  32. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
  33. &lt;span style=&quot;font-family: inherit;&quot;&gt;SharePoint/ProjectServer 2016
  34. Beta 2 version is available to explore now, and in this blog post I will walk
  35. through installation steps to help users follow and setup an on-premises
  36. SharePoint server 2016 farm.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
  37. &lt;span style=&quot;font-family: inherit;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;
  38. &lt;span style=&quot;font-family: inherit;&quot;&gt;Note that Project Server service application is now included within a same set of setup files. We don&#39;t have to install separate setup files for Project Server, you will find Project Server Service application to choose to configure as part of farm configuration step.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
  39. &lt;span style=&quot;font-family: inherit; text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;
  40. &lt;span style=&quot;font-family: inherit; text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;During the installation process,
  41. I will highlight any new/additional steps or installation screens specific to
  42. SharePoint 2016. Also note that this installation is carried using Beta 2
  43. version, that is 99% feature complete as Microsoft has quoted and must be very
  44. identical to the RTM version coming next year.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  45. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
  46. &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  47. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
  48. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  49. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;text-align: left;&quot;&gt;
  50. Hardware and Software
  51. requirement for SharPoint Server 2016 can be found here: &lt;a href=&quot;https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc262485(v=office.16).aspx&quot;&gt;https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc262485(v=office.16).aspx&lt;/a&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  52. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
  53. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  54. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
  55. For testing purposes, I am
  56. preparing a single server farm and I have a separate database server that is
  57. running SQL Server 2016 CTP 3.0.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  58. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
  59. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  60. &lt;br /&gt;
  61. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
  62. Exactly like SharePoint 2013,
  63. lets start with installation of prerequisites.&amp;nbsp;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  64. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
  65. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  66. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
  67. &lt;a href=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjG5uXEcHsl9enEADfszyZZuz2XUEfdv-ZlI2N18-ZoqrytvZMehODUtu9sw8tirBzI0X_x9eyOpVD9hLucK5mBXX9rRcTdzszVDSMsK7zMzuF3rRp1_YMWqDdwDXVnTgjkxOhCEOmLSqU/s1600/1.jpg&quot; imageanchor=&quot;1&quot;&gt;&lt;img border=&quot;0&quot; height=&quot;240&quot; src=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjG5uXEcHsl9enEADfszyZZuz2XUEfdv-ZlI2N18-ZoqrytvZMehODUtu9sw8tirBzI0X_x9eyOpVD9hLucK5mBXX9rRcTdzszVDSMsK7zMzuF3rRp1_YMWqDdwDXVnTgjkxOhCEOmLSqU/s320/1.jpg&quot; width=&quot;320&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  68. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
  69. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  70. &lt;h2&gt;
  71. &lt;b&gt;Pre-requisites&amp;nbsp;options:&lt;/b&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/h2&gt;
  72. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
  73. &lt;span style=&quot;font-family: inherit;&quot;&gt;SharePoint server expects certain pre-requisites to be
  74. installed prior to actual SharePoint installation. Below are our option to prepare
  75. SharePoint server with pre-requisites:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  76. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
  77. &lt;/div&gt;
  78. &lt;ol style=&quot;text-align: left;&quot;&gt;
  79. &lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;text-indent: -0.25in;&quot;&gt;Online installation, using
  80. Pre-requisite tool (recommended)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
  81. &lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;text-indent: -0.25in;&quot;&gt;Manual installation of
  82. pre-requisites by downloading required setups files.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
  83. &lt;/ol&gt;
  84. &lt;br /&gt;
  85. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
  86. For offline installation (option-2), you can download below
  87. required pre- requisites and install on server. Please always refer to this &lt;a href=&quot;https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc262485(v=office.16).aspx&quot;&gt;MSDN&lt;/a&gt;
  88. to check for any changes in pre-requisites and their respective download links:&lt;/div&gt;
  89. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
  90. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  91. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;

  374. &lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;calibri&amp;quot; , sans-serif; font-size: 11pt; line-height: 107%;&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi_8f_QMXQvLf26aUgmbaZ4nBTCeu331EhN4s7CS_YNMCoMSmljgPTls3xl39aBofNN-lEPHuaXT3KLl6PqfMVaUL4Dy4m0E9YHLUXgv6o5fui9bmoFUIScEOHd02G1eC6QQ8FT7aEu0BY/s1600/21.jpg&quot; imageanchor=&quot;1&quot;&gt;&lt;img border=&quot;0&quot; height=&quot;179&quot; src=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi_8f_QMXQvLf26aUgmbaZ4nBTCeu331EhN4s7CS_YNMCoMSmljgPTls3xl39aBofNN-lEPHuaXT3KLl6PqfMVaUL4Dy4m0E9YHLUXgv6o5fui9bmoFUIScEOHd02G1eC6QQ8FT7aEu0BY/s320/21.jpg&quot; width=&quot;320&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  375. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
  376. &lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;calibri&amp;quot; , sans-serif; font-size: 11pt; line-height: 107%;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  377. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
  378. &lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;calibri&amp;quot; , sans-serif; font-size: 11pt; line-height: 107%;&quot;&gt;16.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;text-indent: -0.25in;&quot;&gt;Another change to
  379. SharePoint 2016 deployment process is that Project Server is now part of same
  380. SharePoint installation as service application.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  381. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoListParagraphCxSpFirst&quot; style=&quot;mso-list: l0 level1 lfo1; text-indent: -.25in;&quot;&gt;
  382. &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  383. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoListParagraphCxSpMiddle&quot;&gt;
  384. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  385. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoListParagraphCxSpLast&quot;&gt;
  386. Project Server always was an application
  387. service in SharePoint, but previous versions requires separate set of setup
  388. files to be installed to enable Project Server application service in existing
  389. SharePoint farm.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

  415. This is to quickly share about 3 excellent new enhancements to Project Online rolled out today.&lt;br /&gt;
  416. &lt;br /&gt;
  417. 1. &lt;b&gt;Email Notification&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
  418. &lt;br /&gt;
  419. &lt;span style=&quot;background-color: white; color: #404040; line-height: 24px;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: inherit;&quot;&gt;Email notifications in Project Online keep you on top of what’s coming, let you know when things are due and what’s currently on your plate.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
  420. &lt;br /&gt;
  421. &lt;a href=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgpG25aGeiXSFduvmbz7pLXFlbuReTNSI6ZJT-YQ0rFreuvxXjuDv8vMlzGEoEa1KjWXSf9427KzDd0sa5NkoPENZNc6aYszDIHKVQu-sMgKkf1OzunwmYNdUkvHPGOH9yQc2hliCAL1rM/s1600/3-new-enhancements-to-Project-Online-1.png&quot; imageanchor=&quot;1&quot;&gt;&lt;img border=&quot;0&quot; height=&quot;254&quot; src=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgpG25aGeiXSFduvmbz7pLXFlbuReTNSI6ZJT-YQ0rFreuvxXjuDv8vMlzGEoEa1KjWXSf9427KzDd0sa5NkoPENZNc6aYszDIHKVQu-sMgKkf1OzunwmYNdUkvHPGOH9yQc2hliCAL1rM/s320/3-new-enhancements-to-Project-Online-1.png&quot; width=&quot;320&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
  422. &lt;br /&gt;
  423. This feature is available from today.&lt;br /&gt;
  424. &lt;br /&gt;
  425. 2.&amp;nbsp;&lt;span style=&quot;background-color: white; color: #404040; line-height: 1.5;&quot;&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: inherit;&quot;&gt;Project IDs&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
  426. &lt;span style=&quot;color: #404040;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;background-color: white; line-height: 21.8182px;&quot;&gt;This was much awaited!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
  427. &lt;span style=&quot;color: #404040;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;background-color: white; line-height: 21.8182px;&quot;&gt;Until today I have to use JS or other solutions, in order to generate unique ID for each project.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
  428. &lt;span style=&quot;color: #404040;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;background-color: white; line-height: 21.8182px;&quot;&gt;This is now going to be available as OOB option, and can be configured as part of the Enterprise Project Type (EPT) settings.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
  429. &lt;span style=&quot;color: #404040;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;background-color: white; line-height: 21.8182px;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;
  430. &lt;span style=&quot;color: #404040;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;background-color: white; line-height: 21.8182px;&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjMeTHl9F5lLnAFeTxayss2AuuraPmAZEN_y1Bkhyg7hyphenhyphenpvwumqOPysYBjm7cpUAIFsK6ohfEXTIY8AYb_k3p_ADLil_sM3LVPfkid5z_dVJatcE653luMYJCg5xxP5lZtE4ArCrPOTw84/s1600/3-new-enhancements-to-Project-Online-2.png&quot; imageanchor=&quot;1&quot;&gt;&lt;img border=&quot;0&quot; height=&quot;110&quot; src=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjMeTHl9F5lLnAFeTxayss2AuuraPmAZEN_y1Bkhyg7hyphenhyphenpvwumqOPysYBjm7cpUAIFsK6ohfEXTIY8AYb_k3p_ADLil_sM3LVPfkid5z_dVJatcE653luMYJCg5xxP5lZtE4ArCrPOTw84/s640/3-new-enhancements-to-Project-Online-2.png&quot; width=&quot;640&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
  431. &lt;span style=&quot;color: #404040;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;
  432. &lt;span style=&quot;background-color: white; color: #404040; line-height: 24px;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: inherit;&quot;&gt;Each EPT has its own project ID definition. You can specify a fixed Pre- and Postfix, Starting Number and Minimum Digit Padding. The project ID can be added to a number of views throughout PWA and in custom reports. It can also be programmatically updated using CSOM.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
  433. &lt;span style=&quot;background-color: white; color: #404040; line-height: 24px;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: inherit;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;
  434. &lt;span style=&quot;background-color: white; color: #404040; line-height: 24px;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: inherit;&quot;&gt;Note, that this feature is still in final touches mode, and yet to be released.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
  435. &lt;span style=&quot;background-color: white; color: #404040; line-height: 24px;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: inherit;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;
  436. &lt;h3 style=&quot;background-color: white; border: 0px; box-sizing: inherit; clear: both; color: #404040; line-height: 1.5; margin: 0px 0px 0.5em; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;&quot;&gt;
  437. &lt;span style=&quot;font-family: inherit; font-size: small; font-weight: inherit;&quot;&gt;3.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: SegoeUI, &#39;Segoe UI&#39;, sans-serif; font-size: 24px; font-weight: inherit;&quot;&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: inherit; font-size: small;&quot;&gt;Increasing custom field limits for reporting&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;
  438. &lt;div&gt;
  439. This enhancement is simply &lt;b&gt;overwhelming.&lt;/b&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;
  440. &lt;div&gt;
  441. Reporting from Project Online was an issue with prior limitation of 45 custom fields.&lt;/div&gt;
  442. &lt;div&gt;
  443. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  444. &lt;div&gt;
  445. With this new enhancement introduced, increased new limits on &lt;b&gt;ALL &lt;/b&gt;custom field types are:&lt;/div&gt;
  446. &lt;div&gt;
  447. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  448. &lt;div&gt;

