Why do all dates appear as Jan 01, 1970

[claudio]

Hello

I've read the threads regarding wrong execution date but am unable to get the date correct - my execution date are all Jan 01, 1970

Could be your PHP config?
in functions.php - see line 171 it uses this:
strftime("%H:%M:%S ",$fire_time)

more here:
http://uk3.php.net/manual/en/function.strftime.php

But I couldn't see an answer there.

Can anyone provide me with an answer to this?

Thanks in advance,

CLaudio

Hi,

I am unable to re-create the error, sorry.

It only appears to happen with some server setups. It will be related to the Unix Time stamp:
http://uk2.php.net/manual/en/function.time.php

see line 28 of:
\phpjobscheduler\pjsfiles\phpjobscheduler.php

If you find out any information please let others know
(unlike other previous selfish posters....

It seems to set the date to 1970 if you modify the task.

Delete it, then add it again, all is OK

Cheers Davo!

I have added that to the list of jobs for next update.

Hi guys

Long time no speak.
Just added jobscheduler to new site - WIndows server. Doesn't appear to change the time after firing. In fact, if I modify the time interval it seems to take the reference from initial start.

What have I missed?

Cheers

Who are you?
Oh, yes I remember... welcome back, not been around for.. how long???

Good to hear from you anyhow

I only develop and test for Linux, so not sure about your Windows server.

Let me konw a bit more about it and I will see what I can see/do.

Hi Dave

As a first step I have installed the lates version - although it couldn't create a config file.

I have now added revised files to be triggered and will see how that goes.
Failing that, I will upload the whole thing to Linux server.
Not due to fire now until Sat so will catch up on Monday.

Cheers

No problem, have a good weekend )))

All systems go. Fired last night and is scheduled to fire again in two days.
So all is good.

Have a great weekend.

Scheduled tasks in "Time/date of next execution" is 01.01.1970.

Has anyone found an answer to this problem?

The error only occurs when you moidfy an job. Just delete the job and re-add it and it will be fine.

It is on the list to be corrected next upgrade along with:
- add code to ensure each scheduled script runs JUST ONCE.
- Add minutes

All the best

Dave.
