in SharePoint Team
Services and you want to migrate that data for use with Project Server 2003.
Upgrading from Microsoft Project Central or Microsoft Project
Server 2002
If you are upgrading from Microsoft Project Central or Microsoft Project Server
2002 to
Project Server 2003, you can migrate your data for use with Project Server 2003.
Complete
this migration process before you install Project Server 2003.
When you migrate Project Central or Microsoft Project Server 2002 data, the Micr
osoft
SQL Server 2000 database schema is upgraded for Project Server 2003. After you
migrate, it is no longer possible to use the database with Project Central or Mi
crosoft
Project Server 2002. If you want to continue using Project Central or Microsoft
Project
Server 2002, back up the database and restore it with a new name, and then perfo
rm the
migration steps on the new database.
Note If your Microsoft Project Server 2002 deployment has outline codes that use
a comma as the
list separator, you need to change the separator to a different character so tha
t the outline codes
will work with Project Server 2003. If your outline codes contain leading or tra
iling white spaces,
you need to remove the white spaces so that the outline codes will work with Pro
ject Server 2003.
You can perform these steps before or after you upgrade.
It is recommended that you run the migration scripts on the computer on which th
e
database that you are migrating is installed.
.. To prepare to upgrade from Microsoft Project Central or Microsoft Project Ser
ver 2002
1. Create a full backup of the Microsoft Project Central or Microsoft Project Se
rver 2002
database that you want to upgrade.
2. In Microsoft Windows® Explorer, browse to the Support folder on the Project
Server 2003 CD.
3. In the Support folder, copy the Database folder to the local disk.
If you are upgrading from Microsoft Project Central, you must first upgrade the
database
from Microsoft Project Central to Microsoft Project Server 2002. After you upgra
de the
database to Microsoft Project Server 2002, you can run the scripts to upgrade to
Project
Server 2003.
.. To upgrade from Microsoft Project Central
1. Open a command prompt window, and then browse to the Database folder.
2. Copy the file osql.exe to the PC2PS02 folder.
3. Open the PC2PS02 folder.
4. Run UPG09DB.cmd by using the following syntax:
UPG09DB.CMD <ServerName> <DatabaseName> <UserName> <Password>
For example:
UPG09DB.CMD PROJSQL2000 ProjectCentral sa hello
5. When the script finishes successfully, follow the procedure To upgrade from
Microsoft Project Server 2002.
6. In SQL Server 2000 Enterprise Manager, create the following two logins by usi
ng SQL
Server Authentication in the database: MSProjectServerUser and MSProjectUser.
7. Create the two database roles that are needed by the Project Server logins:
MSProjectServerRole and MSProjectRole.
8. Grant each role that you created in the previous step login access to the Pro
ject Server
database.
9. Assign the MSProjectServerRole role to the MSProjectServerUser login, and the
n
assign the MSProjectRole role to the MSProjectUser login.
.. To upgrade from Microsoft Project Server 2002

1. Open a command prompt window, and then browse to the Database folder.
2. Run UPG10DB.cmd by using the following syntax:
UPG10DB.cmd <ServerName> <DatabaseName> <UserName> <Password>
For example:
UPG10DB.cmd PROJSQL2002 ProjectServer sa hello
3. When the script finishes successfully, install Project Server 2003 and connec
t to the
upgraded database from the Enter database account information page of Project
Server Setup.
Note When you set up Microsoft Project Server 2002, random passwords are assigne
d to the
ProjectUser and ProjectServerUser accounts. If you do not know the passwords for
these accounts,
you will need to reset them with new passwords before you install Project Server
2003. You must
provide the password information for these accounts when you run Project Server
Setup. To reset
the password, in SQL Server Enterprise Manager, right-click the login, click Pro
perties, and then
type the new password in the Password box.
Upgrading from Microsoft Project Server 2002 and MSDE

To upgrade to Microsoft Office Project Server 2003 from a Microsoft Project Serv
er 2002
installation that is configured to use the Microsoft Desktop Engine (MSDE) 2000,
you
must do the following:
1. Disconnect your Microsoft Project Server 2002 database from MSDE 2000.
Important If you do not disconnect your Microsoft Project Server 2002 database f
rom
MSDE, your data will be lost when you uninstall Microsoft Project Server 2002.
2. Uninstall Microsoft Project Server 2002 and MSDE 2000.
3. Install a new instance of MSDE 2000 and reconnect to your Microsoft Project
Server 2002 database.
4. Upgrade your database for Project Server 2003 and then install Project Server
2003.
Note Microsoft Project Server 2002 is configured to use MSDE when you choose the
Install Now
option in Microsoft Project Server 2002 Setup.
.. To upgrade from Microsoft Project Server 2002 and MSDE 2000
1. Detach your Microsoft Project Server 2002 database from MSDE 2000:
a. Click Start, click Run, type osql -U sa in the Open box, and then click OK.

Migrating from SharePoint Team Services

SharePoint Team Services does not run with Project Server 2003. If you plan to u
pgrade
Microsoft Project Server 2002 to Project Server 2003, you must migrate SharePoin
t Team
Services to Microsoft Windows SharePoint Services.
You can use the Project Server Data Migration tool (PSMigrat.exe) to migrate Pro
ject
Server data from SharePoint Team Services to Windows SharePoint Services. PSMigr
at.exe
extracts the subweb information from SharePoint Team Services into one or more
FrontPage Web Package (.fwp) archive files. For each site, PSMigrat.exe packages
all of the
site content (including documents and issues) into a .cab file and expands the f
ile to
perform additional operations. Then PSMigrat.exe runs the Windows SharePoint Ser
vices
Backup and Restore tool (SMigrate.exe) to add this information to the server run
ning
Windows SharePoint Services. You can download PSMigrat.exe from the Microsoft
Download Center (http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=20877).
Windows SharePoint Services is more robust than SharePoint Team Services and pro
vides
for detailed progress reporting and error logging. Windows SharePoint Services i
s also
easier for administrators to maintain, because much of the application is contro
lled by
automated settings, and easier to install than SharePoint Team Services.
Windows SharePoint Services stores all data related to documents, issues, and ri
sks in a
database. Backup and recovery for Windows SharePoint Services data is based on t
he
backup and recovery principles that apply to SQL Server 2000, which makes disast
er
avoidance and disaster recovery easier to manage.
Requirements for Migrating from SharePoint Team Services
The following are the requirements for migrating from SharePoint Team Services:
The administrator running PSMigrat.exe must be an administrator on both the serv
er
running SharePoint Team Services and the server running Windows SharePoint
Services.
The administrator must provide an account (Windows or SQL Server) that has
read/write permissions to the Project Server 2003 database.
The administrator must first run the Project Server 2003 database upgrade script
s to
upgrade the Microsoft Project Server 2002 database to the Project Server 2003
database format.
The server that you are migrating to must be local (the path must be in the form
//server/site).
If you are migrating to a Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) site, the host name provide
d when
you run PSMigrate.exe must match the hostname on the SSL certificate. If the hos
t
name on the SSL certificate is not a local name, you will need to use a non-SSL
connection to the server for the migration.
Migration to Windows SharePoint Services can be a time-consuming process. To mig

rate
SharePoint Team Services to Windows SharePoint Services, you must use PSMigrat.e
xe to
extract the subweb information from SharePoint Team Services into one or more .f
wp
files. PSMigrat.exe then runs SMigrate.exe to add this information to the server
running
Windows SharePoint Services.
Be sure that you have sufficient disk space for the work directories of PSMigrat
.exe,
especially if you are migrating all the subwebs at once. For each site, PSMigrat
.exe packages
all of the site content (including documents and issues) into a .cab file and ex
pands the file
to perform additional operations.
PSMigrat.exe logging includes:
A text description of all major operations, including the output of SMigrate.exe
.
A silent mode option, whereby progress is written to a log file.
Limitations to Migrating to Windows SharePoint Services

You must be running the version of SharePoint Team Services that was included as
part of
the Microsoft Office XP Service Pack 2 release to be able to migrate a site from
SharePoint
Team Services to Windows SharePoint Services. The site migration process is opti
mized
for use with standard team Web sites. This means that many types of customizatio
ns will
not migrate properly or will not work in a migrated site. Also, because the feat
ure set and
architecture is significantly different in SharePoint Team Services and Windows
SharePoint
Services, several features that you can use in these environments will not work
after
migration.
The following customizations and features will not migrate when you migrate from
SharePoint Team Services to Windows SharePoint Services:
Customized home pages Home pages that you customized by means of a Windows
SharePoint Services compatible Web page editor, such as Microsoft FrontPage® 2002,
will revert to the standard team Web site home page. Home pages that you customi
zed
in the browser will retain their customizations, including views that you added
and
changes that you made to the Quick Launch bar.
Customized link bars Link bars, such as the top link bar, that you customized by
means of a Windows SharePoint Services compatible Web page editor, such as
FrontPage 2002, will revert to the standard link bars.
Custom Active Server Pages (ASP) included in the site By default, the Internet
Server Application Programming Interface (ISAPI) filter for Windows SharePoint
Services blocks the use of any ASP pages that are not part of the Windows ShareP
oint
Services installation. If you want to use custom ASP pages with your upgraded
Windows SharePoint Services sites, you must put the ASP pages in a separate virt
ual
directory and create an excluded path for the directory in Windows SharePoint
Services. This allows IIS rather than Windows SharePoint Services to control the
directory, and allows the ASP pages to run.
Custom pages that link to SharePoint Team Services lists The SMigrate.exe tool
does not include an automatic fix-up tool. After migration, any links that you c
reated
to point to specific lists will be broken. You can update the links to refer to
the current
list location after migration.
Subsites that have the same name as a wildcard inclusion or exclusion If you
have set up included and excluded paths for the server that will host the migrat
ed sites,
be sure that the names of those paths do not conflict with the names of the site
s to be
migrated. For example, if you had a subsite named http://servername/sitename, an
d
the /sites path on the new server is a wildcard inclusion, the
http://servername/sitename subsite will not be migrated.
Files or folders with leading or trailing spaces Windows SharePoint Services doe
s
not support leading or trailing spaces ( filename.doc , or filename .doc ). You must
change the file name and then add the file manually to your site.
Files with file extensions that are blocked in Windows SharePoint Services A
new feature enables server administrators to control whether specific file types
can be
uploaded or downloaded to the server. If a file in your site uses one of these f
ile
extensions (for example, .exe), the file will not be migrated to the new site.
Long file and folder names (more than 255 characters) File and folder names that
are longer than 255 characters are not supported in Windows SharePoint Services.
You
can rename the files or folders that have long names before migrating a site or
rename
them after migration and add them manually to the new site.
Links with long URLs (more than 255 characters) URLs that are longer than 255
characters are not supported in Windows SharePoint Services.
User account limits User account limits are not supported in Windows SharePoint
Services.
Local user accounts Local user accounts are not supported when running Windows
SharePoint Services with Microsoft Office Project Server 2003.
Security permissions Security permissions do not translate directly from SharePo
int
Team Services to Windows SharePoint Services. The SMigrate.exe tool will apply t
he
same or greater permissions.
Folders under an Attachments subfolder of a list If your original site contains
a
list with an Attachments subfolder, with files or subfolders inside it, the Atta
chments
folder will not be migrated. The attachments feature in Windows SharePoint Servi
ces is
enabled for that list, so that you can copy the related files or subfolders over
and add
them as attachments to items in the list.
Custom fields with specific names Smigrate.exe will not properly migrate custom
fields with the following names:
Assigned By
Assigned To
Assigned Date
Approval Level
Approval Date
Approved By
Categories
If you have fields with these names, change the names before you migrate to Wind

