Issue/Introduction

Cannot open a project from Clarity. A project dialog box opens in Microsoft Project (MSP) with a list of projects to select from, instead of opening the project in MSP. 

  • If you click on the project from the list of projects, the project still does not open 
  • If you create the baseline in MSP instead, the baseline doesn't save back to Clarity even though you get a save successful message.

Users may also see one or both of the following errors:

  • "We're sorry. There seems to be a problem with this file that keeps us from opening it. Please try using a backup copy if available."
  • “These tasks can’t be linked because they’re already linked through another task chain.”

Cause

This issue is caused by: DE51415. Issue is due to an issue when baselining certain projects. 

Environment

MSP New Driver

Release : 15.5.1, 15.6, 15.6.1, 15.7

Component : MSP

Resolution

This issue (DE51415) is fixed in 15.71.  Important: The MSP Interface will also need to be upgraded on the workstations in order to see the fix. 

Workaround: Delete any recently added baselines from the project in Clarity, then the project will be able to opened in MSP
