Custom Field causes 500 internal server error when adding tracker items
0%
Description
I added a custom field and applied it to a single tracker (I have multiple trackers in my redmine installation). It was a text field, no min/max, regex, or default value. When I subsequently added items to that tracker, the system would throw a '500 internal server error'. When I looked in the log to see what was going on, and saw where in the issues_controller it was happening, I realized it might be the custom field, so I removed it, and now the tracker works again.
FYI, not sure it matters but I'm running redmine under lighttpd/fastcgi.
I grabbed the following from the log while doing some troubleshooting:

- Category set to Custom fields
- Status changed from New to Resolved
- Target version set to 0.7
- Resolution set to Fixed
I've committed a fix in trunk (r1317) to prevent this error but it shouldn't occur if the custom fields were properly submitted when creating the issue.
I have a few questions:- Do you see the custom field when filling the issue form ?
- Is the issue form updated when you change the tracker on the issue form (an ajax request should happen) ?
- Is your custom field specific to a tracker ?

Upgrading to rails 1.2.6 will solve this problem.