Migrating a SharePoint Team Services Site to Windows

SharePoint Services
Follow the procedure in this topic to migrate your SharePoint Team Services data
to a
server running Windows SharePoint Services.
Note It is recommended that you migrate the public documents site last.
.. To migrate a SharePoint Team Services site to Windows SharePoint Services
1. Install Windows SharePoint Services on a different computer from SharePoint T
eam
Services by using the procedures in the topic Installing Windows SharePoint
Services with a New Database in Chapter 5, Configure Windows SharePoint
Services of the Microsoft Office Project Server 2003 Installation Guide.
Note When you run the Windows SharePoint Services Configuration Wizard, run it f
rom the
command line (WSSWiz.exe) with the f switch. This will copy the Project Server te
mplates
to the server running Windows SharePoint Services without setting up a new site.
2. On the server running SharePoint Team Services, be sure that you have install
ed
Microsoft Office XP Service Pack 3 (SP3).
Note Office XP SP3 contains the OWS1002.exe update file that is required for mig
rating
SharePoint Team Services to Windows SharePoint Services. This enables SharePoint
Team
Services to export additional schema information about SharePoint Team Services
subwebs
and is required by the Windows SharePoint Services Backup and Restore tool
(SMigrate.exe) during the migration process.
For more information about Office XP SP3, see Appendix I, Service Packs for Proj
ect Server
Components, in the Microsoft Office Project Server 2003 Installation Guide.
3. Run STSWiz.exe on the server running SharePoint Team Services. STSWiz.exe can
be
found in the Support folder on the Microsoft Project Server 2002 CD.
4. Run PSMigrat.exe. Insert your Office Project Server 2003 CD into your CD-ROM
drive. Click Start and then click Run. Type CMD and click OK. At the command
prompt, change to your CD-ROM drive and change to the \SUPPORT\PSMIGRAT
folder. This tool requires the following information:
The Windows SharePoint Services managed path under which the newly migrated
sites will be created.
The folder where all the backup files will be stored.
The connection information for the Project Server 2003 database.
The range of project IDs (optional).
The location of the log file (optional).
Note To view parameter options that can be run with PSMigrate.exe, see the topic
Project
Server Data Migration Tool in Appendix B, Project Server Installation Tools of t
he Microsoft
For example, you can run the following:
PSMigrat.exe w http://wss_svr/projects
-f \\<serverName>\<path to server> -dbserver <serverName>
-dblogin <loginName> -dbpassword <password> -p <prefix>
Note You must run PSMigrat.exe from the computer running Windows SharePoint Serv
ices.
For each subweb, PSMigrat.exe does the following:

1. Verifies that the OWS1002.exe update is installed on the server running Share
Point
Team Services.
2. Backs up each subweb on the server running SharePoint Team Services by perfor
ming
the following steps:
a. Creating a working folder in the same file directory, and then extracting the
file
manifest.xml.
b. Modifying the file manifest.xml and does the following:
Inserting a new template ID (6215).
Changing the Comments field types to Note field types for Documents and Issues.
Changing the issue list type to 101 so that it can be migrated into a custom lis
t.
c. Renaming the issues list to avoid naming conflicts.

d. Rebuilding the .cab file and names it after the project ID.
e. Deleting the working directory (unless bo is specified).
3. Runs the SMigrate.exe tool to migrate SharePoint Team Services information to

the
new server running Windows SharePoint Services.
4. Updates the list global universal identifications (GUIDs) and new site addres
ses in the
Project Server 2003 database.
5. Migrates Issues from the custom list type in SharePoint Team Services to the
Windows
SharePoint Services Issues list type.
6. Updates site properties in the server running Windows SharePoint Services.
7. Updates the Project Server 2003 database with the new site address and the ne
w list
GUIDs.

Prepare the Servers
This chapter describes how to prepare your servers prior to installing Microsoft®
Office
Project Server 2003. Follow these steps in conjunction with one of the installat
ion
roadmaps in Chapter 2, Installation Roadmaps in the Microsoft Office Project Ser
ver 2003
Installation Guide.
Create User Accounts
To install Project Server 2003, you must create the following user accounts:
Note These accounts will only be used by Project Server 2003.
A Microsoft Windows® domain user account or local user account to allow Project
Server 2003 to access Microsoft SQL Server 2000 Analysis Services. Use this
account when you create an OLAP administrator later in this chapter.
If you create a local user account, you must create identical accounts with iden
tical
passwords on each of the following computers in your deployment:
The computer running Analysis Services.

The computer running the Project Server Front-End service.
The computer running the Project Server View Processing service.
Note Some deployments do not have separate computers for each of the components
listed.
Microsoft Windows SharePoint® Services, to allow Project Server 2003 to access
Windows SharePoint Services. You can use a generic name for this account, such a
s
MSProjServ, and set the password to never expire. You will use this account when
you
create a Windows SharePoint Services administrator, and you will specify this ac
count
on the Enter account information for Microsoft Windows SharePoint Services
(continued) page in Project Server Setup.
A Windows domain user or local user account to allow the Project Server Front-En
d
service to access the Views Staging shared folder on the computer on which the V
iew
Processing service is located. This account must be located on both the computer
running the Project Server Front-End service and the computer running the Projec
t
Server View Processing service. During Project Server Views Processing Setup, a
Views Staging folder is specified and created. The Windows account that you spec
ify is
then assigned the required permissions to the folder.
Note This account is only required if you plan to install the View Processing se
rvice on a
different computer than the computer on which you install the Project Server Fro
nt-End
service.
A SQL Server account on the instance of SQL Server 2000 where the Project Server
database will be located. This account must belong to the Database Creators and
Security Administrators roles. This account will only be used for the purposes o
f
creating the Project Server database. It will not be stored and used after insta
llation.
Note You can use your system administrator (sa) account or an existing account t
hat is a
member of the same roles. If your Windows account belongs to the appropriate SQL
Server
roles, you can use Windows authentication as long as you are not partitioning yo
ur
database.
A SQL Server login for the computer on which Windows SharePoint Services is
installed. This account must belong to the Database Creators and Security
Administrators roles. Windows authentication is the preferred authentication met
hod,
although you can also select SQL Server authentication. This account will be use

than the
computer on which Project Server 2003 is installed, the Decision Support Objects
(DSO)
component of Analysis Services must be installed on the computer running Project
Server 2003.
If you install the Project Server 2003 View Processing service on a different co
mputer than
the computer on which the Project Server 2003 Front-End service is installed, yo
u must
install DSO on both computers.
Note You must also install SQL Server 2000 Analysis Services Service Pack 3 (SP3
) on the
computers on which you install the DSO component of Analysis Services. For more
information

Configure Internet Information Services

Both Project Server 2003 and Windows SharePoint Services require Internet Inform
ation
Services (IIS). Enable IIS on the computer on which you will install Project Ser
ver 2003
and Windows SharePoint Services.
It is recommended that you configure IIS to use Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) for i
ncreased
security. If you do not configure IIS to use SSL, potentially sensitive data wil
l be sent in
plaintext between the clients and servers in your deployment. For example:
If you are using Project Server 2003 accounts, user names and passwords are sent
from
client to server in plaintext.
All information exposed through the Project Data Service (PDS) is transmitted in
plaintext, including a SQL Server username and password.
Microsoft Office Project Web Access users can transmit potentially sensitive com
pany
data between client and server.
For more information about configuring IIS to use SSL, see your IIS documentatio
n.
.. To enable IIS on a computer running Windows 2000 Server
1. Click Start, click Settings, and then click Control Panel.
2. Double-click Add/Remove Programs.
3. Select Configure Windows, click the Components button, and then follow the on
-
screen instructions to install, remove, or add components to IIS.

2. On the Manage Your Server page, click Add or remove a role.

3. On the Preliminary Steps pane, click Next.
4. On the Server Role pane, click Application server (IIS, ASP.NET), and then cl
ick
Next.
5. For computers on which you will install Windows SharePoint Services, in the
Application Server Options pane, select the Enable ASP.NET check box.
6. Click Next, and then click Next again to begin the installation.
7. When the installation is complete, on the This Server is Now an Application s
erver
page, click Finish.
8. Close the Manage Your Server application.
9. Click Start, point to Administrative Tools, and then click Internet Informati
on
Services (IIS) Manager.
10. In Internet Information Services Manager, click the plus (+) sign next to th
e server
name, and then right-click the Web Sites folder and select Properties.
11. Click the Service tab.
12. In the Isolation mode section, clear the Run WWW service in IIS 5.0 isolatio
n
mode check box, and then click OK.
Note The Run WWW service in IIS 5.0 isolation mode check box is only selected if
you
upgraded to IIS 6.0 on Windows Server 2003 from IIS 5.0 on Windows 2000 Server.
New
installations of IIS 6.0 default to IIS 6.0 worker process isolation mode.
Configure Internet Explorer Enhanced Security
By default, Microsoft Windows Server 2003 provides a set of security settings cal
led
Internet Explorer Enhanced Security Configuration. These settings limit the type
s of
content that a user at the server can view by using Microsoft Internet Explorer,
except for
sites listed in the Local intranet and Trusted sites zones. For example, by defa
ult,
scripting on Internet pages will not run. The goal of these settings is to help
ensure that a
local user on a computer that is also running as a server will not download a vi
rus or other
harmful files from the Internet and infect the server. Internet Explorer Enhance
d Security
Configuration does not affect remote users who view content on the server; it af
fects only
users running Internet Explorer on the server itself.
Using Internet Explorer Enhanced Security Configuration on a Web server running
Project
Server 2003 or Windows SharePoint Services prevents some code that is necessary
for
viewing site pages or Administration pages from running. Remote users with prope
r access
rights can still view the pages correctly, but a user running Internet Explorer
on the server
will be unable to view or administer the site. The user at the server will also
be unable to
view and administer a remote SharePoint or Project Server site, because of the s
ecurity
settings.
To help ensure that Windows SharePoint Services and Project Server 2003 work pro
perly
in your environment, you can do one of the following:
Uninstall Internet Explorer Enhanced Security Configuration. If you are not
concerned about users working locally at the Web server, an administrator can un
install
Internet Explorer Enhanced Security Configuration by using Add or Remove
Programs.
Add the SharePoint and Project Server sites to the list of Local intranet sites.
This is a more time-consuming solution, but potentially more secure. A server
administrator can add the URLs of all virtual servers that are being hosted to t
he
Internet Explorer Local intranet zone.
.. To uninstall Internet Explorer Enhanced Security Configuration

1. On the computer on which you will install Windows SharePoint Services, click
Start,
click Settings, and then click Control Panel.
2. Double-click Add/Remove Programs.
3. Click Add/Remove Windows Components.
4. In the Components list, clear the Internet Explorer Enhanced Security
Configuration check box, and then click Next.
The Internet Explorer Enhanced Security Configuration component is removed.
5. Click Finish.
.. To add the SharePoint and Project Server sites to the list of Local intranet
sites
1. On the computers on which you will install Windows SharePoint Services and Pr
oject
Server, open Internet Explorer.
2. On the Tools menu, select Internet Options.
3. Click the Security tab, and then click the Local intranet icon.
4. Click Sites.
5. Click Advanced.
6. Type the URL for the site that you want to add, and then click Add.
7. Repeat step 6 for each site that you want to add. When you are finished addin
g sites,
click Close, and then click OK.

