Accessing account/show/4 results in a 500 internal server error

Hi,

Some day in april we downloaded and installed redmine-0.8.3.zip from rubyforge.
Upgraded a Redmine 0.8.2 database with no errors as far as I can recall.
We haven't noticed any problems except lately when trying to view user profiles.
Accessing http://hostnamehere/account/show/4 results in a 500 internal server error. (You may change 4 with any valid user profile id)

Even though I think the rake db:migrate worked it seems there are some database issue, maybe with a custom field.

So the question is how to fix this? I'm not much into Ruby or MySql or Redmine... yet.

Redmine runns on Mongrel fronted by Apache 2.2 and Mysql 5.0 as database in a windows 2003 environment.

Regards
Simon

RE: Accessing account/show/4 results in a 500 internal server error - Added by Simon Z over 15 years ago

Just found that we have one boolean custom field and it seems the user profile of users created after this field where added can be viewed. Seems like a bug to me.

Simon

Simon, I recently ran into this same issue - or at least one with the same cause. I've posted details and a patch at #3705: http://www.redmine.org/issues/3705.

If you cannot wait for that to be applied, this workaround might work for you:

Go to your Project administration area under Administration > Projects
Visit each project that has the above issue.
Click "Save".

This should fix the above issue - or rather, it did for me.

Thank you Jakob!
The "resaving" workaround works. But in the case of a user I have to change something on the user profile before saving.
I'll try you patch, don't want to view, change and save more than 100 users.

Regards
Simon
