XML bulk upload - incorrect start/stop time interpretation

[HeneryH]

I just uploaded 20 videos using the bulk xml uploader. On all of my entries I set

        <startDate>2000-09-01T09:00:00</startDate>
        <endDate>2099-09-01T09:00:00</endDate>

but many of them are getting incorrectly interpreted as 1963.

Can someone try a test by downloading the sample xml uploader file (by going to the menu area for uploading you can get a copy of the xml template). There are a few sample videos Kaltura has for download in the template. Can you change the times to above and see if they work OK?

While resetting all of the dates manually in the KMC I noticed an incorrect behavior.

Say you have
S = 2010
E = 2011

Which is valid.

Now you want to change to current times
S = 2014
E = [clear] <-- cleared but the old 2011 value is still there but hidden. causes error

When you submit, you get an error saying incorrect dates. I seems the clear flag leaves the old date in the database and the security check flags the problem as time inversion.

Hi Henry,

I am able to reproduce your first issue.
About the 2nd issue, can you further explain please? I am not sure I
understand the scenario. Can you detail step by step what you have done
and the behavior you got as well as the output of kaltlog at the time of
doing this action? Thanks in advance,

May the source be with you,

Jess Portnoy

Hi Henry,

Sorry but not seeing your update..?

One of those bad xml uploads you could reproduce...

Say you have an entry with times:
S = 2010
E = 2011
Which is valid.

Now you want to change to current times
S = 2014 <-- you enter the new start time
E = [clear] <-- and clear the end via check-box but the old 2011 value is still there but hidden

When you submit, you get an error saying incorrect dates. I seems the clear flag leaves the old date in the database and the security check flags the problem as time inversion.

Hi Henry,

Seeing how this is Core issue, I opened it here:

Please keep track there and thank you for bringing this to my attention,