Configure Windows SharePoint
Services
You can install Microsoft® Windows® SharePoint® Services in one of the following
configurations:
New database If you are installing the first instance of Windows SharePoint Serv
ices
in your Microsoft Office Project Server 2003 deployment, and you are using Micro
soft
SQL Server 2000 for your Windows SharePoint Services database, follow the
procedures for installing Windows SharePoint Services with a new database.
Existing database If you are installing a second copy of Windows SharePoint
Services for use on a network load balancing cluster, or if you need to reinstall
Windows SharePoint Services and connect to your existing Windows SharePoint
Services content database, follow the procedures for installing Windows SharePoi
nt
Services with an existing database.
WMSDE If you are installing Windows SharePoint Services to use Microsoft
Desktop Engine (Windows) (WMSDE), follow the procedures for installing Windows
SharePoint Services with WMSDE.
If you choose to install Windows SharePoint Services later, you must use Project
Web
Access to configure Project Server 2003 to connect to Windows SharePoint Service
s. For
more information, see the topic Configuring Windows SharePoint Services Settings
in
Chapter 8, Post-Installation Tasks of the Microsoft Office Project Server 2003 I
nstallation
Guide.
Note If you configure Windows SharePoint Services to use Secure Sockets Layer (S
SL), you must
use SSL for both the Administration site and the virtual server. The virtual ser
ver must be
configured to use the default port of 443.
If you do not have Windows SharePoint Services, you can download it from the Mic
rosoft
Web site (http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=23448).

Deploy the Database
Project Server Setup in Microsoft® Office Project Server 2003 can automatically cr
eate the
Project Server database. Allowing Project Server Setup to create the database fo
r you
automatically is the best option for most deployment scenarios.
This chapter describes how to manually deploy your Project Server database prior
to
installing Project Server 2003. Use the procedures in this chapter if you want t
o create the
database prior to installing Project Server 2003, or if you are using database p
artitioning
options or Microsoft Desktop Engine (MSDE).
Creating the Project Server Database Manually
You can create the Project Server database manually by using a Microsoft
SQL Server 2000 script provided on the Project Server 2003 CD. Use this procedure
if
you do not want the database to be created by the Project Server Setup program.
Running this script requires a SQL Server login that is a member of the Systems
Administrator role on the computer on which you are creating the database. It is
also
possible to use the SQL Server sa account for this purpose.
Note It is recommended that you run the scripts on the computer on which you are
creating the
database.
.. To create the Project Server database
1. In SQL Server 2000 Enterprise Manager, create a new database for use with Pro
ject
Server 2003.
2. In Microsoft Windows® Explorer, browse to the Support folder on the Project
Server 2003 CD.
3. In the Support folder, copy the Database folder to a location on your databas
e server.
4. Open a command prompt window, and then browse to the Database folder where yo
u
copied it locally.
5. Run Setupdb.cmd by using the following syntax:
SETUPDB.cmd <SQL ServerName> <DatabaseName> <UserName> <Password>
NOPAUSE
For example,
Setupdb.cmd PROJSQL2003 ProjectServer MyAccount hello NOPAUSE
Notes
If you omit the UserName and Password parameters, the script will use NTLM
authentication.
NOPAUSE is an optional parameter that will cause setupdb.cmd to return to the co
mmand
prompt after completion.
6. Using SQL Server Query Analyzer and connecting with your login account, run
PSRoles.sql from within the Project Server database context.
This script creates the two database roles needed by the Project Server logins:
7. Using SQL Server Enterprise Manager, go to the Security folder, select Login,
and
create the following two logins: MSProjectServerUser and MSProjectUser. Be sure
to
use SQL Server authentication and to select the new database on the Database
Access tab.
8. On the Database Access tab, assign the MSProjectServerRole role to the
MSProjectServerUser login, and then assign the MSProjectRole role to the
MSProjectUser login.
When the script finishes successfully, partition the database if necessary, and
then install
Project Server 2003 and connect to the new database during Project Server Setup.
Partitioning the Database

If you created the Project Server database manually and you want to partition it
prior to
installing Project Server 2003, you can use the procedures in this topic to part
ition the
Project Server databases and then connect to these databases during Project Serv
er Setup.
These procedures require you run the partition scripts with a SQL Server login t
hat is a
member of the Systems Administrator role on each instance of SQL Server in your
deployment. When you create this account, it will require the same password on e
ach
server. It is recommended that you delete these logins when you are finished par
titioning
the database. It is also possible to use the SQL Server sa account, so long as t
he password
is the same on each server. The sa account cannot be deleted.
Important
SQL Server uses the Microsoft Distributed Transaction Coordinator (MSDTC) automa
tically with
Project Server database partitioning. Be sure that MSDTC is installed on each co
mputer running
SQL Server in your deployment. If you are also running SQL Server in a cluster,
some database
transactions will fail unless you use the COM+ Wizard (Comclust.exe) to configur
e the cluster. Using
this tool routes all MSDTC requests to the computer in the cluster that is runni
ng MSDTC for the
cluster. For information about configuring the cluster by using Comclust.exe, se
e the Microsoft Web
site (http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=19684). If MSDTC is not installed o
n your computer,
you can install it from the SQL Server 2000 CD.
By default, the network access settings of MSDTC are disabled on new installatio
ns of SQL
Server 2000 on computers running Microsoft Windows Server 2003. If you are partit
ioning on a
computer running Windows Server 2003, follow the procedure in Microsoft Knowledg
e Base article
329332 (http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=19685) to be sure that your MSDTC
settings are
correct. After you complete the procedure, restart your computer.
Partitioning the Database for New Deployments
Use the procedures in this topic to set up database partitioning as part of a ne
w Project
Server deployment. Complete these procedures assume before you install Project
Server 2003 and its associated components. You can also partition your database
after you
install Project Server 2003. For more information, see the topic Database Partit
ioning in
Chapter 10, System Optimization of the Microsoft Office Project Server 2003 Inst
allation Guide.
You can partition your database in of the following three ways:
By partitioning the View tables to move the View tables to a separate database s
erver.
By partitioning the Project tables to move the Project tables to a separate data
base
server.
By using three-way partitioning to move both the Project tables and the View tab
les to
separate database servers.
Important These procedures should only be used by someone who is familiar with S
QL
Server 2000 and experienced with the database creation process, security, and ed
iting and
executing scripts across a multi-server environment. All steps listed in these p
rocedures must be
performed in the order in which they are listed.
The files required for the procedures in this topic can be found on the Project
Server 2003
CD in the Support/Database folder. It is recommended that you copy this folder t
o each
of the database computers in your deployment.
Partitioning the View Tables
You can move the Project Server 2003 View tables to a separate database server.
This
configures the databases as follows:
Main database server Contains the Web tables, Cube tables, Project tables, and
Security views.
View Tables database server Contains the View tables.
Project Server Setup can partition the View tables for you when you are installi
ng Project
Server 2003. If you prefer to do so manually before running Project Server Setup
, complete
the following procedures.
.. To configure the View Tables database server
1. In SQL Server 2000 Enterprise Manager, create a new Project Server database f
or the
View tables (for example, ProjectServerVIEW).

and
to
Access tab.
Important Be sure that the user names and passwords for these database logins ar
e the
same on both your Main database server and your View Tables database server.
5. Using SQL Server Query Analyzer and connecting with your login account, run t
he
following scripts from within the Project Server database context:
a. ProjTbls.sql
b. WebTbls.sql
c. CubeTbls.sql
d. SecViews.sql
e. ProjSPS.Sql
f. WebSPS.Sql
6. Using the Osql tool (on the Project Server 2003 CD in the /Support/Database f
older)
and connecting to the main database with your login account, run PjcrtSPS.sql.
Important You must run this script with Osql. SQL Server Query Analyzer will not
open this
script file because of the line length of the binary data in the last UPDATE com
mand. The
Osql command must be in the following format and must be run from the command li
ne on
the server. You can run this command-line tool from either database server.
osql S <MainDatabaseServerName> -d <MainDatabaseName> -U <Login>
-P <Password> -i <Input File>
For example:
osql S PSMain d ProjectServerMAIN U MyAccount P hello i
PjcrtSPS.sql
7. Using SQL Server Query Analyzer and connecting with your login account, creat
e a
linked server by using the following command:
EXEC sp_addlinkedserver <ViewTablesDatabaseServerName>, N'SQL
Server'
For example:
EXEC sp_addlinkedserver PSView, N'SQL Server'
LnkViews.sql from within the Project Server database context.
9. Using SQL Server Query Analyzer and connecting with your login account, execu
te the
ExecLinkedViewsSP stored procedure as follows:
EXEC ExecLinkedViewsSP <ViewTablesDatabaseServerName>,

Deploying Project Server 2003 with MSDE

You can use MSDE 2000 to host your Project Server database. However, MSDE has
significant performance limitations and is not recommended for anything beyond t
he most
basic test deployment.
The limitations to using MSDE instead of SQL Server as the repository for the Pr
oject
Server database include:
Maximum number of connections MSDE has a managed concurrency workload
governor that limits up to five concurrent batch workloads for optimal performan
ce.
As batch workloads are added that increase the number past five, the concurrency
governor slows down the system. However, MSDE 2000 has no limitations on the
number of users who can be connected to the database.
Maximum database size MSDE supports up to a 2 gigabyte (GB) database. A
single computer can host multiple instances of MSDE, with each instance supporti
ng
up to a 2 GB database.
Maximum memory usage MSDE is limited to 1 GB of memory, regardless of how
much memory is available on the computer.
Administration tools MSDE does not come with the administration tools that are
provided with SQL Server, including SQL Server Enterprise Manager, SQL Server
Query Analyzer, and SQL Server Profiler. All administration must be performed by
using the Osql command-line tool or by using the administration tools that are
installed with a separate instance of SQL Server.
.. To install MSDE SP3

