Description

Hi

I'm not sure if this is a bug, but I have failed to find this problem in your bug tracker or on the forum.

The time "sent" displayed on a fax was out due to the timezone not being taken into account. We corrected this by changing "date" to "date -R" in fax-process.pl as follows: 

--- fax-process.pl.0    2007-03-09 12:16:38.000000000 +0200
+++ fax-process.pl      2007-10-17 13:13:41.000000000 +0200

 # And that's pretty much all the hard work done. Now we just create the
 # headers for the MIME encapsulation:
 my $boundary = '------FREEPBX_FAX_MAIL:';
-my $dtime = `date`;
+my $dtime = `date -R`;
 chomp $dtime;
 my @chrs = ('0' .. '9', 'A' .. 'Z', 'a' .. 'z');
 foreach (0..16) { $boundary .= $chrs[rand (scalar @chrs)]; }

Regards sgmeunier

  • confirmation changed from Unreviewed to Need Feedback.

if your system is properly setup the date command should be delivering the proper date. What was your setting it to? Was it different then if you just type date a the command line?

  • status changed from new to closed.
  • resolution set to worksforme.

having tested this both ways and having received no feedback, closing as invalid. I don't want to fix it if it seems to work fine on a properly configured system. If there is a valid argument that can be pointed out, please update this ticket and we will review.
