Error when added date to roadmap version

Added by Jason Morris over 16 years ago

I am running redmine 0.7.3 on windows against sql server 2005.

I am trying to enter the date on my versions, but I am either getting an error or it is not persisting into the database.

I have tried

08-01-2008 results in an error: « Date » is not a valid date
2008-08-01 results in an error: « Date » is not a valid date (this is also the format the calendar puts into the textbox)

Here is a snippet from the log file, which looks normal...to me anyways.

Anyone else seeing this? Anyone have an idea what might be going wrong?

Think I've come across this as well, but I've not had time to look at it yet. I'm also running against Sql Server 2005.

I've had issues with the calendar / gantt chart views (do you get this?) which stem from the fact that Sql 2005 doesn't have a native Date type and everything gets cast to a DateTime. I'm wondering if this is something similar.

I am having a problem with the gnatt chart, but I was thinking it was a RMagick problem. I don't remember if the gnatt chart or calendar depends on RMagick. I was saving troubleshooting that to a later date.

My calendar is blank, so is that the problem you are seeing too?

I will log the roadmap version date problem as an issue.

Defect #1683 created for this issue.

Yes - blank calendar, and date-time conversion errors in the Gantt chart. The fix in http://www.redmine.org/boards/1/topics/show/1770 is a bit of a hack to get around the problem - basically, the calendar is rendered by looping between two 'date's, but the info coming back from the database is a 'datetime', and the two don't match up so nothing gets rendered.

I think it's probably something that could be fixed at the sqlserver-adapter level rather than needing to modify Redmine, but I've only been looking at Ruby and Rails for a few days so I'm trying to work out how it all fits together.

I've now got a single fix for this, the calendar and the Gantt chart. It can all be resolved with changes to the sql server adapter file, rather than needing to change Redmine. I'll try and write something up tomorrow.