Install Project Server 2003
Microsoft® Office Project Server 2003 is composed of three services:
Project Server Front-End service The Project Server Front-End service runs on th
e
computer running Internet Information Services (IIS).
Session Manager service The Session Manager service manages user session state i
n
Microsoft Office Project Web Access 2003. When used in a clustered environment,
the
Session Manager service should be deployed on its own server outside the cluster
. This
enables users to be directed to any one of the clustered application servers.
View Processing service The View Processing service creates the project views fo
r
Project Web Access. Each time a resource or project is checked in to Project Ser
ver,
the View tables are updated. Because this can be extremely processor-intensive,
moving this service to a separate server can greatly reduce the workload for the
computer running Project Server 2003.
Project Server Setup installs these services. You can install all services on th
e same
computer, or you can distribute the services across multiple computers.
If you distribute Project Server services across multiple computers, you must ru
n Project
Server Setup on each computer on which you want to run a service.
For more information about when to install Project Server services on separate c
omputers,
see the Microsoft Office Project Server 2003 Configuration Planning Guide
(http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkID=20235).
To see a visual representation of the relationships between the various Project
Server Setup
steps, see the Project Server Setup Flow Diagram on the Microsoft Web site

Migrate the Analysis Services Repository to a SQL Server

Database
Each server running Microsoft SQL Server 2000 Analysis Services has a repository
to
store metadata for the objects of the computer running Analysis Services (for ex
ample,
cubes and dimensions). By default, this repository is a Microsoft Access (.mdb)
database on
the server on which Analysis Services is installed. Migrate the repository to a
Microsoft
SQL Server 2000 (.mdf) database to avoid permissions issues for users accessing
the Access
database from another computer.
Notes
You can migrate the repository at any time after installing Analysis Services as
long as SQL Server is
installed and a database for the repository exists.
The OLAP administrators group on the computer running SQL Server needs to be gra
nted
DB_OWNER permission for the repository. To do this, add a user in the repository
database to the
OLAP Administrators group, and then give that group DB_OWNER permissions on the
repository
database. This ensures that any user in the OLAP Administrators group is granted
the permissions
that are listed.
.. To migrate the Analysis Services repository
1. In SQL Server, create a new database and name it Analysis Services Repository
.
2. Under Security, right-click Logins and then click New Login.
3. For the name of the login, click ... and select the OLAP Administrators group
for this
computer.
4. On the Database Access tab, select the Analysis Services Repository database.
5. Under Permit in Database Role, select db_owner.
6. Log on to the computer running Analysis Services by using a user account that
has
permissions that are equivalent to either the Administrators group or OLAP
Administrators group, and start Analysis Manager.
7. In the left pane, expand Analysis Servers.
8. Right-click the name of your server, and then click Migrate Repository to sta
rt the
Migrate Repository Wizard. Migrate the repository to the database that you creat
ed.
Note It is recommended that you choose the Analysis Services native format when
migrating the repository.
9. After you migrate the repository to a SQL Server database, you can safely del
ete the
old repository. By default, this database is \Program Files\Microsoft Analysis
Services\Bin\msmdrep.mdb.
Add Users to Cube Database Roles in Analysis Services

SQL Server Analysis Services uses Windows authentication to control access to OL
AP
cubes for example, when using Portfolio Analyzer. By default, the OLAP cube databa
se
created by Project Server 2003 has no database roles defined so that only users
or groups
that are specifically added have access to the cubes.
Note This procedure cannot be performed until you build an OLAP cube database. T
o determine
the status of the cube database, open Project Web Access, and then click Admin i
n the top link bar
to go to the Admin Center. In the side pane, click Manage enterprise features, a
nd then click
Update resource tables and OLAP cube. The status of the OLAP cube database is sh
own under
Current Cube Status.
.. To add users to cube database roles
1. Log on to the Analysis Services computer by using a user account that has per
missions
equivalent to either of the Administrators or OLAP Administrators groups, and st
art
Analysis Manager.
2. Expand the name of your server under Analysis Servers to see the cube databas
es on
that computer.
3. Right-click the name of the database (as shown in the Cube name box of the Up
date
Resource Tables and OLAP Cubes page in Project Web Access), and then click
Manage Roles.
4. Click New, and type a name for the new database role in the Role name box.
5. On the Membership tab, click Add to add users and groups to the role, and the
n click
OK.
6. On the Cubes tab, click Check All to enable access to all three cubes in the
database.
7. Click OK to add the role.
Enable Users to Log on By Using a Different Windows User

Account
When Project Server 2003 attempts to use Windows authentication to authenticate
a user,
the default assumption is that the user is using a computer with which he or she
has already
logged on to the network using a Windows user account (Integrated Windows
authentication). However, this might not always be the case. For example, a user
might
want to view Project Server information from someone else's computer or by using
a
common computer that is shared by several people and from which the user has not
logged
on with his or her Windows user account.
In this case, when the user goes to a Project Server site, the Logon page opens
instead of
the Home page. The user must then click the Log on using a different Microsoft
Windows user account link on the left side of the page. After entering his or he
r
Windows user account information, the user is authenticated by means of Basic
authentication and is then directed to the Home page.
To enable users to use the Log on using a different Microsoft Windows user accou
nt
link on the Logon page, the administrator must perform the following steps on th
e
computer running Project Server 2003:
1. Enable Basic authentication for the Project Server virtual directory and for
the Remote
Data Services ISAPI Library (msadcs.dll) by using the Microsoft Management Conso
le
(MMC) snap-in for Internet Information Services (IIS).
2. Set up the Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) features of IIS for greater security.
For more information about SSL, see your IIS documentation.
For more information about the Windows administrative tools, see your Microsoft
Windows 2000 Server or Microsoft Windows Server 2003 documentation.
.. To enable Basic authentication for the Project Server virtual directory
1. On the left pane of the Internet Information Services window, right-click the
virtual
directory, and then click Properties.
2. Click the Directory Security tab and then click Edit in the Authentication Co
ntrol
section.
3. Select the Basic authentication check box, and then click Yes when asked if y
ou
want to continue.
4. Click OK to apply your changes, and then click OK to close the dialog box.
5. Click OK to close the Inheritance Overrides dialog box without making any cha
nges.
.. To enable Basic authentication for msadcs.dll

1. Select the MSADC virtual directory in the left pane of the Internet Informati
on
Services window.
2. Right-click msadcs.dll in the right pane and then click Properties.
3. Click the Directory Security tab, and then click Edit in the Anonymous Access
and
Authentication Control section.
4. Select the Basic authentication check box, and then click Yes when asked if y
ou
want to continue.
5. Click OK to apply your changes, and then click OK to close the dialog box.
Configuring Project Professional for Project Server 2003

5. Close and restart Project Professional.
Add Project Server and Windows SharePoint Services as Trusted

Sites in Internet Explorer
In order to access data stored in Project Server 2003 by using Project Web Acces
s, the
Project Server and Windows SharePoint Services URLs must be listed as trusted si
tes in
Internet Explorer. The first time you connect to Project Server 2003 from Projec
t
Professional, the Project Server Security Login dialog box will add the URL for
Project
Server 2003 to the list of trusted sites when you click Make Server Trusted. If
you are
using Windows SharePoint Services, you need to manually add the Windows SharePoi
nt
Services URL as a trusted site.
.. To manually add a trusted site in Internet Explorer

Updating the MSP_WEB_ADMIN Table for Hosted

Deployments By Using Windows SharePoint Services
A hosted deployment is a large installation of Project Server 2003 that hosts Pr
oject Server
site collections for departments or divisions within the organization. The host
can also be
an application service provider that hosts Project Server site collections for o
ther
companies, similar to the way that an Internet service provider (ISP) hosts Web
sites.
In a Project Server hosted deployment, a single installation of Project Server 2
003 hosts
multiple instances of Project Web Access, each with its own SQL Server database.
Typically, in a hosted deployment, multiple Project Server sites share a single
Windows
SharePoint Services content database. When this occurs, it is imperative to manu
ally
configure a column in the MSP_WEB_ADMIN table of the Project database. In this t
able,
the WADMIN_IS_HOSTED_ORG column must be set to a value of 1 (default is 0).
Configuring this value to 1 in a hosted environment prevents groups within your
organization from accessing Windows SharePoint Services data from other groups.

Extranet and Non-Trusted Domain
Scenarios
This chapter provides information about implementing a Microsoft® Office Project
Server 2003 extranet and about configuring your deployment for a non-trusted dom
ain.
Configuring Project Server 2003 for the Extranet
You can provide connectivity to Project Server 2003 by means of the Internet by
deploying
an additional Project Server installation outside your firewall. In this scenari
o, authorized
non-domain users and users from other domains can access Project Server 2003 ove
r the
Internet or through a virtual private network.
After you install Project Server 2003, you can implement a Project Server extran
et to
expand your deployment to include extranet access.
For the Web site that is hosting the external-facing Project Server virtual dire
ctory, it is
recommended that you use Secure Sockets Layer (SSL). The Web site should also ha
ve
anonymous access and Integrated Windows® authentication enabled.
Set up Analysis Services to Be Accessible By Means of
HTTP
Project Server 2003 uses Microsoft Office Web Components to bind directly to the
server
running Analysis Services. In order for this to work over the extranet, you must
configure it
correctly. For information about configuring Analysis Services to be accessible
over the
Internet, see Knowledge Base article 279489: How to Connect to Analysis Server 20
00 By
Using HTTP Connection on the Microsoft Web site
Note You must be running SQL Server 2000 Enterprise Edition in order to enable P
ortfolio
Analyzer to be available over the Internet. Internet Information Services (IIS)
must also be installed
on the Analysis Services server.
.. To set up the server running Analysis Services for HTTP
1. On the server running Analysis Services, copy the file Msolap.asp from Progra
m
Files\Microsoft Analysis Services\Bin to either Inetpub\Wwwroot or to a subfolde
r
under wwwroot.
2. To ensure that Msolap.asp is installed and working properly, in the Address b
ar in
Internet Explorer, type the following URL:
http://Analysis_Services_Server_Name/Msolap.asp
3. If everything is working properly, you will see a blank page instead of an er
ror message
indicating that the page cannot be displayed.
Note This URL must be accessible by means of the Internet, or you will receive a
n error
message.
4. Set the new copy of Msolap.asp to use Basic authentication and Integrated Win
dows®
authentication by doing the following:
a. Open Internet Information Services (IIS) Manager.
b. Expand Web Sites and find the Web site on which you placed the copy of
Msolap.asp.
c. Right-click Msolap.asp and then click Properties.
d. Click the File Security tab and then make changes in the Anonymous Access
and Authentication Control dialog box.
e. Be sure that both the Basic authentication and Integrated Windows
authentication check boxes are selected.
Note It is strongly recommended that SSL be used on the server running Analysis
Services so that data is encrypted when it is sent between client and server. It
is
particularly important that Microsoft Windows passwords are encrypted by means o
f
SSL.
5. Set up connection strings in the Portfolio Analyzer view. After the server ru
nning
Analysis Services is configured to be available over the Internet, you must comp
lete the
following steps for all Portfolio Analyzer views that will be available over the
Internet::
a. On a computer that is within the intranet, log on to Microsoft Office Project
Web
Access 2003 as an administrator.
b. Click Admin.
c. On the Administration overview page, click Manage enterprise features.
d. In the OLAP cube name and description section, in the Analysis Server
extranet address box, type the extranet address for the server running Analysis
Services. This will be used later when a user tries to view a Portfolio Analyzer
view
that is built on the intranet from the extranet. This enables the administrator
to
create views that are accessible from the intranet as well as the extranet.
Optionally, you can create views that are accessible only by means of the extran
et by
doing the following:
a. On the Administration overview page, click Manage views.
b. Click Add View.
c. Select the Portfolio Analyzer option.
d. In the Analysis Server box, type the extranet address for the analysis server
, and
then click Apply to bind to the cube over the extranet.
When you save this view, it will be accessible only by means of the extranet.
When users try to access this extranet-enabled view from Microsoft Project or fr
om the
Resource Center of Microsoft Project Web Access, they will be prompted to enter
their
Windows user account name and password before they can see the view. Because the
Windows user account name and password are sent in plaintext, you should be sure
to
configure Project Web Access to use SSL so that information will be sent encrypt
ed.
Configure Your Deployment
To configure your Project Server deployment for extranet access, complete the fo
llowing
procedure.
.. To configure Project Server 2003 for the extranet

