Description Jens 2024-03-28 16:22:56 UTC
SUMMARY
I have a Nextcloud 28 instance running to share files with other people.
I have a shortcut in my Dolphin sidebar to use the Files area of this instance shared using WebDAVs:
webdavs://HOSTNAME/remote.php/dav/files/MY_EMAIL/

Since upgrading to KDE 6, all files I can see on this share have the modification time "Jan 1, 1970".
This also happens when using `kioclient ls <URL>` on the command line:

```
$ kioclient stat webdavs://....../Documents/xxxxxx.xls
NAME                  xxxxxx.xls
SIZE                  471552
FILE_TYPE             0100000
MIME_TYPE             application/vnd.ms-excel
ACCESS                0600
MODIFICATION_TIME     Thu Jan 1 00:00:00 1970
CREATION_TIME         Sun Mar 24 13:08:26 2024
```

Using other WebDAV clients (e.g. `cadaver` display the modification time correctly.
This also does not happen wit other remote protocols, e.g. `kio_fish`.

It sesms to be a regression when moving from KDE 5 to KDE 6.



SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS: KDE Neon 22.04 with all updates applied.

Same on openSUSE Tumbleweed

A curl PROPFIND confirms that the WebDAV server correctly reports <d:getlastmodified> tags.

A cross check with a smb:// url show fine:

Bug in Qt: https://bugreports.qt.io/browse/QTBUG-114681

I opened a MR with a workaround.

http: Fix parsing DAV:getlastmodified

It's defined as a rfc1123 date which always has a "GMT" suffix (which means
UTC). The Qt::RFC2822Date parser in Qt no longer accepts timezones declared
as obsolete in RFC2822, even though that RFC says it MUST be accepted...

Also add some error handling to avoid spitting out invalid UDS values.
