Help: Messages from the future: "Invalid Time or Date Encountered" after setting the system date to year 3434

Jan Schulz  |     |  Comments (1)
Hello LazyWeb,

we had a user who accidentally changed his system date to sometime in the future (year 3434...) and did some work in his local mailfile and replicated... <insert fun with local replication which resulted in delting all his local replics here>. Since then we get this nice message on the servers:
03.10.2008 03:25:07   Error reading RevisionTime for folder operations in database <mailfile.nsf>. Run fixup on the database.: Invalid Time or Date Encountered

Needles to say, that fixup does not make this message go away :-( Anyway: all docs with "funny" dates are gone from the mailfile, there seems to be no folder with such funny dates and I purged the deletion stubs, but the message still comes _twice_ on every fixup.

The last time we just "sat it out", as it was just one month in the future, but waiting to year 3434 is probably not an option.

Anyone with an Idea?

Here's how to fix it:

Make a copy of the database, and then a new replica of that new copy.

Those two actions should eliminate all disruptive references to the future date.