  731. put together a nice dashboard using several existing SSRS reports without
  732. seeking support from technical wizards. &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

  805. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
  806. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  807. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
  808. And here comes another great news, Microsoft has recently
  809. announced general availability of &lt;b&gt;Project Server and SharePoint 2016 Beta 2
  810. versions.&lt;/b&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  811. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
  812. &lt;b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  813. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
  814. Earlier this month, November 2015, at European SharePoint
  815. conference 2015 Microsoft’s top leadership has made this big announcement. Jeff
  816. Teper, Microsoft’s corporate vice president OneDrive and SharePoint, has
  817. announced in a conference that:&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  818. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
  819. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  820. &lt;div align=&quot;center&quot; class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;text-align: center;&quot;&gt;
  821. &lt;i&gt;SharePoint 2016
  822. Beta 2 will be released before the end of November, and should be out before US
  823. Thanksgiving (November 26). It will be 99 percent feature complete, so we
  824. should get a better view of what SharePoint 2016 RTM will actually look like.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  825. &lt;div align=&quot;center&quot; class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;text-align: center;&quot;&gt;
  826. &lt;i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  827. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
  828. The Beta version is available to download and use, only for
  829. evaluation purposes. You can find links to relevant sources at end of this
  830. post. &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  831. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
  832. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  833. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
  834. Now as Microsoft has announced that it’s a 99% feature
  835. complete release, which means that we can safely anticipate about what we going
  836. to receive as RTM release in next year. I would like to quickly bullet point the updates to Beta version since the Preview version.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

  1101. preview version were released, that includes Office 2016 suite products, plus Project
  1102. and Visio.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;
  1103. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
  1104. All of these products are available in desktop and office 365
  1105. formats for trials. &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1106. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
  1107. I have shared the links to download/install preview of Office
  1108. and Project 2016 in this &lt;a href=&quot;http://khurramjamshed.blogspot.com.au/2015/05/office-project-and-visio-2016-preview.html&quot;&gt;post&lt;/a&gt;
  1109. a while ago.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1110. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
  1111. Since then I wanted to write my first hand review of Project
  1112. 2016.&lt;/div&gt;
  1113. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
  1114. And here it goes:&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1115. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
  1116. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1117. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
  1118. &lt;b&gt;Installation of Project 2016&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1119. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
  1120. First thing first, installation challenges.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1121. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
  1122. Prior to installing Project 2016, same goes for Office 2016,
  1123. you need to uninstall 2013 version of the same product as they both can’t stay together.
  1124. &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1125. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
  1126. Anyone can uninstall, and then install the new version,
  1127. right? Not really.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1128. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
  1129. This wouldn’t be as simple as it sounds like if you also ever
  1130. have installed Project 2013 office 365 version on your machine along with
  1131. Project 2013 desktop version. &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1132. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
  1133. At least in my case, I have tried every possible way of removing
  1134. 2013 version, but Project 2016 was kept crashing soon after it starts. &lt;a href=&quot;https://techjourney.net/office-2016-preview-applications-crash-and-close-despite-repair/?linkId=14594652&quot;&gt;Here&lt;/a&gt;,
  1135. and may be few other places, have described a solution to an issue but it never
  1136. worked for me and eventually I end up installing to a fresh VM that has no traces
  1137. of prior version.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1138. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
  1139. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1140. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
  1141. &lt;b&gt;How it looks like&lt;/b&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1142. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
  1143. Exactly the same as its predecessor:&lt;/div&gt;
  1144. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
  1145. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1146. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
  1147. &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

  1152. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;

  1154. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
  1155. It works with Project Server 2013.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1156. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
  1157. You can configure account to connect with PWA instance in a
  1158. usual way.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

  1166. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1167. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
  1168. &lt;b&gt;The Ribbon&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1169. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
  1170. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1171. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
  1172. No changes in terms of
  1173. design, or layout of tabs or options within those tabs. So no learning curve.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1174. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
  1175. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1176. &lt;div class=&quot;separator&quot; style=&quot;clear: both; text-align: center;&quot;&gt;

  1178. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
  1179. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1180. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
  1181. The first thing you will
  1182. notice is: &lt;i&gt;Tell me what you want to do &lt;/i&gt;&amp;nbsp;option on ribbon.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1183. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
  1184. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1185. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
  1186. This is not just an
  1187. online/local search option which can bring you list of URLs or commands to
  1188. match you search, its much more than that and quite intuitive to use.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1189. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
  1190. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1191. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
  1192. For instance I wanted to create/insert a milestone task in
  1193. my project, I did:&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1194. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
  1195. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1196. &lt;div class=&quot;separator&quot; style=&quot;clear: both; text-align: center;&quot;&gt;
  1197. &lt;a href=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg-Rzm0UIklB04btSCPns2Gj9oB8ZT0MeiNlHQUjQFSCJ0t-Yv-sUR20x3-EVu1huhmIaeS8v5eNtx5-TH3DgL70-cjWf6zTVvgeSnPVPQAO2oYwA5Syjqhy1rTle36gIX04oVHbZ5T3hA/s1600/2.png&quot; imageanchor=&quot;1&quot; style=&quot;margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;&quot;&gt;&lt;img border=&quot;0&quot; height=&quot;158&quot; src=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg-Rzm0UIklB04btSCPns2Gj9oB8ZT0MeiNlHQUjQFSCJ0t-Yv-sUR20x3-EVu1huhmIaeS8v5eNtx5-TH3DgL70-cjWf6zTVvgeSnPVPQAO2oYwA5Syjqhy1rTle36gIX04oVHbZ5T3hA/s640/2.png&quot; width=&quot;640&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1198. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
  1199. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1200. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
  1201. Considering the first option most relevant to my requirement,
  1202. I clicked on the first one &lt;i&gt;Insert Milestone&lt;/i&gt;, and result is below:&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1203. &lt;div class=&quot;separator&quot; style=&quot;clear: both; text-align: center;&quot;&gt;
  1204. &lt;a href=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiTjoZfEVseeoh5fXeB5StzvmRpKiQycK4wcpg57iL0BZ_nh6ot3jTaeXZLRJ3U-tLQm884OKDySkzSjCNRNF0gGACfklf7q7hEKTj7x46y8cz6E5ZJaaWkiaw_nV_jsy6LrdYpzCLAoJs/s1600/3.png&quot; imageanchor=&quot;1&quot; style=&quot;margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;&quot;&gt;&lt;img border=&quot;0&quot; height=&quot;166&quot; src=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiTjoZfEVseeoh5fXeB5StzvmRpKiQycK4wcpg57iL0BZ_nh6ot3jTaeXZLRJ3U-tLQm884OKDySkzSjCNRNF0gGACfklf7q7hEKTj7x46y8cz6E5ZJaaWkiaw_nV_jsy6LrdYpzCLAoJs/s640/3.png&quot; width=&quot;640&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1205. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
  1206. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1207. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
  1208. Not only this helps you list down all the commands close to
  1209. your requirement, it also performs action.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1210. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
  1211. In past I have seen requirement of having interactive
  1212. tutorial or guide which can help user with Project options while schedules.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;
  1213. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
  1214. This option can fill that gap to some extent.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1215. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
  1216. &lt;b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1217. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
  1218. &lt;b&gt;Multiple Timelines&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1219. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
  1220. Timelines were introduced in Project 2013, another way of presenting
  1221. attractive summary of your schedules.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1222. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
  1223. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1224. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
  1225. In Project 2016, it goes one step forward.&lt;/div&gt;
  1226. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
  1227. You can now create
  1228. more than 1 timelines within same schedule.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1229. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
  1230. Created one below to
  1231. depict Project and Project summary tasks:&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1232. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
  1233. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1234. &lt;div class=&quot;separator&quot; style=&quot;clear: both; text-align: center;&quot;&gt;

