Thanks for reporting the problem and for sharing the code.

I was able to reproduce the problem.
Here are the steps to reproduce the problem.

  • bundle exec rake db:fixtures:load
  • Log in as admin user
  • Custom fields » Projects » New custom field
    • ✓ required
    • ✓ to these roles only: Manager
  • Log in as jsmith user
  • New project => save
  • The error message "Test cannot be blank" is displayed.

In https://github.com/redmine/redmine/pull/135 , a pull request is proposed to skip the validation of required custom fields when a user who does not have permission to see them tries to create a project.
The same mechanism is already implemented in Issue, so I think it's good to add this pull request code to Redmine.
