401.2 Unauthorized error when trying to access SharedServices for calling PSI extensions using impersonation

Question

I am working on a VS2010 machine to develop web parts for a MOSS 2007 server that has MS Project Server installed on it. I am trying to get a sample Impersonation application running on it. I am following this article.

However, when I try to connect to SSP, it throws an error as 401.2 Unauthorized. I am working on a VPC with Admin login and Admin right to Sharepoint, MS Project Server. Please let me know what wrong I am doing.

Answer 1

Either You need to add the yourself (or username you logged in with) to the SSP which hosts Project Web Access, or the SSP is not configured to process the user's account.

Try either or both step 1 or 2.

Step 1

Add the user to the SSP site with contribute access.

Step 2

To enable the SSP to process accounts, run the following stsadm Command.

stsadm -o editssp -title [SSPName] -setaccounts [accounts to add]

Answer 2

SharePoint 2007 and MOSS 2007 are built on ASP.Net 2.0. The default ASP.NET version of VS2010 is 4. So maybe there's the problem.

If the problem is in your code, try to add a this (if you use c#)

try
{
  //Your code
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
  //Log error
}
