Trying to Create a new milestone

[bbolt@…]

In Admin>Milestones I added a milestone name and date and clicked submit.

I got: Trac detected an internal error: Python Traceback

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/lib/python2.3/site-packages/trac/web/main.py", line 387, in dispatch_request
    dispatcher.dispatch(req)

ValueError: 03/07/2008 is not a known date format.

We have a new milestone coming up and are unable to assign tickets to users because we cannot add the milestone to our trac.

Rules to submit a new ticket:

1. Check for duplicates (this issue has already been reported)
2. Always specify the Trac version you use (you left the version field empty)
3. Please be faire with the severity level (this is not a blocker issue, it does not prevent Trac from running)

About this issue: have you checked that the format of the date you submitted matched the specified format, which usually appears as a hint close to the date field?