1. Install Project Server 2003.
Note For information about installing Project Server 2003, see Chapter 7, Instal
l Project
Server 2003, in the Microsoft Office Project Server 2003 Installation Guide.
2. Set up the server running Analysis Services to be accessible by means of HTTP

.
3. If you are using Microsoft Windows SharePoint® Services, deploy a second Window
s
SharePoint Services installation outside your firewall. Connect to the content d
atabase
for your existing deployment. For more information, see the topic Installing
Windows SharePoint Services with an Existing Database in Chapter 5,
Configuring Windows SharePoint Services, of the Microsoft Office Project 2003
Installation Guide.
4. Deploy a second Project Server installation outside your firewall. When you r
un
Project Server Setup, choose to connect to an existing database on the Enter
Database Server Information page. For more information, see the topic Choosing
Database Options in Chapter 7, Install Project Server 2003, of the Microsoft Off
ice
Project 2003 Installation Guide.
5. On the Project Server installation that is located outside your firewall, add
the
following registry key under HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Office\11.0\MS
Project\Webclient Server\ProjectServer\Datasets\STS:
Name
Type
Data
IsExtranet
REG_DWORD
1
6. On the Project Server installation that is located outside your firewall, add
the
following registry keys under HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Office\11.0\MS
Project\Webclient Server\ProjectServer\Datasets\Application:
Name
Type
Data
ExtranetServerName
REG_SZ
Server name; for example,
example.com.
ExtranetServerProtocol
REG_SZ

ExtranetServerPort
REG_SZ
Extranet port number.
7. On the computer running Windows SharePoint Services, edit the web.config file
in the
home directory of the Web site on which Windows SharePoint Services is installed
(C:\Inetpub\WWWRoot if Windows SharePoint Services is extended on the Default
Web Site) by doing the following:
a. Open Web.Config in Notepad.
b. Search for the Section called <appSettings>. It might or might not exist.
c. If it does not exist, search for </Sharepoint>. The next section is <system.w
eb>
d. Just after </Sharepoint>, and just before <system.web>, add the following lin
es:
<appSettings>
<add key="PWANetwork" value="EXTRANET" />
</appSettings>
e. Save web.config.
f. Reset Internet Information Services.
8. In Project Web Access:

a. Click the Admin tab.
b. In the left pane, click Server configuration.
c. In the Server extranet address box, type the Internet address for the compute
r
running Project Server 2003 that you deployed outside the firewall.
d. Click Save Changes.
9. Deploy Terminal Server for use with Project Professional, if needed.
Configuring a Non-Trusted Domain Deployment

When you are working in a non-trusted domain or a workgroup or Novell environmen
t,
you need to enable Anonymous Access to the Project Server virtual directory and
to
msadcs.dll in the MSADC virtual directory.
Additionally, if you are using Windows authentication in your deployment, you ne
ed to do
the following:
Create identical local Windows accounts that have identical passwords on the
computer running Project Server 2003 and on the computer running Project
Professional or Project Web Access. The Project Professional or Project Web Acce
ss
user will use this account to log on to the client workstation.
For example, if the user Peter J. Krebs wants to use Project Web Access on a
computer named client01 to access Project Server 2003 on a computer called serve
r01,
create the account client01\PJKrebs on the computer client01 and the account
server01\PJKrebs on the computer server01. Give both accounts the same password.
The user Peter J. Krebs can then use the PJKrebs account to log on to the comput
er
client01 and can use Project Web Access to access Project Server 2003 on the
computer server01.
If you are using Windows SharePoint Services, create identical local Windows acc
ounts
that have identical passwords for the Windows SharePoint Services administrator
on
the computer running Project Server 2003 and on the computer running Windows
If you are using Analysis Services, create identical local Windows accounts that
have
identical passwords for the Analysis Services administrator on the computer runn
ing
Project Server 2003 and on the computer running Analysis Services.
Note In a Novell environment, Project Server 2003 does not support the synchroni
zation of users
with the Novell Directory Service (NDS). Project Server 2003 can only synchroniz
e users with Active
Directory® directory service.
.. To create a local user account
1. On the computer on which you want to create the account, open Computer
Management.
2. Expand Local Users and Groups.
3. Right-click Users and click New User.
4. In the User name box, type a name for the user.
5. In the Description box, type a description for the user account.
6. In the Password and Confirm password boxes, type the user's password.

System Optimization
This chapter describes how to optimize system performance for your Microsoft® Offi
ce
Project Server 2003 deployment by modifying your database configuration. You can
do this
in two ways:
By using the database optimization scripts to move your database and log file to
a
random array of independent disks (RAID) for increased input and output (I/O)
performance and availability.
By partitioning the database onto multiple computers running Microsoft SQL Serve
r
to provide better network performance for the database.
Your organization should make the decision to optimize Project Server 2003 caref
ully
because the benefits are specific to certain types of configuration and deployme
nt
scenarios. In general, only a small percentage of overall Project Server 2003 cu
stomers
should use either of these approaches.
Database Optimization Scripts

Microsoft SQL Server 2000 provides for database performance optimization by mean
s of
data and log file placement at a detailed level. The data centers at most medium
and large
organizations apply a standard data and log file definition and placement that a
re different
from the default data and log file placement for SQL Server. For example, it is
common to
locate data files on a four-disk RAID10 array and log files on a two-disk mirror
ed RAID1
drive that are separate from the drive on which the operating system is installe
d. In most
cases, this configuration provides significant I/O improvement over the default
data and
log file placement for SQL Server.
Many data centers isolate data from indexes, optimizing I/O even further. Micros
oft Office
Project Server 2003 provides Transact-SQL scripts that enable a database adminis
trator to
optimize the physical database layout as usage rates and data sizes grow after t
he initial
deployment. These scripts can be found in the file DDBSPS.SQL on the Project
Server 2003 CD.
Master Stored Procedures
Project Server 2003 provides four master stored procedures (each of which calls
component utility stored procedures) to enable database administrators to more e
asily
optimize Project Server database performance by changing the physical layout of
the
database.
MSP_UTIL_EXEC_MOVE_DATABASE_OBJECTS
This master stored procedure can be used to move all of the database objects fro
m the
default SQL Server file group to a new file group. This is the most basic optimi
zation of
the four scripts, which moves the database objects created in the SQL Server def
ault file
group to a new file group. The new file group must be created in advance. You ca
n create
the new file group by using the MSP_UTIL_ADD_FILEGROUP_AND_DATAFILES
stored procedure provided in this script file.
This master stored procedure calls the following component utility stored proced
ures:
MSP_UTIL_ADD_CLUSTERED_IDENTITY_TO_BLOBS
MSP_UTIL_MOVE_CLUSTERED_INDEXES
MSP_UTIL_MOVE_NONCLUSTERED_INDEXES
MSP_UTIL_DROP_TEMP_CLUSTERED_IDENTITY
MSP_UTIL_EXEC_MOVE_DATABASE_FILES
This stored procedure moves the default (or current) data file and log file to a
new location
(for example, it can move .mdf and .ldf files from drive C to drives D and E, re
spectively).
The new data and log files do not need to be created ahead of time. If the datab
ase has
more than one data or log file, the stored procedure can be edited accordingly.
This stored procedure is self-contained and calls no component utility stored pr
ocedures.
MSP_UTIL_EXEC_MOVE_TABLES_TO_FILEGROUP
This stored procedure moves tables from the default (or current) file group to a
new file
group. You must create the file group ahead of time. You can choose to move all
tables in
the database, or you can move tables of a particular type. The types of tables i
nclude:
MSP_PROJ_n (Microsoft Office Project tables)
MSP_PROJ_WEB_n (Microsoft Office Project Web Access online transaction
tables)
MSP_VIEW_n (Project Web Access View tables)
MSP_CUBE_n (Microsoft Office Project Server OLAP staging tables)
The new file group must be created ahead of time. You can create the new file gr
oup by
using the stored procedure MSP_UTIL_ADD_FILEGROUP_AND_DATAFILES
provided in the script file. If you want to move an explicit list of tables, the
associated
component utility stored procedures must be updated. The master stored procedure
calls
the following component utility stored procedures:
MSP_UTIL_ADD_CLUSTERED_IDENTITY_TO_BLOBS
MSP_UTIL_MOVE_CLUSTERED_INDEXES
MSP_UTIL_DROP_TEMP_CLUSTERED_IDENTITY
MSP_UTIL_EXEC_MOVE_INDEXES_TO_FILEGROUP
This stored procedure moves non-clustered indexes from the default (or current)
file group
to a new file group. The file group must be created ahead of time. You can move
all non-
clustered indexes in the database, or indexes of a particular type. The types in
clude:
MSP_PROJ_n (Microsoft Office Project tables)
MSP_PROJ_WEB_n (Project Web Access online transaction tables)
MSP_VIEW_n (Project Web Access View tables)
MSP_CUBE_n (Microsoft Office Project Server OLAP staging tables)
You can create the new file group by using the

