Emancipate yourself from mental slavery; none but ourselves can free our minds. – Nesta

At a client recently, I noticed that their Project Server implementation is having some issues with the edit user page throwing errors for certain users.  I will try to get a screenshot later and marry it up with this post.

After some research, we were able to determine that one of the Project Server databases had those users checked out to a fictitious users (0000-000000-0000), instead of one of the two normal values, NULL or an actual GUID representing the user that had that record checked out.

We are currently working on a long-term fix, but the quickest way we found to fix the problem immediately was running a simple SQL Query against the Project Server_Production database.

Go to the MSP_RESOURCES table and then run the following SQL:

UPDATE MSP_RESOURCES

SET RES_CHECKOUTBY = NULL

WHERE RES_CHECKOUTBY IS NOT NULL

Once I have an update on how to fix this long-term, I will repost...
