However, when adding an issue, it will not throw an error AND it will not show up as an issue. I have double checked all permissions in workflow. I am an admin - all are checked.

database version: Mysql - Server version: 5.1.52

Steps to recreate:
sign into redmine
create new issue
complete all fields
hit save

redmine returns to project's issue list. No error is returned - Issue is not included/created.

check production log - no error

Plugins installed:
stuff to do
issues_backlighter
sealth_mode
time_tracker
timesheet

steps taken:
used myphpadmin to review database - issue is not created.
checked permission of user - appropriate.
tested with different trackers - having same results - none created
resinstalled redmine 1.1.0 and migrated all plugins and db per instructions - same issue.
punched self in face.

Please help.
