Ever seen this before?
I exclaimed many WTFs! when I saw this, and I saw it over and over again. This is the error you get when you try to configure Sharepoint Services within Project Web access with a fully qualified domain name (FQDN). So instead of using the machine name or localhost you try to use something like projectserver.domain.com.
I didn’t know that was the reason but I found another blog for a similar issue and got it worked out. Here is that blog.
SYSTEM ERROR: 0x80004005 when you try to save or publish a project in Microsoft Project Server 2003
When you try to save or publish a project to Microsoft Project Server 2003, you experience the following symptoms:
- You receive the following error message in the Microsoft Spooler Error Message dialog box: System Error: 0x80004005
- The Microsoft Windows Sharepoint Site is not automatically created for the project.
Cause:
This issue occurs when you try to use a fully qualified domain name (FQDN) to connect to the Microsoft Office Project Server 2003 Web site. For example, it occurs when you use a FQDN instead of a host name, such as: http://projects.projsvr2003.domain.com instead of http://<hostname>
-
Use a host name such as http://<hostname>/projectserver to connect to the ProjectServer website.
-
Use the WinHTTP Default Proxy Configuration Tool to add the FQDN to the Bypass list.
To add the FQDN to the Bypass list, follow these steps:
-
Click Start, Click Run, type cmd and then click OK.
-
Type the following command line and then press Enter:
Proxycfg -d -p * “<local>;servername of WSS;FQDN of WSS;ipaddress of WSS” -
At the command prompt, type iisreset and then press Enter. The iisreset command stops and restarts the Microsoft Internet Information Services (IIS) so that the new settings will be applied.
