Description of problem: [I discovered this because I did not realize that using "date" format dates in at required the "-t" switch; it is however a bug in its own right I believe] For for invalid date syntaxes in the at, the syntax error is not reported but instead the job is submitted for bogus date/time Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: 100% Steps to Reproduce: 1. type "at 10150102" Actual results: job scheduled for 2002-10-15 13:34 Expected results: (I incorrectly expected) "job 2 at 2006-10-15 01:02" (having read the manual, I now expect) "Garbled time" Additional info:
Hello, which version do you have? Please upgrade on the highest at-3.1.8-80_EL4. If I give "at 10150602", it'll return "Garbled time" -> correct. If I give "at 10150102" then returns prompt "at>" -> incorrect. I work on new version from upstream at-3.1.10 and here will be instead prompt message "refusing to create job destined in the past". I'll propose for adding patch for this problem.
Inactive more than six months -> closing. If your problem is still occuring, please feel free to reopen it.
