Team Foundation Server 2012 and Project Server 2010 Integration
Following last week’s RTM announcements for Windows 8 and Visual Studio 2012 I have been upgrading a few PCs including one of my favorite demo virtual machine: Visual Studio Team Foundation Server 2010 and Project Server 2010 Demo Virtual Machine (patience the bits will be out soon!) After a quick upgrade of my host demo laptop to Windows Server 2012 Standard, I upgraded my VM from Microsoft Visual Studio Team Foundation Server 2010 SP1 to Microsoft Visual Studio Team Foundation Server 2012. High level procedure followed: un-install TFS 2010 un-install TFS Project Server 2010 Feature Pack install SQL 2008 R2 Service Pack 2 ( pre-requisite for TFS 2012 ) install TFS 2012 and upgrade existing server install TFS Project Server Extension 2012, more info here: Updating an Existing Installation and Version Compatibility Yes no more separate Feature Pack to download! As you can see on the picture above there is a “ Project Server Extensions ” folder at the root of the installer. An voila after a few minutes the TFS & Project Server demo VM is fully functional (see below) with the latest Visual Studio 2012 version! Good job product team If you have any questions please leverage this dedicated Forum: Team Foundation Server and Project Server Integration PS: yes TFS 2012 also integrates with Project Server 2013 Preview and that will be the topic of another post in the future…

PSVR2010: QueueCreateProject using an Enterprise Project Type
An interesting question came in this week from a couple of different directions – though may have started with the same customer – but I learned something new so thought it worthwhile to share. The problem was that when the PSI Project Web Service method QueueCreateProject is used with an Enterprise Project Type (EPT) and that EPT is set to use a project plan template, then the create was failing with an EnterpriseProjectTypeInvalidData error. To be honest I didn’t even realize you could use an EPT with that method – so started researching… I could certainly see that we have a property you can set in the dataset you pass to that method – ProjectDataSet..::..ProjectRow..::..ENTERPRISE_PROJECT_TYPE_UID Property – but could also envisage that some of the other contents of the dataset migth conflict with the data in the other tables in the dataset – so this might cause the failure. Thanks Bia for coming up with the definitive answer! You can use the EPT UID (which you find by drilling in to the specific EPT on the Enterprise Project Types page of Server Settings, then looking at the System Identification Data at the foot of the page) BUT you must ensure a couple of things. You CANNOT have any of the following tables existing in the project dataset – · Task TaskCustomFields ProjectResource ProjectResourceCustomFields Assignment AssignmentCustomFields Dependency In the Project Row of the dataset you must ONLY set the following columns PROJ_UID PROJ_NAME WPROJ_DESCRIPTION PROJ_INFO_START_DATE ProjectOwnerID ENTERPRISE_PROJECT_TYPE_UID PROJ_TYPE PROJ_OPT_CURRENCY_CODE PROJ_OPT_CURRENCY_SYMBOL PROJ_OPT_CURRENCY_DIGITS PROJ_OPT_CURRENCY_POSITION And the error you will get if you don’t follow these rules is: w3wp.exe (0x0604) 0x0628 SharePoint Foundation Runtime tkau Unexpected System.Web.Services.Protocols.SoapException: ProjectServerError(s) LastError=EnterpriseProjectTypeInvalidData Instructions: Pass this into PSClientError constructor to access all error information at System.Web.Services.Protocols.SoapHttpClientProtocol.ReadResponse(… Thanks too to Klaudia and Sebastian for raising the issue.
Project 2013 Preview SDK and related resources
The Project 2013 Preview SDK download is published. The conceptual, how-to, and reference documentation in the download closely matches the Project 2013 developer documentation online content published on MSDN. In addition, the download also contains: Ten complete code solutions, including two task pane apps for Project, six client-side object model (CSOM) solutions, and two solutions for querying the ProjectData service for reporting. DLLs and a license for redistribution of the three Project Server CSOM assemblies, JavaScript files for the CSOM, and the Microsoft.Office.Project.Server.Library assembly. Note: Project CSOM solutions also require the redistributable DLLs for the SharePoint 2013 CSOM, which are at SharePoint Server 2013 Client Components SDK . Intellisense files for the PSI and CSOM, source code for creating a PSI proxy assembly, and instructions on how to update the PSI proxy files. XML schemas for the Project client, AppProvisioning, and the Statusing PSI. The top-level online landing page for the Project SDK is Project for developers ( https://msdn.microsoft.com/project ). For additional Project-related SDK content, see Office for developers ( https://msdn.microsoft.com/office ), SharePoint for developers ( https://msdn.microsoft.com/sharepoint ), and Build apps for Office and SharePoint ( https://msdn.microsoft.com/office/apps/ ). The two articles on Task pane apps for Project are in the Apps for Office and SharePoint SDK , and the JavaScript API for Office reference includes information specific for Project, the ProjectDocument object with eleven methods and three events, and four enumerations for Project. The downloads for those SDKs will be published soon. Want to try it out?
