Description

I'm trying to create a new user, with my current email address. Don't know
why, I got the message "Email has already been taken". I have checked, actually there is only one user "admin" available. And it's email address is
"".

Does anyone know, how can I solve this problem?

Thanks in advance!

+1. I had the same issue, but it was confusion on my part. Not a defect, but perhaps the situation could be better signposted.

I had created a user successfully already, but wasn't seeing it under 'users' when logged in as the admin, because it hadn't been approved. I didn't know to look under a separate list of "registered" users, and that naming still doesn't strike me as particularly intuitive.

How about when an admin user goes to http://redmine.together4change.org/users they get a text notification and link saying something like "There are new users awaiting admin approval".

We are getting exactly same error while updating User detail using redmine Java REST API.
