Description rudi1944 2014-03-06 14:19:05 UTC
It is impossible to type the date 1893/04/01 however you type it (01.04.1893, 1983-04-01 …). It is always automatically changed into 1893/03/31 (…).
This is a big problem when you work with old registers that have to be digitalized.
Comment 1 Robert Großkopf 2014-03-06 19:49:39 UTC
Could confirm this bug special for the date 1893/04/01. If I write a date 1893/04/01 it is shown as 1893/03/31. If I open the same table in LO 3.3.4 it shows 1893/04/01.
This regression first appears in LO 3.4.0beta1. The last working version was 3.3.4
My System: OpenSUSE 12.3 64bit rpm Linux.
I set the version to the first the bug appeared.

Query shows: The date is saved right, it is shown wrong in the GUI

A database with one table. A datefield and a timestamp-field, also two varchar-fields for showing the expected values. Open the query. It shows (for this bug) the input into the datefield as date and as varcharfield. Also shows, which Day and which Month is saved in the internal HSQLDB database.
The date seems to be saved right, but is shown wrong in the GUI.
Comment 3 m_a_riosv 2014-03-17 00:06:13 UTC
I think it can be the same issue, or at least the same root as in https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=74869, OS time zone affects some dates.

Comment 5 Michael Weghorn 2015-08-19 18:51:37 UTC
The bug seems to have been fixed in the meanwhile.

I just tried this again with different LibreOffice versions (provided at the following URL: https://downloadarchive.documentfoundation.org/libreoffice/old/).

I can reproduce the issue with "4.3.3.2_Linux_x86-64_deb" and "LibreOffice_4.4.5.2_Linux_x86-64", but no longer with "LibreOffice_5.0.1.1_Linux_x86-64".

I also cannot reproduce the issue with a recent master build from the lo-linux-dbgutil bibisect repository. I tried commit fde19a183e7f8b1623c4db5071ad7f66b1b7e1c9 (source-hash-e0b0501452e6a72ba800ae9f536d766f8111ed78) of 2015-08-19.

Please provide feedback if you should still observe this behaviour with the most recent LibreOffice version; otherwise it will be considered fixed.
Comment 6 Robert Großkopf 2015-08-19 19:20:17 UTC
Right, works with LO 5.0.1.1, doesn't work with LO 4.4.5.2 on OpenSUSE 13.2 64bit rpm Linux.
Comment 7 Michael Weghorn 2015-08-19 20:49:01 UTC
I (bi)bisected (using the bibisect-50max repo) to find out where this bug was fixed.
Notice, that "good" and "bad" were therefore used in the opposite way as for normal bisecting, i.e. commits marked as "bad" do not contain the bug.

In order to also fix this in LibreOffice 4.4, the following commit would have to be cherry-picked.

        use XCalendar4 local date/time in CalendarWrapper, tdf#63230
    
        Replaces the three-step timezone+DST correction. Hopefully ICU does take these
        into account, but this needs to be double-rechecked and if necessary
        correction be implemented at XCalendar4::setLocalDateTime()

        Interpreting as standard time for non-existing times sounds like what we need
        and covers the dreaded "00:00-01:00 doesn't exist" case that decremented the
        day and was fixed here with the now removed workaround.

Comment 8 Michael Weghorn 2015-08-19 21:00:02 UTC
According to comments 22 and 23 in bug 63230 (which is addressed by the above mentioned commit), some more patches might be involved and - as far as I understand it - Eike mentioned there that backporting those to LibreOffice 4.4 might only be done with a certain amount of caution...