  1237. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1238. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
  1239. To create 2&lt;sup&gt;nd&lt;/sup&gt;
  1240. or more, click on &lt;i&gt;timeline bar&lt;/i&gt; to insert another timeline:&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1241. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;

  1246. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1247. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
  1248. And here goes 2&lt;sup&gt;nd&lt;/sup&gt; timeline bar to present
  1249. milestones of project:&lt;/div&gt;
  1250. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;

  1255. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1256. &lt;div class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;
  1257. The much awaited option, though not visible yet but would be
  1258. either in a final version or once you will connect Project with Project Server 2016:
  1259. &lt;b&gt;Resource Engagement&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

  1279. &lt;br /&gt;
  1280. This is to spread the word, with great excitement, that Project 2016 preview version is now available for trial use.&lt;br /&gt;
  1281. &lt;br /&gt;
  1282. If you do not have required Office 365 subscription to try Project or Visio 2016, you can download using below links and trial product keys:&lt;br /&gt;
  1283. &lt;h4&gt;
  1284. &lt;/h4&gt;
  1285. &lt;h3&gt;
  1286. &lt;/h3&gt;
  1287. &lt;h2&gt;
  1288. &lt;/h2&gt;
  1289. &lt;h3&gt;
  1290. &lt;/h3&gt;
  1291. &lt;h3 style=&quot;text-align: left;&quot;&gt;
  1292. &lt;u&gt;Project&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;
  1293. &lt;div style=&quot;text-align: left;&quot;&gt;
  1294. &lt;span style=&quot;font-size: small; font-weight: normal;&quot;&gt;product key:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Arial; font-size: x-small; font-weight: normal; line-height: 18.165599822998px;&quot;&gt;N46MP-733KG-T8MR9-VV9JX-HCFG4&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1295. &lt;ul style=&quot;text-align: left;&quot;&gt;

  1298. &lt;/ul&gt;
  1299. &lt;h3 style=&quot;text-align: left;&quot;&gt;
  1300. &lt;u&gt;Visio&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;
  1301. &lt;div&gt;
  1302. &lt;span style=&quot;font-size: small;&quot;&gt;product key:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Arial; font-size: x-small; line-height: 18.165599822998px;&quot;&gt;W9WC2-JN9W2-H4CBV-24QR7-M4HB8&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1303. &lt;ul style=&quot;text-align: left;&quot;&gt;

  1305. &lt;li&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/p/?LinkID=613660&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;Visio 64 bit&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
  1306. &lt;/ul&gt;
  1307. Few weeks back, at Ignite 2015, preview version of Office 2016 was announced. You can browse &lt;a href=&quot;https://products.office.com/en-us/office-2016-preview&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;here &lt;/a&gt;to download Office 2016 desktop version for trial. Or if you have an Office 365 subscription, home or enterprise, you can find details &lt;a href=&quot;https://products.office.com/en-us/office-2016-preview&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;here &lt;/a&gt;to download new version.&lt;br /&gt;
  1308. &lt;br /&gt;
  1309. &lt;br /&gt;
  1310. &lt;div class=&quot;separator&quot; style=&quot;clear: both; text-align: center;&quot;&gt;
  1311. &lt;a href=&quot;https://products.office.com/en-us/office-2016-preview&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;&lt;img border=&quot;0&quot; height=&quot;99&quot; src=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjuOYGJ7Zwy8OmGpl3OHOK0QzsvnGj7Gl_XTJHqGR4djlv6jOP6rBc_PD8MZFir_FmFXZkooPFzdOsYiVEZKx5qlBrrvATf02CN69J_hkhi8sCIULBzmWdX3gnSVqS5YXZPT00PqJXVHUY/s320/0827.image_784B609B.png&quot; width=&quot;320&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1312. &lt;div class=&quot;separator&quot; style=&quot;clear: both; text-align: center;&quot;&gt;
  1313. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1314. &lt;div class=&quot;separator&quot; style=&quot;clear: both; text-align: left;&quot;&gt;
  1315. An important point to note regarding Office 2016 preview version, is that it cant be installed side by side to Office 2013 (not sure if its true for Office 2010 as well). So you have to uninstall Office 2013 prior to install Office 2016 preview.&lt;/div&gt;
  1316. &lt;div class=&quot;separator&quot; style=&quot;clear: both; text-align: left;&quot;&gt;
  1317. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1318. &lt;div class=&quot;separator&quot; style=&quot;clear: both; text-align: left;&quot;&gt;
  1319. Enjoy.&lt;/div&gt;
  1320. &lt;div class=&quot;separator&quot; style=&quot;clear: both; text-align: left;&quot;&gt;
  1321. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

  1324. So the week of MS Ignite is over, and there is whole lot of information to absorb.&lt;br /&gt;
  1325. &lt;br /&gt;
  1326. I had been closely following to all the happenings and announcements, and in this post i will summarize my take away of information related to SharePoint and Project Server.&lt;br /&gt;
  1327. &lt;br /&gt;
  1328. &lt;div style=&quot;text-align: left;&quot;&gt;
  1329. So Microsoft has confirmed, that&amp;nbsp;&lt;span style=&quot;background-color: white; line-height: 18.165599822998px;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: inherit;&quot;&gt;SharePoint Server 2016 (and Project Server) will become generally available in second quarter of 2016, with a public beta planned for last quarter of 2015.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1330. &lt;div style=&quot;text-align: left;&quot;&gt;
  1331. &lt;span style=&quot;background-color: white; color: #333333; line-height: 18.165599822998px;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: inherit;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1332. &lt;div style=&quot;text-align: left;&quot;&gt;
  1333. &lt;span style=&quot;background-color: white; color: #333333; line-height: 18.165599822998px;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: inherit;&quot;&gt;Microsoft has also confirmed that they will continue to release on-premises version of SharePoint/Project Server, however considering MS&#39;s Cloud first strategy, every new feature will be released first Project Online and later to On-Premises version through a update/CU/SP.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1334. &lt;div style=&quot;text-align: left;&quot;&gt;
  1335. &lt;span style=&quot;background-color: white; color: #333333; line-height: 18.165599822998px;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: inherit;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1336. &lt;div style=&quot;text-align: left;&quot;&gt;
  1337. &lt;span style=&quot;color: #333333; font-size: large;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;background-color: white; line-height: 18.165599822998px;&quot;&gt;&lt;b&gt;Project Online/ Project Server 2013:&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1338. &lt;div style=&quot;text-align: left;&quot;&gt;
  1339. &lt;span style=&quot;color: #333333; font-size: large;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;background-color: white; line-height: 18.165599822998px;&quot;&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1340. &lt;div style=&quot;text-align: left;&quot;&gt;
  1341. Following were the announcements in Ignite related to Project Server 2016:&lt;/div&gt;
  1342. &lt;div style=&quot;text-align: left;&quot;&gt;
  1343. &lt;/div&gt;

