Date parameter parsing

RCirne

<p>Hello all,</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I have a report that takes 2 Date Time typed parameters. In my development environment it works just fine, but on the test environment the parsing of the parameters is not working properly. The date 01/01/14 is being parsed to 01/01/0014 instead of the correct 01/01/2014.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Any ideas about where is the parsing configured? I am using BIRT 3.7.1, Red Hat server.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Thanks in advance.</p>

<p>It's possible that in your development environment, the SimpleDateFormat for Java or the OS is mm/dd/yy, but in your test environment, it's mm/dd/yyyy. </p>
<p> </p>
<p>You might want to check the locale set in your test environment as compared to dev. (Please get output of "locale" from your OS.)</p>

<p>Hello Clement,</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Thanks for your response. The output of locale for both servers is the same:</p>
<p> </p>
<div>LANG=en_US.UTF-8</div>
<div>LC_CTYPE="en_US.UTF-8"</div>
<div>LC_NUMERIC="en_US.UTF-8"</div>
<div>LC_TIME="en_US.UTF-8"</div>
<div>LC_COLLATE="en_US.UTF-8"</div>
<div>LC_MONETARY="en_US.UTF-8"</div>
<div>LC_MESSAGES="en_US.UTF-8"</div>
<div>LC_PAPER="en_US.UTF-8"</div>
<div>LC_NAME="en_US.UTF-8"</div>
<div>LC_ADDRESS="en_US.UTF-8"</div>
<div>LC_TELEPHONE="en_US.UTF-8"</div>
<div>LC_MEASUREMENT="en_US.UTF-8"</div>
<div>LC_IDENTIFICATION="en_US.UTF-8"</div>
<div>LC_ALL=</div>
<div> </div>
<div> </div>
<div>Would you, or someone else, know how to find the SimpleDateFormat for Java in RedHat servers?</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Thanks</div>

<p>Can you run the attached simple report in both environments? It has four Dynamic Text controls that displays the report's Java locale, default and short date formats, and the report's locale setting (<em>Report > Property Editor - Report > Properties > Advanced > Locale</em>).</p>
