Issue Summary

I tried to test the playlist creation, and the date is reading 12/31/1969 rather than today's date! I haven't had this problem anywhere else on my site. Is it the station module, or could it be something else? I can;t figure it out. I tried enabling User-configurable time zones in the date module and resubmitted the form. Then I disabled them and resubmitted the form. Both cases same result? Thoughts?

I should add that directly beneath the playlist title, the posting line reads: Submitted by USER on Thu, 06/04/2009 - 13:18
Very Curious.

Not sure of the cause, will look into it, but rest assured that this result is common: Unix time.

#3

sounds like the date value didn't get saved and as tim pointed out, 0 would be recognized as the jan 1, 1970 which—after subtracting the timezone—is 1969. does this happen for all new playlists? were you setting a date on them?

Additionally, the playlist doesn't seem to be attached to the show it is affiliated with. One would assume a link to it would be viewable on the DJ's program page, or on their profile page, but no, nothing.

Ugh, never mind, delete that last comment.

I was not setting a date on them, no. I wanted to have the date automatically inserted. I have since enabled date setting, which I assume is just as well in case the DJ posts the Playlist before or after their scheduled show day.

#7

Yeah the date should be set to the current date. I might need to update the field definition that is getting created at install time. I'll give it a look when I've got a little more time.

Humm, I just checked on my clean installation and the date has a default value. Perhaps the field wasn't created correctly on your site?

#9

I've got the same issue going on here...

And I am running the 6.x-2.x-dev version. Relatively clean install.

Forgot to attach this to the last post - structure of the station_playlist_track table. Missing a date stamp field? I don't know what the table layout is and I couldn't find anywhere in the code that referenced saving a datestamp.

refreshingapathy, it's actually handled by the date module now so it'll be in one of the CCK tables.

#12

Looking at content_type_station_playlist I had zero rows.

Reinstall with devel module seemed to clear things up, my test playlists now have the correct date.

okay i'm going to call this fixed unless someone else has more details on how to replicate this.

#14

I think this was probably just an issue with a bad install or somesuch... I've installed the module a few more times on dev sites and had no problems with it.