  1353. There isn&#39;t any proper mechanism in current PPM solution, that can allow Resource Manager to control allocation of resource to Projects. And Project Managers to formally request to block required resource for certain period of time to ensure availability of resource.&lt;/div&gt;

  1443. In Project Server/Project Online world, we deal with Project Detail Pages (PDPs) all the time to place custom fields using Basic info web-part.&lt;br /&gt;
  1444. &lt;br /&gt;
  1445. There is often a need a when we have to drop more than one basic info web-part to a same page to group similar fields. I usually do this when i have to put similar fields under one group heading.&lt;br /&gt;
  1446. &lt;br /&gt;
  1447. When you add custom fields to the page using more than few webparts, following potential issues can occur:&lt;br /&gt;
  1448. &lt;ol style=&quot;text-align: left;&quot;&gt;
  1449. &lt;li&gt;Due to an extra padding automatically included by default for each webpart. You will observe a noticeable gap between each webpart on same page. And OOB configuration of webpart doesn&#39;t have any way to reduce this gap. So in some cases, it may become unacceptable for customer.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/li&gt;
  1450. &lt;li&gt;Dropping custom fields on same page using several Basic info webparts can also cause alignment issue between custom fields.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/li&gt;
  1451. &lt;/ol&gt;
  1452. &lt;br /&gt;
  1453. Below image depicts both issues:&lt;br /&gt;
  1454. &lt;br /&gt;
  1455. &lt;div class=&quot;separator&quot; style=&quot;clear: both; text-align: center;&quot;&gt;
  1456. &lt;a href=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh69RTMry3l_vZrvvxE-WkngSMyiFa6jAFMyhLK-Tz9GSeI9n0U8SBzgoZ8qM8S4-ZkDLMuXr_410Jaf1zmF-70DOXuOazUaSvyJGl89V9laXS5Gbr4-dqHM2YQGpFq3a3Bi6MxrNpGQUw/s1600/gap_wp.png&quot; imageanchor=&quot;1&quot; style=&quot;margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;&quot;&gt;&lt;img border=&quot;0&quot; src=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh69RTMry3l_vZrvvxE-WkngSMyiFa6jAFMyhLK-Tz9GSeI9n0U8SBzgoZ8qM8S4-ZkDLMuXr_410Jaf1zmF-70DOXuOazUaSvyJGl89V9laXS5Gbr4-dqHM2YQGpFq3a3Bi6MxrNpGQUw/s1600/gap_wp.png&quot; height=&quot;400&quot; width=&quot;341&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1457. And here comes an easy solution to reduce the gap between webparts, add the below css to PDP using content editor webpart, and it will reduce spacing to 0:&lt;br /&gt;
  1458. &lt;br /&gt;
  1459. &lt;br /&gt;
  1460. &lt;div class=&quot;line number1 index0 alt2&quot;&gt;
  1461. &lt;code class=&quot;css plain&quot;&gt;&amp;lt;style type=&lt;/code&gt;&lt;code class=&quot;css string&quot;&gt;&quot;text/css&quot;&lt;/code&gt;&lt;code class=&quot;css plain&quot;&gt;&amp;gt;&lt;/code&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

  1724. Its been a while that i was away.&lt;br /&gt;
  1725. &lt;br /&gt;
  1726. Those who were wondering, if any, about my whereabouts. Its my pleasure to announce that i am alive and rocking :)&lt;br /&gt;
  1727. &lt;br /&gt;
  1728. Last year had been a massive year for me, both at personal and professional fronts.&lt;br /&gt;
  1729. Became a father for 2nd time, and relocated to a different place. It all became a little too overwhelming during past few months, more than i have anticipated, but its all settling down well now.&lt;br /&gt;
  1730. &lt;br /&gt;
  1731. So its about time to get back to business. Time to pen down more stuff. Time to reconnect.&lt;br /&gt;
  1732. &lt;br /&gt;
  1733. Lets rock &amp;amp; roll.&lt;br /&gt;

  1737. In relation to a famous &lt;b&gt;Lost Resources &lt;/b&gt;issue in Project Server 2013, i would like to share few more symptoms that can help you to identify this issue and apply the relative fix. Also the purpose is to feed search engines with more relevant data to help us lead to right direction.&lt;br /&gt;
  1738. &lt;br /&gt;
  1739. By the way if anyone has already applied April 2014 CU, or planning to apply, then note that the fix for this issue is available as part of this April 2014 CU. But the fix will not solve any existing affected projects, and you need to follow Brian&#39;s advise mentioned in his blog (URL available below) to fix it.&lt;br /&gt;
  1740. &lt;br /&gt;
  1741. Also more details and immediate fix, in case you are not planning to apply CU, is available here at Brian Smith&#39;s blog: &lt;a href=&quot;http://blogs.technet.com/b/projectsupport/archive/2014/02/06/project-server-2013-and-project-online-what-happened-to-my-resources.aspx&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;Blog&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;and &lt;a href=&quot;http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2933444&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;Fix&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
  1742. &lt;br /&gt;
  1743. Following are my findings related to the same issue:&lt;br /&gt;
  1744. &lt;br /&gt;
  1745. &lt;u&gt;Error on Project Page in PWA:&lt;/u&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
  1746. &lt;br /&gt;
  1747. The general error statement on PWA page is not so helpful :)&lt;br /&gt;
  1748. &lt;div class=&quot;separator&quot; style=&quot;clear: both; text-align: center;&quot;&gt;
  1749. &lt;/div&gt;
  1750. &lt;br /&gt;
  1751. &lt;div class=&quot;separator&quot; style=&quot;clear: both; text-align: center;&quot;&gt;
  1752. &lt;a href=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgfXDlxEO0jSL6QpKgr0IDZw8MTDOio7uGlfOxBmC297kL4yIJp_N47TTCnvqzlKK0MR1ZRo1iIOWcx24eePUzCO3zawKd9gidgBK2Jl_aRdg-FDsW5fFoZxOiovgRWi4UTeJAQHywvDrg/s1600/3.png&quot; imageanchor=&quot;1&quot; style=&quot;margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;&quot;&gt;&lt;img border=&quot;0&quot; src=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgfXDlxEO0jSL6QpKgr0IDZw8MTDOio7uGlfOxBmC297kL4yIJp_N47TTCnvqzlKK0MR1ZRo1iIOWcx24eePUzCO3zawKd9gidgBK2Jl_aRdg-FDsW5fFoZxOiovgRWi4UTeJAQHywvDrg/s1600/3.png&quot; height=&quot;228&quot; width=&quot;640&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1753. &lt;br /&gt;
  1754. &lt;br /&gt;
  1755. &lt;u&gt;Queue Error:&lt;/u&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
  1756. &lt;br /&gt;
  1757. You will find project stuck in queue with percentage completed less than 100%, and error details would be:&lt;br /&gt;

