  • GenerateAllFiles dates off?

    From Björn Wiberg@2:201/137 to g00r00 on Sun May 7 19:14:11 2023
    Hello g00r00!

    I just noticed that the file dates in my GenerateAllFiles listing appear to be off, e.g.:

    Filename Size Date Description ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- eicar.com
    68 08/13/28 Harmless EICAR anti-virus test file
    eicar.com.txt
    68 08/13/28 Harmless EICAR anti-virus test file
    (with double extension)
    /../

    An actual file has these stats:

    File: eicar.com.txt
    Size: 68 Blocks: 8 IO Block: 1048576 regular file Device: 30h/48d Inode: 2468411 Links: 1
    Access: (0660/-rw-rw----) Uid: ( 1002/ bbs) Gid: ( 1002/ bbs) Access: 2023-03-10 20:27:24.347045200 +0100
    Modify: 2021-08-07 08:40:24.517976500 +0200
    Change: 2021-08-07 08:40:24.517976500 +0200
    Birth: 2021-08-06 22:02:09.559359100 +0200

    ...i.e. nowhere near 2028.

    Files also display correctly in the file listing inside Mystic:

    Ŀ File Listing (00 tagged) Uploads
    01 eicar.com FAILED 08/06/21
    Harmless EICAR anti-virus test file

    02 eicar.com.txt FAILED 08/06/21
    Harmless EICAR anti-virus test file
    (with double extension)
    Uploader: Zip

    ...as well as in the file list generated from the flist menu (A = (FF)
    Download filelist with Data: /allgroups):

    .---------.
    | Uploads |
    `---------' .-----------------------------------------------------------------------------. | File Size Date Description | `-----------------------------------------------------------------------------' eicar.com
    `- 68 08/06/21 Harmless EICAR anti-virus test file
    eicar.com.txt
    `- 68 08/06/21 Harmless EICAR anti-virus test file
    (with double extension)

    (My weekly PackFileBases maintenance INI has check_files = true and remove_missing = false, by the way, but I'm not sure whether that auto-updates any file stats.)

    Do you have any idea what could be causing these strange dates only in the GenerateAllFiles listing?

    Thanks in advance!

    Best regards
    Bjrn

    I just noticed that the file dates in my GenerateAllFiles listing appear to be off, e.g.:

    Thank you I've fixed that in the next build. I will probably be slow to respond or build much until the end of June, but I'll see and fix what I can between now and then!
