“An unexpected error has occurred” error on accessing PWA (Project Web Access)

Question

I installed Microsoft Office Sharepoint 2007 SP1 using SQL Server 2008 R2 for DB and then installed Microsoft Office Project Server 2007.

I made a web application to host the SSP and another one to host the PWA (Project Web Access) and the PWA was provisioned as: "http://server/pwa"

when i click on this link it gives me an error "An unexpected error has occurred"

i tried to restart the project service and to iisreset but it wasn't solved..

I need to finish this ASAP for our administration :-/

Thanks in advance..

Answer 1

I found the solution:

I had to change the following in web.config :

<configuration>
<system.web>
<customErrors mode="off" />

and:

<configuration>
<SharePoint>
<SafeMode CallStack="true"

Then the problem appeared to be about the Proxy authentication and i solved it by adding the following inside System.Net

 <defaultProxy>
      <proxy usesystemdefault = "true" bypassonlocal = "true" />
 </defaultProxy>

and make sure ur IE proxy settings are correct ..