  1786. OK this post is actually about sharing an issue i came across lately, with the hope to get a fix through any of the coming CUs. And the hope is high, with the recent news of getting scheduled CU more frequently now :)&lt;br /&gt;
  1787. &lt;br /&gt;
  1788. Out of lot of improvements we are enjoying with Project Server 2013, one of them is having a scheduling capabilities built within &amp;nbsp;PWA, and now PWA schedule webpart do all the formula processing as well without open/publish the same project from Ms Project. Unlike its predecessor, where any formula field requires MS Project push to get populated, and hence we had dependency to Ms Project even in the presence of web client and it was nightmare sometimes to explain to end user that why they need to buy more Ms Projects licenses to cope up with web based client limitations.&lt;br /&gt;
  1789. &lt;br /&gt;
  1790. But recently i found that &lt;u&gt;&#39;Task level number type roll up formula field, if copied to Project level number type formula field - doesnt work&#39;&lt;/u&gt; :(&lt;br /&gt;
  1791. &lt;br /&gt;
  1792. Now let me try to illustrate above through an example to make it more clearer:&lt;br /&gt;
  1793. And before i start, note that my server is patched with SP1 (re-released) + Jul 2014 CU.&lt;br /&gt;
  1794. &lt;br /&gt;
  1795. 1. Create a task level number type field, lets name it: &lt;b&gt;%Weight&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
  1796. 2. Create a task level number type formula field, with roll up &lt;b&gt;Sum &lt;/b&gt;calculation for summary rows:&lt;br /&gt;
  1797. &lt;br /&gt;
  1798. &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;Lets name it: &amp;nbsp;&lt;b&gt;%WeightedProgress&lt;/b&gt; = &lt;u&gt;([&lt;b&gt;% Complete&lt;/b&gt;] * [&lt;b&gt;%Weight&lt;/b&gt;]) / 100&lt;/u&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
  1799. &lt;br /&gt;
  1800. Here %complete is a default field, and&amp;nbsp;%Weight is the one we have created at step-1 and&amp;nbsp;will be manually updated by users.&lt;br /&gt;
  1801. &lt;br /&gt;
  1802. 3. Create a project level number type formula field:&lt;br /&gt;
  1803. &lt;br /&gt;
  1804. &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; Lets Name it&amp;nbsp;&lt;b&gt;%ProjectProgress&lt;/b&gt;&amp;nbsp;= &amp;nbsp;&lt;b&gt;%WeightedProgress&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
  1805. &lt;br /&gt;
  1806. As you can see, i am only copying data of task level formula field to project level field in order to show the data in project center.&lt;br /&gt;
  1807. &lt;br /&gt;
  1808. &lt;u&gt;Using PWA web scheduler:&lt;/u&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
  1809. &lt;br /&gt;
  1810. 1. I have entered %Weight for following 2 tasks, %Weighted Progress is 0 for each task because %Complete is 0, and hence at project level roll up value is also 0.&lt;br /&gt;
  1811. &lt;br /&gt;
  1812. &lt;div class=&quot;separator&quot; style=&quot;clear: both; text-align: center;&quot;&gt;
  1813. &lt;a href=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg9H1QYexu5lvTob6Nts5jZnmtna1S5ci90jtL2Pf6Oq8RO0S9vRzf_8NPLsV3d4qn2ePqbxvrwt-t53Adrib4cD_55QJ8S45_N3ZCa6Tr6UHfHCau6NhPaQgvLQ__QdZf5uFu25n5T3kE/s1600/1.png&quot; imageanchor=&quot;1&quot; style=&quot;margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;&quot;&gt;&lt;img border=&quot;0&quot; src=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg9H1QYexu5lvTob6Nts5jZnmtna1S5ci90jtL2Pf6Oq8RO0S9vRzf_8NPLsV3d4qn2ePqbxvrwt-t53Adrib4cD_55QJ8S45_N3ZCa6Tr6UHfHCau6NhPaQgvLQ__QdZf5uFu25n5T3kE/s1600/1.png&quot; height=&quot;332&quot; width=&quot;640&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1814. &lt;br /&gt;
  1815. &lt;br /&gt;
  1816. 2. Update %Complete of first task with 50%, and %Weighted Progress will be calculated using formula and became 10 at task level and Project roll up level. Publish project.&lt;br /&gt;
  1817. &lt;br /&gt;
  1818. &lt;div class=&quot;separator&quot; style=&quot;clear: both; text-align: center;&quot;&gt;
  1819. &lt;a href=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEic9HNvbW_ivGAfAcZBekmkfOjcnyts2UdLPCnjeegU0Nw3bas-KrsrvUl6ZdM56Ukg7po6u8Wm-i0BnD5Y3KArzRAjIDf6g5-4rj-8ASNP5cqHX0y67kN8qLNWJr7lPaEGr0ssrjH5jYI/s1600/2.png&quot; imageanchor=&quot;1&quot; style=&quot;margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;&quot;&gt;&lt;img border=&quot;0&quot; src=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEic9HNvbW_ivGAfAcZBekmkfOjcnyts2UdLPCnjeegU0Nw3bas-KrsrvUl6ZdM56Ukg7po6u8Wm-i0BnD5Y3KArzRAjIDf6g5-4rj-8ASNP5cqHX0y67kN8qLNWJr7lPaEGr0ssrjH5jYI/s1600/2.png&quot; height=&quot;332&quot; width=&quot;640&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1820. &lt;br /&gt;
  1821. &amp;nbsp;3. Open Project Center and observe % Weighted Progress, its showing 0 which was the task roll up at project level before we have made any changes.&lt;br /&gt;
  1822. &lt;br /&gt;
  1823. &lt;div class=&quot;separator&quot; style=&quot;clear: both; text-align: center;&quot;&gt;
  1824. &lt;/div&gt;
  1825. &lt;div class=&quot;separator&quot; style=&quot;clear: both; text-align: center;&quot;&gt;
  1826. &lt;a href=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiGN08Tgt0Td2PjgNnSmYOJ8Orha5efRNvzRRsP7mr0-eN-LxMhv79ERmwZsInFYgVx6u6nuApcinNiuAs9N-7swOfU6LICOBXuXL3ng-OGvKflAkGPFr-Q83qT4HIvSxHMNwZ0LHP3zuY/s1600/3.png&quot; imageanchor=&quot;1&quot; style=&quot;margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;&quot;&gt;&lt;img border=&quot;0&quot; src=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiGN08Tgt0Td2PjgNnSmYOJ8Orha5efRNvzRRsP7mr0-eN-LxMhv79ERmwZsInFYgVx6u6nuApcinNiuAs9N-7swOfU6LICOBXuXL3ng-OGvKflAkGPFr-Q83qT4HIvSxHMNwZ0LHP3zuY/s1600/3.png&quot; height=&quot;194&quot; width=&quot;640&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1827. &lt;br /&gt;
  1828. &lt;br /&gt;
  1829. 4. Open project, and update %Complete of 2nd task with 50% and that will change %Weighted Progress value to 25. Publish project.&lt;a href=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgXJxP_19ak_ktO6tiB3JzJlt68kd02H7tgNxyHTJoEqha5HKsywFlI4yWc2G2qTapXQv2EHpxM8tA7y_FWEm6MqLGJTZ6oVnqV83msb99Ga-NJUGJ4uyFaVfK9C1u6UHYEfb5EjZ4Z27g/s1600/4.png&quot; imageanchor=&quot;1&quot; style=&quot;margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em; text-align: center;&quot;&gt;&lt;img border=&quot;0&quot; src=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgXJxP_19ak_ktO6tiB3JzJlt68kd02H7tgNxyHTJoEqha5HKsywFlI4yWc2G2qTapXQv2EHpxM8tA7y_FWEm6MqLGJTZ6oVnqV83msb99Ga-NJUGJ4uyFaVfK9C1u6UHYEfb5EjZ4Z27g/s1600/4.png&quot; height=&quot;332&quot; width=&quot;640&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
  1830. &lt;br /&gt;
  1831. 5. Open Project Center, and observe %Weighted Progress, its showing 10&amp;nbsp;which was the task roll up at project level before we have made change to 2nd task.&lt;br /&gt;
  1832. &lt;br /&gt;
  1833. &lt;div class=&quot;separator&quot; style=&quot;clear: both; text-align: center;&quot;&gt;
  1834. &lt;a href=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj0ysJF-Vh39sJZjSqEpI1v9yC9fObE1WEACCYEgjSpHVgwRK5haXesOqOCB29o0KlXon6iXDiAxrKnFtn-bC7F498_mMTS2qEMfNlJJ-Z5b2I3OCGbaLOK2Z_eyt8tfGP0Ro013s8uK5w/s1600/5.png&quot; imageanchor=&quot;1&quot; style=&quot;margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;&quot;&gt;&lt;img border=&quot;0&quot; src=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj0ysJF-Vh39sJZjSqEpI1v9yC9fObE1WEACCYEgjSpHVgwRK5haXesOqOCB29o0KlXon6iXDiAxrKnFtn-bC7F498_mMTS2qEMfNlJJ-Z5b2I3OCGbaLOK2Z_eyt8tfGP0Ro013s8uK5w/s1600/5.png&quot; height=&quot;196&quot; width=&quot;640&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1835. &lt;br /&gt;
  1836. By now you may have learnt that its following a unique pattern while updating project level custom field. That its showing you previous value at project center level once you publish your project, although at Project level it updates at the same time.&lt;br /&gt;
  1837. &lt;br /&gt;
  1838. So the first time when at Project level it was 0, in Project Center it was appearing blank.&lt;br /&gt;
  1839. Second time when at Project level it was 10, in Project Center it was appearing 0.&lt;br /&gt;
  1840. Third time when at Project level it was 25, in Project Center it was appearing 10.&lt;br /&gt;
  1841. &lt;br /&gt;
  1842. Lets update our project plan one more time to assure our conclusion.&lt;br /&gt;
  1843. &lt;br /&gt;
  1844. 6. Open project, and update %Complete of Task A with 100% and that will change %Weighted Progress value to 35. Publish project.&lt;br /&gt;
  1845. &lt;br /&gt;
  1846. &lt;div class=&quot;separator&quot; style=&quot;clear: both; text-align: center;&quot;&gt;
  1847. &lt;/div&gt;
  1848. &lt;br /&gt;
  1849. 7. Open Project Center, and observe %Weighted Progress, its showing 25 which was the task roll up at project level before we have made change to Task A.&lt;br /&gt;
  1850. &lt;br /&gt;
  1851. &lt;div class=&quot;separator&quot; style=&quot;clear: both; text-align: center;&quot;&gt;
  1852. &lt;a href=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgiBXGsZ_OJZpe7qN-iBteFWnMudU_uuYrHDqnrsAJqO6bV_hxkU4CJgfWuw600KlodjSTAXBKF2Jvr_KRPu4R1ymi3HRMbn6ZeX9GngfTg5XE4uTdxvZB-HC6XQSy68WWE8oRLkYfNJpE/s1600/7.png&quot; imageanchor=&quot;1&quot; style=&quot;margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;&quot;&gt;&lt;img border=&quot;0&quot; src=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgiBXGsZ_OJZpe7qN-iBteFWnMudU_uuYrHDqnrsAJqO6bV_hxkU4CJgfWuw600KlodjSTAXBKF2Jvr_KRPu4R1ymi3HRMbn6ZeX9GngfTg5XE4uTdxvZB-HC6XQSy68WWE8oRLkYfNJpE/s1600/7.png&quot; height=&quot;196&quot; width=&quot;640&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1853. &lt;br /&gt;
  1854. &lt;br /&gt;
  1855. So Fourth time when at Project level it was 35, in Project Center it was appearing 25.&lt;br /&gt;
  1856. &lt;br /&gt;
  1857. I hope an issue is clear, now a workaround to this is to open/publish using Ms Project and everything will work like a charm, just like old times (Project Server 2010).&lt;br /&gt;
  1858. &lt;br /&gt;
  1859. Though its not workable in my current scenario because not all the end user have Ms Project on their PCs.&lt;br /&gt;
  1860. &lt;br /&gt;
  1861. With the hope that we get fix to this issue soon :), see ya next time.&lt;br /&gt;
  1862. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

