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:

1. Click Start, Click Run, type cmd and then click OK.
2. Type the following command line and then press Enter:
   Proxycfg -d -p * "<local>;servername of WSS;FQDN of WSS;ipaddress of WSS"
3. 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.
