Version: 0.10.5 (using KDE KDE 3.5.7) Installed from: Gentoo Packages Compiler: gcc-4.1.2 OS: Linux Every article, in every newsgroup, is shown in the Date column as having a date such as 1958-02-10; it's not random, as they do ascend normally from there, but they are off by some amount which is not at all a round number (that date corresponds to 2007-07-09). However, the date shown as the Date header of each article is correct, and is displayed correctly by KNode; only the Date column in the articles pane is incorrect. I think this behavior is very recent, and perhaps only began after Knode was exited improperly earlier today. However, closing and opening the program does not fix the problem. New articles also have the wrong date, as do very old ones (i.e. it seems to be a problem of KNode formatting the date, rather than recording it), and such tactics as removing and then resubscribing to a newsgroup are of no help.
In the directory ~/.kde/share/apps/knode/nntp.1, you will find datas associated with your newsgroups. Could you pick up a public newsgroup, and attach the files groupname.grpinfo, groupname.dynamic and groupname.static to this bug report. Those files contain informations on each article of a group, such as their id, subject, status (read, ignored, watched, etc.) and their date, as displayed in the articles thread view. You might also try to move ~/.kde/share/apps/knode/ and ~/.kde/share/config/knoderc to a backup place, in order to zeroed the knode's setting and see if it helps.
Same here. Knode 0.10.5 (KDE 3.5.7, SuSE 10.2, RPM from download.opensuse.org). Deleting of ~/.kde/share/apps/knode/ and ~/.kde/share/config/knoderc and recreation of the groups didn't solve the problem. I've checked left knode processes too. Theres exactly the same offset in all postings. 31695 days between date column and article view.
PS: Sorry, i can't attach the whole group files - it's a private news server. But the timestamp in <groupname>.static seems to be ok: <$message-id> SCAN $poster 0 0 1 2 1179127650 2 1 1 Xref: $hostname test:1 [...] "1179127650" is 2007-05-14 08:27, but shown as 1920-08-03 07:04
Created attachment 21398 [details] Add some debug outputs This diff applied to knode from KDE 3.5.7. When applied, it will output more info both when it load the data from the ng.name.static file and when it display the headers view. Olaf: can you use this diff and send the output back ?
Damn, problem is gone. And i don't know why. Sorry :-/
I'm experience the similar problem on Fedora 7 (amd64) with "kdepim-3.5.7-10.svn20070926.ent.fc7" . But in my case, date is of future. Following is the link to the screenshot of the buggy application http://flickr.com/photos/wahjava/1809260249/ The timestamp in <groupname>.static is showing correct date/time.
Now it is showing correct date/time. I don't know why it is now showing correct date/time.
Hello! Sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but this project has been unmaintained for many years so I am closing this bug.