  1864. There is lot of noise over the web related to Service Pack 1 of MS Office 2013 products, it was released with much of an applaud then deactivated due to issue and then re-released with lot of clarifications :) because in between deactivation and re-release of SP1, April 2014 CU for Project Server and SharePoint 2013 was also released.&lt;br /&gt;
  1865. &lt;br /&gt;
  1866. So let me kill all this unnecessary noise with the final announcement that Service Pack 1 is now available to download, and all the clarifications in a nut shell is that &lt;b&gt;Just apply this SP1 to your&amp;nbsp;environment&amp;nbsp;even if you have applied the previously released SP, and also feel free to apply this SP1 if you&amp;nbsp;have April 2014 CU in place. &lt;/b&gt;&amp;nbsp;don&#39;t forget to &amp;nbsp;run the configuration wizard in the end :)&lt;br /&gt;
  1867. &lt;br /&gt;
  1868. Also do not forget that unlike old times, this SP1 is not a roll up package, which mean you should install SharePoint 2013 SP1 + Project Server 2013 SP1 and then run the configuration wizard in the end.&lt;br /&gt;

  1888. This is to announce that April 2014 CU of Project, Project Server and SharePoint Server 2013/2010 is out now. The important point to note that April 2014 CU of Project Server 2013 includes the fixes of SP1 as well. Since SP1 is deactivated until further announcement from Microsoft, Apr 2014 CU can do the job for now.&lt;br /&gt;
  1889. &lt;br /&gt;
  1890. Also Project Server 2013 CU is not a roll-up package, which means it doesn&#39;t includes SharePoint server fixes.&lt;br /&gt;
  1891. &lt;br /&gt;
  1892. Test the CU in your test environment first prior to apply to production.&lt;br /&gt;

  1948. &lt;li&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;line-height: 18px; padding-bottom: 15px;&quot;&gt;
  1949. In the&amp;nbsp;&lt;strong&gt;Value&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;nbsp;box, type&amp;nbsp;&lt;strong&gt;Microsoft SharePoint Products&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;nbsp;as the container name, and then click&amp;nbsp;&lt;strong&gt;Next.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  1950. &lt;/li&gt;
  1951. &lt;li&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;line-height: 18px; padding-bottom: 15px;&quot;&gt;
  1952. Click&amp;nbsp;&lt;strong&gt;Finish&lt;/strong&gt;.&lt;/div&gt;
  1953. &lt;div style=&quot;line-height: 18px; padding-bottom: 15px;&quot;&gt;
  1954. The container is created.&lt;/div&gt;
  1955. &lt;/li&gt;
  1956. &lt;li&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;line-height: 18px; padding-bottom: 15px;&quot;&gt;
  1957. Right click the container (CN=Microsoft SharePoint Products), and then click&amp;nbsp;&lt;strong&gt;Properties&lt;/strong&gt;.&lt;/div&gt;
  1958. &lt;/li&gt;

  1964. &lt;div style=&quot;line-height: 18px; padding-bottom: 15px;&quot;&gt;
  1965. Note that if a user who cannot write to this container installs SharePoint Server 2010, no new entry will be created. Consider giving all Authenticated Users the permission so that you can track all the objects.&lt;/div&gt;
  1966. &lt;/li&gt;
  1967. &lt;li&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;line-height: 18px; padding-bottom: 15px;&quot;&gt;

  1974. In the&amp;nbsp;&lt;strong&gt;Permission Entry for Microsoft SharePoint Products&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;nbsp;dialog box, in the&amp;nbsp;&lt;strong&gt;Permissions&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;nbsp;box, select the&amp;nbsp;&lt;strong&gt;Allow&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;nbsp;check box for&lt;strong&gt;Create serviceConnectionPoint objects&lt;/strong&gt;, and then click&amp;nbsp;&lt;strong&gt;OK&lt;/strong&gt;.&lt;/div&gt;
  1975. &lt;/li&gt;
  1976. &lt;/ol&gt;

  2024. A quick note to spread the news that Service Pack 1 for SharePoint/Project Server 2013 and other 2013 office products is out now.&lt;br /&gt;

