Consider the following scenario in Microsoft Office Project 2007 and in Microsoft Dynamics SL:
-
You open a project in the Project Maintenance (PA.PRJ.00) screen and then click to select the Microsoft Project check box.
-
You open Project 2007 to view the project that you tried to integrate.
In this scenario, you notice that the project was not integrated from Microsoft Dynamics SL into Project 2007. Additionally, you receive the following error message in MSDSLEventlog:
Project Web Service: Error: QueueCreateProject Unable to connect to the remote server

Then, you receive the following error message:
