The aim was to develop a project management tool with only the most essential features. It must be simple to install, simple to maintain, with less data entry requirement, good looking and makes sharing of secure information as easy as possible. Initially I searched for some tools but nothing was fitting my requirements. Either they were too detailed or too simple. So I started my own custom solution. At some point I thought it’s useful to anybody who is in search of a project management tool with the above mentioned requirements.

 
Feature
  • ASP and MS access The software is written in asp that means the source is available to you for your own customization. And the database is an mdb so easy to create and maintain.
  • Multiple project management A lot of projects can be hosted simultaneously in the same web server with the same database. From ground up the design was done with multiple projects in mind.
  • Task management- All the important tasks that are to be tracked can be entered and tracked.
  • Bug tracking- The bug tracking is a very important thing in any project management. It provides a simple but powerful bug tracking.
  • Blog - Every team member should know what is happening in the project. The project blog helps the team members know all the details and important milestones.
  • Resource management - Resource details can be entered and they can be allotted to different projects with different roles. All users can get the resource details at any point in time with any web client.
  • Document sharing - All the project documents can be shared just by dropping the files in the mentioned folder. The software takes care of automatically generating the list on its own. No need to enter anything in the database.
  • Screenshot publishing - Publish the project screenshots by copying the thumb nail and the original file in the mentioned locations. After some time you will be happy to see the progress.
  • Security- All users need to login with there credentials. Here again no complex user privileges to maintain. Every user inside the project has full rights.
  • Guest access- You can add the guest account to the project. A guest has all the access but cannot do any modification to the data.

Installation
  1. Unzip this zip into your iis webroot that is "c:\inetpub\wwwroot".
  2. Copy the database<webroot>\pm123\data\prev.mdb to <webroot>\pm123\data\project.mdb. So that it does not get overwritten while doing any upgrade.
  3. Create a System DSN with name prev and link <webroot>\pm123\data\project.mdb.
  4. Navigate to the admin page. http://<servername>/pm123/admin.asp
    1. Login with user: admin password: admin123
    2. Create a project.
    3. Create project related folders & files.
    4. Add the developers and resources.
    5. Map the resources to your project.
  5. Now you are ready.
  6. Goto the login page http://<servername>/pm123/default.asp

Troubleshooting
  1. If you get "unspecified error" or "The query should be an updateable query" then check whether the anonymous IIS user has read,write and full control for this mdb file.
  2. Asp is rendered in full source. Check whether the server has asp enabled.
  3. For other problems report them in the project page.
