I’ll get this information into a KB article too, and I’ll also try and keep this posting up to date as we release each cumulative update or service pack for Project Server 2010 and Project 2010. If you are not reading this at http://blogs.msdn.com/b/brismith then you may be reading out of date information!
The version can be different depending where you look, so I will tabulate the version you will see in Control Panel, Programs and Features (binary version) or on the individual binaries – which is also listed in Central Administration under Upgrade and Migration, Check Product and Patch Installation Status – and also the version you will see in the databases. I’ll mention too various other components that might be of interest. I have listed just the Project Server KB for the CU – but the DB Version noted for SharePoint assumes that either a SharePoint Server or Server rollup has also been installed.
As a reminder to get the version from the database there is a table in each SharePoint DB, and each Project Server DB called Versions so a query such as the following will return the current version, which will be the highest Version next to the NULL GUID.
USE <PROJECTSERVERNAME>_Published
SELECT * FROM Versions WHERE VersionId ='00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000'
SELECT * FROM Versions
WHERE VersionId ='00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000'

This is a very useful blog post! It has saved me hours, thanks for maintaining it.
Please update with SP1 and June CU info. Thanks.
Yes, very useful -- Brian your entire blog is invaluable!
Is there an updated version, or can this be updated, through the most recent CUs/hotfixes (2012)?
Also, is there a listing for Project Pro 2007 (for those still making do on '07)?
Thank you immensely
Thanks JimB - I'll try and find time to get this updated. One of my collegues has both 2007 and 2010 - blogs.technet.com/.../project-server-2007-project-2007-relacion-de-versiones-junio-2012.aspx for 2007 and blogs.technet.com/.../project-server-2010-project-2010-relacion-de-versiones-junio-2010.aspx for 2010. In Spanish but easy to follow the dates and versions.
Best regards,
Brian.
As if invaluable info isn't enough, near immediate replies too -- you might want to hold back a little, Bri, skeptical readers (like me!) might begin believing something's too good to be true! d^¿^b
Cheers, and Muchas gracias! ;-j
:). Thought about leaving this reply 'til tomorrow - but I'd probably forget...
Ha! That's crackin me up, and crack-a-lackin too.. props!
