Issue Creating new project

[chiragksharma]

Describe the bug
When attempting to create a new project by entering all the necessary details, an error message is displayed, indicating an issue with running the evaluation. The error seems to stem from an internal binding error related to character encoding.

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Go to the 'New Project' creation page.
2. Enter all the required details into the project form.
3. Click on 'Create Project'.
4. The screen will be stuck on "Please wait while we process your data".
5. Open the console terminal and see the network tab. You can see the following error.

{
    "detail": "Error running the evaluation: BindingsError: \"InternalError(TapeError) at character 0 ('ï')\""
}

Expected behavior
I expected the project to be created successfully without any errors after submitting the required details.
