Description

Hi,

I've bee having problems setting up a project to allow ticket-creation via email for unknown users. The rake task to fetch the email is working correctly - it creates the unknown user if required just fine.

However, I can't seem to allow that new user (which wouldn't be a member of any projects) to create issues - even though the Create Issues permission is granted to the Non-Member role.

In our case, these users do not have access to our Redmine installation's web site at all - we just want issues to be created via email from those users.

I've still not had any luck getting this to work correctly -- are others using the Create Issue/Non-Member permission without any problem? Is there anything beyond granting the Create Issue permission to Non-Member that I need to do?

Thanks,
Chris

  • Status changed from New to Closed
  • Resolution set to Cant reproduce
There are working tests for this use case. So make sure:
  • You specify a default project when you invoke the rake task (see RedmineReceivingEmails)
  • The target project is public
  • There is no required custom field on issues

If you set up Redmine as an OTRS-like public ticketing system, the target project typically is not public, to avoid people seeing each others tickets.
In my opinion it would be nice if for this use case either there is a third type of projects between public and private OR that "create issues" for non member simply work for closed projects, too!
Any hint for a place where one could patch Redmine trunk to achieve this now?
