Issue with locales file

Paulo1809 · July 7, 2022, 1:29pm

We are in the process of migrating some of our applications from CF9 to Lucee 5.3.8.206 on Windows 2019.

We are using a locale file to hold our date/time formats, located in \WEB-INF\lucee\locales\en-GB-datetime.df

This works fine for a period of time, our LSParseDateTime calls use this file happily. However, it seems after a period of time (inconsistent), that it stops working, and we end up with an error message of “lucee.runtime.exp.ExpressionException: can’t cast [2022-06-20] to date value”
"to add custom formats for en_GB, create/extend on the following files [en-GB-datetime.df in the following directory [/lucee/locales].

Obviously our formats already exist in this file, and as previously stated, work fine for a time. The only way we can fix this is to restart Lucee, it again works for a time, but then begins to fail with same error message.

Any help or suggestions would be appreciated.

Don’t forget to tell us about your stack!

Win 2019
Lucee 5.3.8.206
Java 11.0.14.1 (Eclipse Adoptium) 64 bit
Tomcat 9.0.59

@Paulo1809 Can please provide the content you have in the en-GB-datetime.df file?

FYI, locale files require the java mask from here SimpleDateFormat (Java Platform SE 7 ).

So for example your input value [2022-06-20] needs yyyy-MM-dd as mask value in the en-GB-datetime.df file

The content of the en-GB-datetime.df file is as follows:

yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss
yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm
yyyy-MM-dd
HH:mm
HH:mm:ss
