logconv.pl has an off by one bug in %monthname
Last modified: 2015-12-07 11:58:39 EST
Description of problem: logconv.pl %month hash is off by one. Month numbers should start with 0, otherwise the tool will fail when parsing a log where there are days numbered with 31. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): All. How reproducible: Every time. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Run logconv.pl on an access logfile with days which are numbered 31. Actual results: Time::Local will fail and say day 31 out of range, use 0..30. Expected results: That it would work. Additional info: None.
Created attachment 127938 [details] CVS Diffs The timegm() subroutine expects the month to be specified as a range of 0..11. We were using a range of 1..12 in logconv.pl which would cause timegm() to report out of range errors when the log was from the month of december or if the month that we incorrectly mapped to contained less days the day of the month that the log specified (ex. - If the log has an entry for January 30th, we'd incorrectly map this to February 30th, which is an invalid date). This fix changes the range we use for the month to 0..11.