MSP_UTIL_ADD_FILEGROUP_AND_DATAFILES stored procedure provided in
this script file. If you want to move an explicit list of indexes, the associate
d component
utility stored procedures must be updated. This stored procedure calls the follo
wing
component utility stored procedures:
MSP_UTIL_MOVE_NONCLUSTERED_INDEXES
Component Utility Stored Procedures

The following component utility stored procedures are called by the master store
d
procedures:
MSP_UTIL_ADD_FILEGROUP_AND_DATAFILES is not called by any of the
master stored procedures, but can be used to create file groups for those master
stored
procedures that require that a new file group be created ahead of time.
MSP_UTIL_CREATE_CLUSTERED_IDENTITY ensures that a specified table
has an identify column (or creates a temporary one if necessary) and creates a c
lustered
index on that identity column.
MSP_UTIL_ADD_CLUSTERED_IDENTITY_TO_BLOBS locates all (or
specific category) blobs (tables without a clustered index) and calls
MSP_UTIL_CREATE_CLUSTERED_IDENTITY to add a temporary identity
column (if necessary) and clustered index.
MSP_UTIL_DROP_TEMP_CLUSTERED_IDENTITY drops the temporary
identity column and its clustered index on all tables previously created by usin
g
MSP_UTIL_ADD_CLUSTERED_IDENTITY_TO_BLOBS.
MSP_UTIL_MOVE_CLUSTERED_INDEXES moves all tables (or specified
category) that have clustered indexes to the specified file group.
MSP_UTIL_MOVE_NONCLUSTERED_INDEXES moves all non-clustered
indexes (or specified category) that have clustered indexes to the specified fil
e group.
MSP_UTIL_REBUILD_INDEX rebuilds a specified index on a table.
Database Partitioning
As the number of users who access the computer running Project Server 2003 incre
ases,
performance can degrade. During the Project Server Setup process, you can choose
to use
a different instance of SQL Server for the View tables than you use for the rest
of the
database. You can also manually partition databases after installation to create
two- and
three-way partitions. When the database is partitioned, additional SQL views are
created in
each database to enable access to the tables that are located in the other serve
rs. Separate
registry keys are created that include the connection information for each serve
r.
Database partitioning for Project Server 2003 improves the performance of open,
save, and
publish operations. It is important to note, however, that a partitioned databas
e
configuration is beneficial for only a small percentage of Project Server deploy
ments, and
can negatively impact some aspects of the performance of a Project Server deploy
ment..
Before using database partitioning, explore ways to improve the performance of S
QL
Server 2000. Most organizations can find ways to improve the performance of thei
r system
without partitioning the database.
Before applying a partitioned database configuration to your Project Server depl
oyment,
consider the following:
Partitioning the database does not improve the overall performance of the Projec
t
Server database. A partitioned database configuration is beneficial for the foll
owing
types of Project Server deployments:
Deployments that include several thousand Project Web Access users and with a
high ratio of project managers to team members (Project Web Access users).
Deployments for which projects require frequent updates, and the average project
contains a large number of tasks and assignments.
Deployments in which the open, save, and publish operations are used at a high
frequency throughout the day.
A partitioned database configuration includes the following possible disadvantag
es:
Increased administrative overhead required for the maintenance of the computer
running Project Server 2003, including a proportional increase of backup and
restore procedures and a greater number of servers that need to be maintained in
a
failover scenario.
Increased sensitivity to server downtime; organizations are required to maintain
more servers for a single installation of Project Server 2003.
Slower performance of certain types of Project Web Access views, including the
Resource Center (potentially a significant decrease in performance), Timesheets,
and the Project Center. These views require the retrieval of large amounts of da
ta
across all partitioned databases. Do not partition the Project Server database i
f
your organization must use the Resource Center frequently; for example, if your
organization includes several thousand users and is planning to use the Timeshee
ts
feature in Project Web Access to track and record actual work against project
tasks.
Preparing to Partition the Database

To partition the database, you must run the partition scripts with a SQL Server
login that is
a member of the Systems Administrator role on each instance of SQL Server in you
r
deployment. When you create this account, it will require the same password on e
ach
server. It is recommended that you delete these logins when you are finish parti
tioning the
database. It is also possible to use the SQL Server sa account, as long as the p
assword is the
same on each server. The sa account cannot be deleted.
Important
SQL Server uses the Microsoft Distributed Transaction Coordinator (MSDTC) automa
tically with
Project Server database partitioning. Be sure MSDTC is installed on each compute
r running SQL
Server in your deployment. If you are also running SQL Server in a cluster, some
database
transactions will fail unless you use ComClust.exe to configure the cluster. Usi
ng this tool routes all
MSDTC requests to the computer in the cluster that is running MSDTC for the clus
ter. For
information about using ComClust.exe to configure the cluster, see the Microsoft
Web site
(http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=19684). If MSDTC is not installed on you
r computer, you
can install it from the SQL Server 2000 CD.
By default, the network access settings of MSDTC are disabled on new installatio
ns of SQL
Server 2000 on computers running Microsoft Windows Server 2003. If you are partit
ioning on a
computer running Windows Server 2003, follow the procedure in Microsoft Knowledg
e Base article
329332 (http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=19685) to be sure that your MSDTC
settings are
correct. After you complete the procedure, restart your computer.
Migrating Existing Deployments
Use the procedures in this topic to set up database partitioning after you insta
ll Project
Server 2003.
The files required for the procedures in this topic can be found on the Project
Server 2003
CD in the Support/Database folder. It is recommended that you copy this folder t
o each
of the database computers in your deployment.
Important An updated version of the file Migrate.sql is available. Download the
latest copy of the
Migrate.sql file from the Microsoft Web site (http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?Li
nkId=22648). Use
the updated version of Migrate.sql instead of the version in the Support/Databas
e folder on the
Project Server 2003 CD.
You can partition your database in one of the following ways:
By partitioning the View tables.
By partitioning the Project tables.
By using three-way partitioning to move both the Project tables and the View tab
les to
separate database servers.
By migrating from View tables partition to a three-way partition, if you have al
ready
partitioned the View tables and you want to move to a three-way partition.
By migrating from a Project tables partition to three-way partition, if you have
already
partitioned the Project tables and you want to move to a three-way partition.
Important These procedures should only be used by someone who is familiar with S
QL
Server 2000 and experienced with database creation, security, and editing and ex
ecuting scripts
across a multi-server environment. All steps in these procedures must be perform
ed in the order
listed. Always create full database backups before attempting any database parti
tioning.
Partitioning the View Tables
If your deployment is configured with all the Project Server database tables in
one
database, you can move the Project Server View tables to a separate database ser
ver. The
databases are configured as follows:
Main database server Contains the Web tables, Cube tables, Project tables, and
Security views.
View database server Contains the View tables.

Load Balancing the Project Server Views Notification Service

If users in your organization submit a high volume of requests to publish projec
ts and
enterprise resources to the Microsoft® Office Project Server 2003 database, and yo
u have
offloaded the Project Server Views Notification Service to a dedicated server, l
oad
balancing the Project Server Views Notification Service can significantly improv
e the
performance of your publishing process. Project Server 2003 Service Pack 1 (SP1)
supports
the load balancing of the Project Server Views Notification Service.
Note You must be running Project Server 2003 SP1 on all computers in your deploy
ment before
you can take advantage of these performance improvements.
Load balancing the Project Server Views Notification Service improves the perfor
mance of
the publishing process for projects and resources. To test the performance resul
ts, 1146
projects were published to the computer running Project Server 2003 and 550 reso
urces
were created and shared among the 1146 projects. The average project included 40
assignments.

500
projects took 3517 seconds total, but when the load is split across two servers,
the average
time to publish was 1758 seconds and the average savings was 1830 seconds. With
three
services running, publishing 500 projects took 4194 seconds, but when the load i
s split
across three servers, the average time to publish was 1398 seconds and the avera
ge savings
was 2141 seconds.
Note While up to 1000 servers can be configured to support a load-balanced Proje
ct Server Views
Notification Service, performance testing indicates a rate of diminishing return
on real performance
improvement.
Configuring the Computers Running the Project Server Views
Notification Service
Load-balancing the Project Server Views Notification Service involves the follow
ing steps:
Using Project Server Setup to install the components required for load balancing
the
Project Server Views Notification Service on the additional servers.
Completing a few manual steps on the new servers (including disabling the Projec
t
Server Scheduled Process Service).
Updating the registry on the front-end application server or servers so that it
is aware
of the new load-balanced configuration for the Project Server Views Notification
Service. Only the front-end application server needs to be aware of the load-bal
anced
configuration.
If you are running Analysis Services, you must also do the following on any serv
er running
the offloaded Project Server Views Notification Service:
Create the same OLAP administrator account that is used on other servers in your
deployment.
Install Decision Support Objects (DSOs).
Apply SQL Server 2000 Service Pack 3 (SP3).
Disable the Project Server Scheduled Process Service on all but one of the serve
rs
running the offloaded Project Server Views Notification Service. If you do not d
o this,
OLAP cube generation might fail and resource tables will not be updated.
.. To deploy additional servers running the Project Server Views Notification Se

rvice
1. Install Project Server 2003 SP1 on all computers in your Project Server deplo
yment.
2. On a new computer, using the same user accounts that are associated with any
other
server running the Project Server Views Notification Service or Analysis Service
s in
your deployment, run Project Server Setup and install the Project Server Views
Notification Service (select the View Processing option from the Choose the
services you want to install on this server page).
Note Do not select the Project Server front-end and Session Manager options on t

6. Stop and then disable the Project Server Scheduled Process Service on any add
itional
server after the first. You only need to run the Project Server Scheduled Proces
s
Service on a single server in your deployment.
Configuring the Front-End Application Server to Support Load-

Balancing of the Project Server Views Notification Service
To complete the process of offloading the Project Server Views Notification Serv
ice, you
must edit the registry on the front-end application server or servers in your Pr
oject Server
deployment.
Note You must complete this procedure for all front-end application servers in y
our Project Server
deployment.
.. To configure the front-end application server

1. On the front-end application server in your Project Server deployment, naviga
te to the
following registry setting:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Office\11.0\MS
Project\WebClient Server\ProjectServer\Datasets\ViewsFileDrop
2. Rename the ForwardUNC registry key to ForwardUNC000.