  2027. &lt;ul style=&quot;background-color: white; color: #2a2a2a; font-size: 12px; line-height: 14.532480239868164px;&quot;&gt;
  2028. &lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: small;&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=42011&quot; style=&quot;color: #00749e; cursor: pointer; outline: none; text-decoration: none;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: inherit;&quot;&gt;http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=42011&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
  2029. &lt;/ul&gt;
  2030. &lt;br /&gt;
  2031. For Project 2013 client, 32bit or 64bit, you can download from below:&lt;br /&gt;
  2032. &lt;ul style=&quot;background-color: white; color: #2a2a2a; line-height: 14.532480239868164px;&quot;&gt;
  2033. &lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: inherit;&quot;&gt;32 bit -&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=42013&quot; style=&quot;color: #00b0e0; cursor: pointer; outline: none; text-decoration: none;&quot;&gt;http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=42013&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
  2034. &lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: inherit;&quot;&gt;64 bit -&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=42020&quot; style=&quot;color: #00749e; cursor: pointer; outline: none; text-decoration: none;&quot;&gt;http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=42020&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
  2035. &lt;/ul&gt;
  2036. &lt;br /&gt;
  2037. For SharePoint 2013 server, you can download from below:&lt;br /&gt;
  2038. &lt;ul style=&quot;background-color: white; color: #2a2a2a; font-size: 12px; line-height: 14.532480239868164px;&quot;&gt;
  2039. &lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: small;&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=42008&quot; style=&quot;color: #00749e; cursor: pointer; outline: none; text-decoration: none;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: inherit;&quot;&gt;http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=42008&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
  2040. &lt;/ul&gt;
  2041. &lt;br /&gt;
  2042. Few important things to note here, that unlike previous versions, this time SP1 is not a roll-up version. Which means that Project Server SP1 doesn&#39;t include SharePoint side of update, and vice verse.&lt;br /&gt;
  2043. &lt;br /&gt;
  2044. &lt;a href=&quot;http://blogs.technet.com/b/projectsupport/archive/2014/02/25/project-2013-and-project-server-2013-service-pack-1.aspx&quot;&gt;http://blogs.technet.com/b/projectsupport/archive/2014/02/25/project-2013-and-project-server-2013-service-pack-1.aspx&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
  2045. &lt;br /&gt;
  2046. Also another important point, is that as part of lost resource fix if you have updated the required sproc, then you may need to update them again as SP1 will re-write those sprocs during installation/setup.&lt;br /&gt;
  2047. &lt;br /&gt;
  2048. &lt;a href=&quot;http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2933444&quot;&gt;http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2933444&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
  2049. &lt;br /&gt;
  2050. Also read the Project Client versioning details in Brians&#39;s post (same link as above).&lt;br /&gt;
  2051. &lt;br /&gt;
  2052. And in the end as always, try all the updates in test environment prior to apply to production.&lt;br /&gt;
  2053. &lt;br /&gt;
  2054. Happy patching.&lt;br /&gt;
  2055. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  2056. </description><link>http://khurramjamshed.blogspot.com/2014/03/say-hello-to-project-and-projectserver.html</link><author>noreply@blogger.com (Khurram Jamshed)</author><thr:total>0</thr:total></item><item><guid isPermaLink="false">tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8928866756253893430.post-8342875000656113760</guid><pubDate>Thu, 09 Jan 2014 14:30:00 +0000</pubDate><atom:updated>2014-01-09T18:30:01.987+04:00</atom:updated><title>#SharePoint 2010 setup error: Cannot connect to database master at  #sp2010 #ps2010 #sp2013</title><description>&lt;div dir=&quot;ltr&quot; style=&quot;text-align: left;&quot; trbidi=&quot;on&quot;&gt;
  2057. Lately i got a chance to help my customer with standard deployment of Project Server 2010, and as they say &quot;you learn new things each day&quot;, i also learnt about an issue which could be seen as basic activity but could lead you to pull your hairs while troubleshooting.&lt;br /&gt;
  2058. &lt;br /&gt;
  2059. The issue occurred while running SharePoint 2010 setup, after installing pre-requisites, and following first few initial screens of setup wizard. Once reached to the point where you can enter SharePoint database server name, and credentials which can be used to talk to database server. You may see this error:&lt;br /&gt;
  2060. &lt;br /&gt;
  2061. &lt;b&gt;Cannot connect to database master at SQL Server at &amp;lt;server_name&amp;gt;. The database might not exist, or the current user does not have permission to connect to it.&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
  2062. &lt;b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/b&gt;
  2063. Now if you have followed the recommended technet article to setup service accounts and permission, this error might be little misleading at the start. But root cause of the issue is completely valid.&lt;br /&gt;
  2064. &lt;br /&gt;
  2065. There is already a very detailed and helpful blog is available for you to follow to start troubleshooting:&lt;br /&gt;
  2066. &lt;a href=&quot;http://blogs.technet.com/b/tothesharepoint/archive/2011/01/12/troubleshooting-sharepoint-configuration-error-cannot-connect-to-database-master-at-server-name.aspx&quot;&gt;http://blogs.technet.com/b/tothesharepoint/archive/2011/01/12/troubleshooting-sharepoint-configuration-error-cannot-connect-to-database-master-at-server-name.aspx&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
  2067. &lt;br /&gt;
  2068. The possible causes of that error are as follows, first 2 are available in this blog, and the 3rd is the one i found and is the reason of this post:&lt;br /&gt;
  2069. &lt;br /&gt;
  2070. &lt;ol style=&quot;text-align: left;&quot;&gt;
  2071. &lt;li&gt;Permissions of the account used to configure has correct permission within SQL based on technet article.&lt;/li&gt;
  2072. &lt;li&gt;SQL Server in windows firewall required port, by default its 1433, is allowed to receive traffic from SharePoint application server.&lt;/li&gt;
  2073. &lt;li&gt;Verify that user through which you are running setup has got permissions to login to SQL Server. Yes, its very common in production or customer environments that you use different credentials to login to server than to the one you use to for deployment. Now either allow that user login permission to SQL Server by going to SQL Server and adding that user under logins within security of SQL Server. Or, run the setup as an administrator. In fact a good practice, is to always run the setup as an administrator to avoid such glitches.&lt;/li&gt;
  2074. &lt;/ol&gt;
  2075. &lt;br /&gt;
  2076. &lt;br /&gt;
  2077. Have a good day at work.&lt;br /&gt;
  2078. &lt;br /&gt;
  2079. &lt;br /&gt;

  2083. At the start of new year 2014, when i turn back and see 2013, it seems like it passed with the speed of light. But then this is how it meant to be, as they says &quot;time flies&quot; ....&lt;br /&gt;
  2084. &lt;br /&gt;
  2085. For me the year starts with some big fireworks display, as Dubai has plan to create a world record of biggest fireworks at new year. It was fun to witness such historic moment, at the same time a little guilt that this enormous amount of money could be used to something more useful.&lt;br /&gt;
  2086. &lt;br /&gt;
  2087. &lt;div class=&quot;separator&quot; style=&quot;clear: both; text-align: center;&quot;&gt;
  2088. &lt;a href=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjd4i277l_GMzPz1rZtjFQPqL4TpdKOz-xVNWLl5XGswAcVzSgGJSOmAiE1KP_eUYjXF2TJ4euHcV8xlC5eIXLqEdc5UZLby4IVwPcppfOz2wXlwUmq7IZk_9vjjkOiNsVwTxHq0d6s9Vw/s1600/2014-01-01+00.31.29.jpg&quot; imageanchor=&quot;1&quot; style=&quot;margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;&quot;&gt;&lt;img border=&quot;0&quot; height=&quot;180&quot; src=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjd4i277l_GMzPz1rZtjFQPqL4TpdKOz-xVNWLl5XGswAcVzSgGJSOmAiE1KP_eUYjXF2TJ4euHcV8xlC5eIXLqEdc5UZLby4IVwPcppfOz2wXlwUmq7IZk_9vjjkOiNsVwTxHq0d6s9Vw/s320/2014-01-01+00.31.29.jpg&quot; width=&quot;320&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  2089. &lt;br /&gt;
  2090. &lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
  2091. On a personal side of my Year 2013, i have had a great time with my family. My son turned 2, and i now can understand exactly the meaning of terrible 2 :) He is occupying most of my time, and i love every minute spending with him, no matter how much frustrated i could be due to worldly matters, he brings smile to my face and my source to stay motivated.&lt;/div&gt;
  2092. &lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
  2093. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  2094. &lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
  2095. Year 2013 was good for me in terms of learning, as Project 2013, online and on-premises versions, was released in this year, and i have got lot of new dimensions of a product to learn.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;
  2096. &lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
  2097. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  2098. &lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
  2099. Working as PPM/EPM specialist is my passion, and i got a chance to work with different aspects of PPM as a tool to help lay down project management methodology for organization. For some reason, i have got more chance to work on reporting part of a product, and i explored in detail the database level of a product. And here i learnt that how rite use of Top-Down and Bottom-Up approaches of reporting can help organizations to see their desired results.&lt;/div&gt;
  2100. &lt;br /&gt;
  2101. &lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
  2102. Despite of being occupied with work and personal stuff, i have tried to be on my mark when its about gaining knowledge or information about the world of SharePoint/Project Server. And for this i found twitter as my best friend :) i am following some great people from around the world to learn about fact paced technology evolution. Also with the passage of time technology is really coming to palms of our hands now, and i am relying more on my mobile device to stay connected instead of laptop.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;
  2103. &lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
  2104. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  2105. &lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
  2106. During year 2013, i have also tried to be active through my blog and forums as well. My blog stats reached near to 100,000, and i have got 150+ visitors each day from around the world. So thank you everyone for visiting my blog, and i try to share more during the coming year.&lt;/div&gt;
  2107. &lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
  2108. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  2109. &lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
  2110. Lets stay connected, keep visiting my blog, leave your comments, and have a great new Year 2014.&lt;/div&gt;

