Project Identifier is invalid when contains only numbers
Added by Vit Jonas almost 14 years ago.
Updated almost 14 years ago.
Description
When Project Identifier contains only numbers Redmine reports: Identifier is invalid. But when one other character mentioned in help text is added (eg '-') then it is OK.
So I think that either adjust help text to state at least one other character to numbers must be present or adjust Project Identifier check.
MySQL 5.0.51a
Ruby 1.8.7
Rails distributed with Redmine package
- Status changed from New to Closed
- Resolution set to Wont fix
It's not possible to allow numeric-only identifiers, because certain parts of redmine search for the database ID if passed a numeric parameter and for the identifier if passed a string parameter.
Could you please tell me which documentation you are referring too? If it's in the wiki here, you should probably also be able to edit it yourself.
Its the text in New Project form:
Length between 1 and 20 characters. Only lower case letters (a-z), numbers and dashes are allowed.
No indication that one chracter except digits must be present

Ok, I now see what you mean. Are you a native speaker and could change "Only lower case letters (a-z), numbers and dashes are allowed." so that it says that numbers-only isn't allowed?
