Title: [SOLVED] Resolution Center information fake and incorrect
Post by: sillybastard on June 05, 2013, 05:59 am
I am trying to release payment, I click on view and all the information is completely blank.  Except under Proposed resolutions.  And says it was 43 years ago??

I don't wanna release payment to the wrong person or have this be some phishing thing.  I could still click the release payment button, but not sure if I should.  This happens for all my resolutions right now. 

This is kinda what the page looks like (copy and pasted):

Transaction details

    item:
    quantity:
    buyer:
    seller:
    date shipped:
    due in:

's stats

    Rank:
    Positive feedback: %
    Total transactions:
    Member for:

Proposed resolutions:

refund   due date extension   message   from   freshness   
                43 years
January 1, 1970, 12:00 am UTC    delete

Yeah, I've been seeing a few reports of Resolution Center errors.  I'll forward this one along to the admin as well!  Thanks for reporting it!

As scout stated, this has been passed up and is being worked on. Can you let us know if you're still experiencing it now?

FYI, 43 years ago was 1 January 1970, or Unix Time 0. It means no time has been set.

Yep, all Unix/Linux/BSD operating systems measure time in seconds from midnight UTC on 1 Jan 1970. Local, human-readable time and date is converted from that. I've seen screenshots of phone apps that said 11:59 PM, 31 Dec 1969, because Unix Time defaulted to -1 second. That usually happens when there's no data for time, it defaults to 0 or -1.

And now you know more than you ever wanted to know about computer time. :)