  2115. Little late though, but before the years end would like to share that Dec 2013 CU for Project Server 2013/2010 is available.&lt;br /&gt;
  2116. &lt;br /&gt;
  2117. You can find the details of Project Server 2013/2010 installation package here:&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href=&quot;http://blogs.technet.com/b/projectsupport/archive/2013/12/12/microsoft-project-server-2010-and-2013-december-cu-announcement.aspx&quot;&gt;http://blogs.technet.com/b/projectsupport/archive/2013/12/12/microsoft-project-server-2010-and-2013-december-cu-announcement.aspx&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
  2118. &lt;br /&gt;
  2119. &lt;br /&gt;
  2120. Note, as usual, that this should be applied to test environment first prior to production. Also Mar 2013 CU is been set as baseline for all Project Sever 2013 CUs, so install Mar 2013 CU first.&lt;br /&gt;
  2121. &lt;br /&gt;
  2122. Dec CU includes fix to one of the commonly encountered issue:&lt;br /&gt;
  2123. &lt;br /&gt;
  2124. &lt;ul style=&quot;background-color: white; color: #333333; margin: 16px 0px 16px 40px; padding: 0px; position: inherit; text-align: left;&quot;&gt;
  2125. &lt;li style=&quot;margin: 0px; padding: 0px; position: inherit;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: inherit;&quot;&gt;Assume that you change values for fields such as Project Owner and Name on a Project Detail Page (PDP) in Project Web App. When you save and refresh the page, the values are reverted to what they were before the change.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
  2126. &lt;/ul&gt;
  2127. &lt;div&gt;
  2128. &lt;span style=&quot;color: #333333;&quot;&gt;Also at last, try this PowerShell script to install CU for reduced installation time.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  2129. &lt;div&gt;
  2130. &lt;a href=&quot;http://gallery.technet.microsoft.com/scriptcenter/Server-2013-automate-and-833aeb0b&quot;&gt;http://gallery.technet.microsoft.com/scriptcenter/Server-2013-automate-and-833aeb0b&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  2131. &lt;div&gt;
  2132. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  2133. &lt;div&gt;
  2134. &lt;span style=&quot;color: #333333;&quot;&gt;And if its works for you, please do not forget to rate :)&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  2135. &lt;br /&gt;
  2136. &lt;br /&gt;
  2137. Happy patching and Happy New Year to everyone ....&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;

  2139. A quick note to share the Bulk Import tool issue i came across while working in NLB environment.&lt;br /&gt;
  2140. &lt;br /&gt;
  2141. Before i proceed, please note that Bulk Import tool was released along with the release of Project Server 2010 and to be used with Project Server 2010. Till date, i am not sure, if Bulk Import tool without modification will work with Project Server 2013. This issue, and its resolution, is for Project Server 2010 environment.&lt;br /&gt;
  2142. &lt;br /&gt;
  2143. Some time back Andrew Lavinsky had discuss Bulk Import tool feature in great detail through his &lt;a href=&quot;http://azlav.umtblog.com/&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;blog&lt;/a&gt;, a blog worth every minute of your time. Please go through these blog posts if you are interested to use Bulk Import tool:&lt;br /&gt;

  2148. &lt;/ul&gt;
  2149. My post is to highlight the following issue you may come across while trying validating Site URL:&lt;br /&gt;
  2150. &lt;br /&gt;
  2151. &lt;div style=&quot;text-align: center;&quot;&gt;
  2152. &lt;b&gt;The remote server returned a error: (401) Unauthorized.&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  2153. &lt;br /&gt;
  2154. &lt;div class=&quot;separator&quot; style=&quot;clear: both; text-align: center;&quot;&gt;
  2155. &lt;a href=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgoDhoQuFPmkce101DFc93SKX0qKzYYULu_T9kyzxr-yecEnXzoD4UrFCZw5VrqDVhUp1LeF0U87v722B8H0GMtl3TzYAKES_UXz9yF8jaAx8onym8Lh-TrydCL0A6l25wI1aFOODy5yo0/s1600/1.jpg&quot; imageanchor=&quot;1&quot; style=&quot;margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;&quot;&gt;&lt;img border=&quot;0&quot; height=&quot;176&quot; src=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgoDhoQuFPmkce101DFc93SKX0qKzYYULu_T9kyzxr-yecEnXzoD4UrFCZw5VrqDVhUp1LeF0U87v722B8H0GMtl3TzYAKES_UXz9yF8jaAx8onym8Lh-TrydCL0A6l25wI1aFOODy5yo0/s320/1.jpg&quot; width=&quot;320&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  2156. &lt;br /&gt;
  2157. &lt;div class=&quot;separator&quot; style=&quot;clear: both; text-align: center;&quot;&gt;
  2158. &lt;a href=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiw8Mx1j7YBtN25HNYEjI9ivu2ZOe6UazWKNS-PPmvFd9oJe90lKDEAJ4ZMXypxYiBjuPRknPzs3_exQ1PZGIlABWivxcX2tRPxvIuSVupvkjp-iRPWDBydLaWgaSXR-L5GlVsagsTOQmY/s1600/2.jpg&quot; imageanchor=&quot;1&quot; style=&quot;margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;&quot;&gt;&lt;img border=&quot;0&quot; height=&quot;121&quot; src=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiw8Mx1j7YBtN25HNYEjI9ivu2ZOe6UazWKNS-PPmvFd9oJe90lKDEAJ4ZMXypxYiBjuPRknPzs3_exQ1PZGIlABWivxcX2tRPxvIuSVupvkjp-iRPWDBydLaWgaSXR-L5GlVsagsTOQmY/s320/2.jpg&quot; width=&quot;320&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  2159. &lt;div class=&quot;separator&quot; style=&quot;clear: both; text-align: center;&quot;&gt;
  2160. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  2161. &lt;div class=&quot;separator&quot; style=&quot;clear: both; text-align: left;&quot;&gt;
  2162. Now if you are in NLB environment, and you are accessing your PWA using NLB URL, you will come across an error as mentioned above.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;
  2163. &lt;div class=&quot;separator&quot; style=&quot;clear: both; text-align: left;&quot;&gt;
  2164. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  2165. &lt;div class=&quot;separator&quot; style=&quot;clear: both; text-align: left;&quot;&gt;
  2166. Resolution is quite simple, though it took me a while to figure it out, you need to use your original PWA URL to access your PWA. Open Bulk Import tool now, ensure that you URL you are entering in also based on original PWA URL, click validate - and this time it work.&lt;/div&gt;
  2167. &lt;div class=&quot;separator&quot; style=&quot;clear: both; text-align: left;&quot;&gt;
  2168. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  2169. &lt;div class=&quot;separator&quot; style=&quot;clear: both; text-align: left;&quot;&gt;
  2170. Hopefully this will help to some out there - happy importing new projects for analysis as a new year is not far away :)&lt;/div&gt;
  2171. &lt;/div&gt;

  2173. With the release of Project Server 2013 and then release of periodic Cumulative Updates, one evident factor i have experienced is the size of cumulative updates of project server, and the time they requires to be installed.&lt;br /&gt;
  2174. &lt;br /&gt;
  2175. Just before this blog, a normal time i have experienced to install any CU on Project Server 2013 servers, were some where between 4-5 hrs and some time more than that as well :( and this duration is for 1 CU only, imagine if you have to install more than 1 CU which is common as March CU is a pre-requiste for any new CUs to be installed.&lt;br /&gt;
  2176. &lt;br /&gt;
  2177. Which means, that either you plan to start the installation at day end, so that next day when you will resume work you only have to wait for configuration wizard to be finished&lt;br /&gt;
  2178. &lt;div style=&quot;text-align: left;&quot;&gt;
  2179. OR&lt;/div&gt;
  2180. you can sit idle and stare at that progress bar on your screen, moving as slowly as any slowest turtle exist on planet earth, and curse yourself that why have you started the installation at this time.&lt;br /&gt;
  2181. &lt;br /&gt;
  2182. I have been look for ways to improvise the duration of installation of CU, and the good news is that there is a way to install the same CU with the duration time of between 30-45 mins ... yea you are reading it rite, its &lt;b&gt;mins &lt;/b&gt;NOT &lt;b&gt;hrs&lt;/b&gt; :)&lt;br /&gt;
  2183. &lt;br /&gt;
  2184. Credit for this goes to &lt;a href=&quot;http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/profile/russ%20maxwell/&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;Russ Maxwell&lt;/a&gt;, who brought this solution forward. And i am re-posting this good to spread to Project server community, because its equally painful for us as well :)&lt;br /&gt;
  2185. &lt;br /&gt;
  2186. From the start the suspect in this whole case, i.e. why CU takes so long, are the SharePoint services running on the server such as App fabric/search etc. As they consume most part of CPU, and push windows installer to a lower priority to consume CPU time.&lt;br /&gt;
  2187. &lt;br /&gt;
  2188. So here is a Power-Shell script to automate and speed up the installation process by disabling SharePoint server services gracefully. The scirpts performs the following steps:&lt;br /&gt;
  2189. &lt;blockquote style=&quot;background-color: white; line-height: 18.162500381469727px; text-align: left;&quot;&gt;
  2190. &lt;br /&gt;
  2191. &lt;ol style=&quot;text-align: left;&quot;&gt;
  2192. &lt;li&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: inherit; line-height: 18.162500381469727px;&quot;&gt;Disable the IISAdmin and SPTimerV4 service&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