3. For each server running the Project Server Views Notification Service, add a
sequential
registry entry, for example ForwardUNC001, ForwardUNC002, ForwardUNC003, and
so on, with the value being the directory path for the ViewDrop location on the
server
running the Project Server Views Notification Service. If you skip a number in t
he
sequential order, it will be ignored and the Project Server front-end applicatio
n server
will return to the ForwaredUNC000 entry. Additionally, each registry entry can o
nly
represent a unique server running the Project Server Views Notification Service.
For example, in a configuration that supports four servers running the Project S
erver
Views Notification Service, the registry format is the following:
ForwardUNC000 = \\serverName000\viewdrop

International Deployment
Considerations
Microsoft® Office Project Server 2003 supports the use of multiple languages by pr
oviding
a language plug-in called Multilingual User Interface (MUI) Pack. To add languag
e support
after you install Project Server 2003, you can install the MUI Pack for the lang
uage that you
want to add. Although Project Server must be installed with a primary language (
for
example, English or Japanese), the MUI Pack enables users of Microsoft Office Pr
oject
Web Access to interact with Project Server 2003 in any of eighteen different lan
guages. The
same number of languages is also available to users of Microsoft Office Project
Professional 2003.
Project Server 2003 provides support for the deployment of an international Micr
osoft
Enterprise Project Management Solution in the following ways:
The Project Server MUI Pack enables you to install, deploy, and use Project
Server 2003 in a mixed-language environment that can be tailored to the language
requirements of individual users or entire organizations. The MUI Pack enables u
sers
to use Project Server 2003 in their native language.
Project Server 2003 and Project Web Access support Unicode, as well as code page
based information. This makes it easier to display information in a user's nativ
e
language when the user is using Project Web Access to work with project data. Pr
oject
Professional does not use Unicode, which can create some configuration limitatio
ns
for organizations that include users that do not speak the same language.
Microsoft Windows® SharePoint® Services is available in the same set of languages
that Project Server 2003 supports. Windows SharePoint Services sites can be crea
ted in
any language that Project Server 2003 supports.
Numbers, dates, and times are based on a user's regional settings, as determined
by the
user's computer and Project Professional.
Input Method Editor (IME) is a software tool that converts keystrokes to charact
ers in
a language where characters represent words or syllables. Project Server 2003 su
pports
IMEs for Japanese, Korean, Simplified Chinese, and Traditional Chinese for use i
n
Project Web Access.
Project Web Access supports surrogate pairs if Microsoft Windows XP Professional
is
the operating system used by the client machine. If Microsoft Windows 2000 is th
e
operating system that the client machine uses, users might experience issues wit
h the
display of surrogate extension-B characters.
Planning an International Deployment

With some planning, your organization can install, customize, and maintain a sin
gle
deployment of Project Server 2003 in a multi-language environment. Plug-in langu
age
features enable users in foreign locales to continue working in their own langua
ges.
Alternatively, you can deploy a localized version of Project Server 2003 for eac
h language-
speaking area. You might install a Project Server MUI Pack instead of a unique,
localized
version of Project Server 2003 in the following scenarios:
When simulating a localized version of Project Server 2003 for a small group of
users
who do not actually need a localized version of Project Server 2003.
To make different language options available on the same computer for users who
need to change languages while using Project Server 2003.
Before installing Project Server 2003, determine which languages users in your o
rganization
need to use, and then determine which primary language makes the most sense for
your
deployment. For example, the Latin code page is a subset of the Japanese code pa
ge. If
your organization has users in Japan, England, and France, using Japanese as the
primary
language will enable all users to interact with Project Server 2003 in their own
languages,
with the exception of some French characters that are not supported by the Japan
ese code
page. Some combinations of languages are not possible; for example, Korean and J
apanese
cannot be on the same server because one of the code pages is not a subset of th
e other.
Data stored in the Project Server database and the interaction between Project S
erver 2003,
Microsoft SQL Server 2000, Project Web Access, and Project Professional are based
on
your choice of a primary language and the code pages that are associated with th
em. The
code pages for Project Server 2003, SQL Server 2000, and Project Professional mu
st match
in order for users of Project Professional to connect to the Project Server data
base.
Installing Project Server Multilingual User Interface Packs
After you install Project Server 2003 (which sets your primary language), determ
ine the
additional languages that your organization needs to make available to its users
. Apply these
languages to Project Server 2003 by installing the appropriate MUI Pack. The MUI
Packs
for Project Server 2003 are available from the Microsoft Download Center
(http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkID=20897). Twenty-two languages are availab
le. The MUI
Pack for Microsoft Office Project Professional 2003 is available through Microso
ft
licensing programs. Some users will need to install the language upgrades for Mi
crosoft
Internet Explorer in order to take advantage of the full multilingual capabiliti
es of Project
Web Access.
If Project Server 2003 has more than one MUI Pack installed, users can choose th
e
language for their notification and reminder e-mails. This option is available i
n the
Subscribe to Notifications and Reminders page on the Project Web Access home pag
e.
Note The data in an e-mail message remains in the language in which the message
was originally
created.
The Project Server MUI Pack Setup program installs features that allow you to ch
ange the
language of the following:
The user interface
Help
User interface fonts (Asian languages and Hebrew)
Project Web Access detects a user's Internet Explorer language setting. If the l
anguage
pack for that language is installed on Project Server 2003, Project Web Access d
isplays the
user interface in that language. If you install a localized version of Project S
erver 2003, the
default language setting for Project Web Access is the same language. All locali
zed versions
of Project Server 2003 contain an English version as well, so that you can chang
e the
language settings to English. For example, if you want to view Project Web Acces
s in
Korean, and the Korean MUI Pack is installed on Project Server 2003, you can vie
w the
Project Web Access user interface in Korean. If Korean is unavailable, Project W
eb Access
displays the user interface in the Project Server installation language or in En
glish.
Note If you want to input Asian language or Hebrew text into most areas of Proje
ct Web Access,
including status reports, the timesheet, notifications and reminders, and so on,
you can use the
Input Method Editor.
MUI Packs for Project Server 2003 can only be installed on a computer on which P
roject
Server 2003 is already installed. MUI Packs are available for the following lang
uages:
Brazilian Portuguese (PSMUIPTB.exe)
Chinese (Simplified) (PSMUICHS.exe)
Chinese (Traditional) (PSMUITCH.exe)
Czech (PSMUICSY.exe)
Danish (PSMUIDAN.exe)
Dutch (PSMUINLD.exe)
Finnish (PSMUIFIN.exe)
French (PSMUIFRA.exe)
German (PSMUIGER.exe)
Greek (PSMUIELL.exe)
Hebrew (PSMUIHEB.exe)
Hungarian (PSMUIHUN.exe)
Italian (PSMUIITA.exe)
Japanese (PSMUIJPN.exe)
Korean (PSMUIKOR.exe)
Norwegian (PSMUINOR.exe)
Polish (PSMUIPLK.exe)
Portuguese (PSMUIPTG.exe)
Russian (PSMUIRUS.exe)
Spanish (PSMUISPA.exe)
Swedish (PSMUISWE.exe)
Turkish (PSMUITRK.exe)
Project Server Installation Language

The installation language setting in the registry determines which language will
be the
primary language when Project Server 2003 is installed. This language setting is
the locale
ID (LCID) assigned to the value entry InstallLanguage, which Project Server Setu
p creates
in the following registry key:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Office\11.0\MS
Project\WebClient Server\Languages
The DefLCID name/value pair indicates the default language for Project Web Acces
s. The
default language is used whenever Internet Explorer is not set to a specific lan
guage. Any
installed languages will have an LCIDnnnn entry in the registry, where nnnn is t
he four-
digit language code (for example, 1033 for English or 1031 for German).
Note Users can only collaborate on documents and issues that are stored on a Win
dows
SharePoint Services site in the primary installation language for Project Server
2003, unless the
appropriate language packs for Windows SharePoint Services are applied.
Project Server Code Page Limitations
A code page (or character set) defines the numeric representation of characters
for a given
set of languages. For example, the Western European languages use a common code
page
(1252) and Central European languages (such as Czech and Polish) use a different
common
code page (1250), while Japanese has its own code page (932). To use different l
anguage
versions of Project Professional with Project Server 2003, you must ensure that
the code
page within the SQL Server 2000 collation, the code page of the computer running
Project
Server 2003, and the code pages of all computers running Project Professional ar
e identical.
If the Project Server database is partitioned, the collation of all partitions m
ust be identical.
Note Project Professional reads and writes data to the Project Server database b
y using open
database connectivity (ODBC), and uses American National Standards Institute (AN
SI) characters
when sending and receiving data. If the code page of Project Professional does n
ot match the code
page of Project Server 2003, the connection will fail when users attempt to conn
ect Project
Professional to Project Server 2003. Project Professional is not allowed to conn
ect to Project
Server 2003 when the code pages do not match because characters will be translat
ed incorrectly
or, if unrecognized, will be converted to the "?" character.
Using Windows SharePoint Services in an International
Deployment
Windows SharePoint Services must be installed in the same installation language
in which
Project Server 2003 is installed in order for users to experience Documents, Iss
ues, Risks,
and Windows SharePoint Services administrative tasks in the same language that P
roject
Server 2003 uses. You can make additional languages available for Windows ShareP
oint
Services by applying language packs. Both Project Server MUI Packs and Windows
SharePoint Services language packs must be applied for the same language to add
support
for that language.
Because Windows SharePoint Services is installed as a separate application and c
onnected
to Project Web Access, the user interface is restricted to a single language for
each
Windows SharePoint Services site. Even if a user changes languages in Project We
b Access,
each site remains in the language in which the site was originally created.
You can only create Windows SharePoint Services sites in the languages that are
installed
with Project Server 2003. You can manage the language settings for new sites fro
m the Site
template language drop-down list that is available on the Windows SharePoint Ser
vices
team Web site provisioning settings page in Project Web Access.
Note Windows SharePoint Services supports Unicode, so the actual data in the fil
es stored within
the Documents and Issues areas can be in multiple languages.
Ensuring that Windows SharePoint Services URLs Are in Unicode
If your Web server uses the same code page that a client computer uses, you can
use
double-byte characters in names, as long as you set up the Web server running Wi
ndows
SharePoint Services to send uniform resource locators (URLs) in Unicode. Ensurin
g that
Windows SharePoint Services sends and receives URLs in Unicode involves the foll
owing
two steps:
Ensuring that URLs are always sent as UTF-8.
Configuring the server running Windows SharePoint Services to receive requests f
or
URLs in Unicode.
.. To ensure that URLs are always sent as UTF-8

1. Start Internet Explorer.
2. On the Tools menu, click Internet Options.
3. On the Advanced tab, click Browsing.
4. Ensure the Always send URLs as UTF-8 check box is selected.
5. Click OK.
.. To configure the server running Windows SharePoint Services to be able to rec

eive requests
for URLs in Unicode
1. Browse to the following registry folder:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\InetInfo\
Parameters
2. Set the following entries:

Type = REG_DWORD
Name = FavorDBCS
FavorDBCS = 0
Data = 0
Using Input Method Editor

