URL: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/office/jj163494.aspx
As in the blog project Event is set to when project is submitted, we tried a lot to submit the project but submit button was grayed out and unable to do this, then we changed to event
when project is committed from that above mentioned errors are occurred. Moreover we have tried to make simpler workflow but same result.
Detailed Description:
Installation of Workflow Manager 1.0
Installation of Service Bus and CU1
Start App Management Service (Also Configured in Managed Service App)
Start User Profile Service (Also Configured in Managed Service App)                      
Run the full user profile sync and Completed
Created the workflow using domain user account and assigned him proper permission
Thanks in Advance

Answer 1

If the workflow initiator does not have write access to the hidden Workflow History List, the same error happens.
To solve the issue, simply open the hidden list permission (through SharePoint Designer>All Files>Lists, for example) and make sure to have your potential initiators contribute rights. The list defaultly inherits the site's permissions.