Input Method Editor (IME) is a software tool that converts keystrokes to charact
ers in a
language where characters represent words or syllables. Project Server 2003 supp
orts IMEs
for Japanese, Korean, Simplified Chinese, and Traditional Chinese for use in Pro
ject Web
Access.
Choosing an Operating System for Project Web Access Users
Users run Project Web Access on client computers that are using Microsoft Intern
et
Explorer 5.5 or later. Project Web Access provides the best multilingual support
if the
operating system of the computer on which it is installed supports the internati
onal
features of Project Server 2003. Microsoft Windows 98, Microsoft Windows Me, and
Microsoft Windows NT® 4.0 provide adequate support for most international language
s
that are available for Project Web Access. If your organization requires support
for Asian
or right-to-left languages, Microsoft Windows 2000, Microsoft Windows XP Profess
ional,
or Microsoft Windows Server 2003 provide the best level of support for displaying
project data in Project Web Access.
Note Windows XP Home edition is not supported for use as a client operating syst
em.
Viewing Project Web Access in Other Languages
Project Server 2003 supports the use of multiple languages as long as the approp
riate MUI
Pack is installed on the computer running Project Server 2003 and the language i
s made
available in Internet Explorer on the client computer. Users of Project Web Acce
ss can
then change the language that is displayed in the user interface from the primar
y language
for Project Server 2003 and any language that is added by means of an MUI Pack.
Language support for Project Server 2003 is automatic upon installation of the M
UI Pack.
Language support in Internet Explorer must be configured manually.
.. To configure support for a language in Internet Explorer
1. Start Internet Explorer.
2. On the Tools menu, click Internet Options.
3. On the General tab, click Languages.
4. In the Language Preference dialog box, click Add to open the Add Languages
dialog box.
5. In the Add Languages dialog box, choose the language for which you want to ad
d
support.
6. Click OK to close the Add Languages dialog box, click OK to close the Languag
e
Preferences dialog box, and then click OK to close the Internet Options dialog b
ox.
7. Restart Internet Explorer.

Project Server Service Accounts
A number of service accounts are required in order for Microsoft® Office Project
Server 2003 components to access one another. This appendix includes summary
information about the required accounts, their purpose, their characteristics, a
nd how and
when they are used.
Analysis Services Account
The Analysis Services account is a Microsoft Windows® account that enables the
computer running Project Server 2003 to access Microsoft SQL Server 2000 Analysis
Services. The Analysis Services account has the following characteristics:
It is either a domain or local user account.
It must be added to the online analytical processing (OLAP) Administrators group
on
the computers on which the account is located.
It is located on the computer or computers on which SQL Server 2000 Analysis
Services or the Decision Support Objects (DSO) are located.
Note You do not need this account if you are not using Analysis Services with Pr
oject

If you are using a local user account for the Analysis Services account, you mus
t create
identical accounts and passwords on the computer running Analysis Services, the
computer
running the Project Server Front-End service, and the computer running the Proje
ct Server
View Processing service. If Analysis Services is not installed on the same compu
ter on
which Project Server 2003 is installed, you must also add the Analysis Services
account to
the OLAP Administrators user group on the computers on which the Project Server
Front-
End service and the View Processing service are located.
Note The Decision Support Objects (DSO) must be installed on the computers on wh
ich the Project
Server Front-End service and the View Processing service are running. If they ar
e not installed on
these computers, the OLAP Administrators group will not appear in Computer Manag
ement.
If during Project Server Setup you selected to add the Analysis Services informa
tion later,
you must update the account by using the Project Server COM+ Settings tool
(PSCOMPlus.exe).

C
Project Server Installation Tools
This appendix describes tools that are available to the Microsoft® Office Project
Server 2003 administrator. These tools can be used during initial deployment and
for day-
to-day operations following deployment.
Connection Information Tool
Microsoft Office Project Server 2003 stores information in the registry about th
e location
of the Project Server database and which accounts are associated with Project Se
rver roles.
If you change your configuration by moving all or part of the database to a new
computer,
you must update the information in the registry. Also, if you change which users
are
members of the MSProjectRole or MSProjectServerRole roles, you must update this
information in the registry. Use the Connection Information tool (ConnInfo.exe)
to update
this information.
.. To use ConnInfo.exe for a single database
1. Start ConnInfo.exe. You can find this tool in the BIN\1033 folder of your Pro
ject
Server installation, or you can download it from the Microsoft Download Center
2. Select the Single database configuration option.
3. In the SQL Server box, type the name of the instance of Microsoft SQL Server
2000 on which the Project Server database is located.

9. Repeat steps 4 through 8 for each database that you want to configure.
EditSite Tool
You can use the EditSite tool (EditSite.exe) to create a Project Server hosted d
eployment
and to edit the properties for existing hosted sites. A hosted deployment is a l
arge
installation of Project Server 2003 that hosts Project Server site collections f
or departments
or divisions within the organization. The host can also be an application servic
e provider
that hosts Project Server site collections for other companies, similar to the w
ay that an
Internet service provider hosts Web sites.
In a Project Server hosted deployment, a single installation of Project Server 2
003 hosts
multiple instances of Project Web Access, each with its own SQL Server database.
Typically, in a hosted deployment, multiple Project Server sites share a single
Microsoft
Windows® SharePoint® Services content database.
When you install Project Server 2003, only one site is available (called Project
Server),
accessible by means of the URL http://computername/projectserver. When you use
EditSite.exe to add a Project Server site, a new URL (http://computername/sitena
me) is
available from which you can access a new instance of Project Web Access.
.. To install the Edit Site tool
1. Download and run the file EditSite.exe from the Microsoft Download Center:
http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=20891.
2. Double-click the Setup file to complete the installation.
EditSite.exe is located in a folder called EditSite that is created in the direc

tory in which
you installed the tool.

Windows SharePoint Services Site Migration Tool
When Project Server 2003 is used with Windows SharePoint Services, a site collec
tion is
created on Windows SharePoint Services, and a subsite is created for every proje
ct that is
published to the server.
The Windows SharePoint Services Site Migration tool (WSSMigr.exe) is a command-l
ine
tool that enables you to easily back up a selection of subsites or restore these
subsites from
a previous backup. It can back up and restore a single subsite or a range of sub
sites that
you specify.
Based on Project IDs that you specify, WSSMigr.exe reads the subsite names from
the
Project Server database for the Windows SharePoint Services subsites to be backe
d up, and
then calls the Windows SharePoint Services Site backup and restore tool (STSAdm.
exe) to
perform the backup operation.
You can use WSSMigr.exe for the following two scenarios:
A hosted deployment migration
A single project restore
Hosted Deployment Migration

A hosted deployment is a large installation of Project Server 2003 that hosts Pr
oject Server
site collections for departments or divisions within the organization. The host
can also be
an application service provider that hosts Project Server site collections for o
ther
companies, similar to the way that an Internet service provider hosts Web sites.
In a typical hosted Project Server deployment, a single Windows SharePoint Servi

ces
content database is shared between multiple instances of Project Server 2003. Yo
u can use
WSSMigr.exe to migrate the Windows SharePoint Services site collection that is a
ssociated
with a single Project Server instance into or out of a hosted deployment.
When migrating in or out of a hosted deployment, run WSSMigr.exe without the -i
parameter to back up all the Windows SharePoint Services subsites in the site co
llection
that are associated with an instance of Project Server 2003.
Single Project Restore
You can use WSSMigr.exe in conjunction with the Restore Single Project tool
(RestoreP.exe) to restore a single project to an earlier point in time. To do th
is, run
WSSMigr.exe with the -i parameter and specify the ID of the project that you wan
t to
restore. You must be following the database backup techniques described in the M
icrosoft
Office Project Server 2003 Disaster Recovery Guide (http://go.microsoft.com/fwli
nk/?LinkID=20234) in
order to successfully synchronize your Project Server data with your Windows Sha
rePoint
Services data for the project that you want to restore.
Note For more information about restoring a single project, see the topic Restor
e a Single Project
in Appendix C, Project Server Recovery Tools of the Microsoft Office Project Ser
ver 2003 Disaster
Recovery Guide (http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkID=20234).
Running the Tool
WSSMigr.exe is a command-line tool that calls the Windows SharePoint Services
STSAdm.exe tool to perform the actual backup operation.
Important WSSMigr.exe overwrites existing backup files when backing up and overw
rites existing
subsites when restoring.
.. To install WSSMigr.exe
Download and run the file WSSMigr.exe from the Microsoft Download Center:
http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=20895.
When you use WSSMigr.exe to back up subsites, the tool:

1. Queries the Project Server database for the URL for each subsite that you spe
cified.
2. Creates a filename based on the subsite name (for example, projectserver_101.
bak) for
each subsite.
3. Runs STSAdm.exe by using the following syntax:
Stsadm.exe -o backup -url [subsiteURL] -file [-f parameter +
filename] -overwrite
When you use WSSMigr.exe to restore subsites, the tool runs STSAdm.exe for each
subsite
in the backup by using the following syntax:
Stsadm.exe -o restore -url [subsiteURL] -file [-f parameter +
filename] overwrite
Note You must be a Windows SharePoint Services administrator to run WSSMigr.exe.
.. To back up Windows SharePoint Services subsites

Run WSSMigr.exe -bo on the computer running Windows SharePoint Services for the
subsites that you want to back up.
For example:
WSSMigr.exe bo -f c:\wssmigr\temp
-dbserver SQLServer
-dbname ProjectServer
-l c:\temp\psmlog.txt
To restore Windows SharePoint Services subsites

Copy the backup files to th
you want to restore them.
Run WSSMigr
WSSMigr.exe ro -w

Installing Multiple Copies of the Windows SharePoint Services

Data
The Project Server Sample database was designed to allow a single installation o
f Project
Server 2003 and Windows SharePoint Services data on a computer. If you want to u
se
more than one copy of the Project Server data, you can install additional copies
by running
the Sample Data Configuration Wizard. If you want to install more than one copy
of the
Windows SharePoint Services data, you will need to configure the new datasets ma
nually.
This topic describes the process for installing more than one copy of the Window
s
SharePoint Services sample data on a computer.
If you want to install more than one copy of the Windows SharePoint Services sam
ple data,
you must do so before making any changes to the data in your initial Project Ser
ver Sample
database deployment.
Caution Do not attempt to restore multiple copies of the Windows SharePoint Serv
ices sample
data by using the Sample Data Configuration Wizard without following the procedu
re in this topic.
Previous installations will be corrupted and become unusable.

Building the OLAP Cube
Project Web Access uses an online analytical processing (OLAP) cube for modeling
and
analyzing data. If you make major changes to the database, such as renaming a pr
oject or
significantly modifying assignments or views, you will need to rebuild the OLAP
cube to
ensure that Portfolio Analyzer views are updated accordingly.
Note If you install multiple instances of the Project Server Sample database and
do not specify
unique names for the OLAP cube, each instance of the Project Server Sample datab
ase will point to
the same OLAP cube. If you specify a new name for the OLAP cube, you will also n
eed to change the
Portfolio Analyzer view configuration to point to the new cube.
.. To build the OLAP cube
