Sebastian Nagel commented on NUTCH-2974:
----------------------------------------
Note that the first solution by adding a datetime pattern fails in certain
locales:

Using epoch millis seems to be safe in all locale contexts.

> Key: NUTCH-2974
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NUTCH-2974
> Project: Nutch
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: build
> Affects Versions: 1.19
> Reporter: Sebastian Nagel
> Priority: Major
> Fix For: 1.20
>
>
> When touching the configuration templates the ant build fails on certain
> platforms, see NUTCH-2512 and recently by [Kamil Mroczek on the users
> list|https://lists.apache.org/thread/dc36ofc6kvvx3fxlqbnzqdcp73yjcj8m],
> including a fix.
> However, we should also consider removing the "touch" action if it's not
> clear what the purpose of it is - it's there since the initial import of the
> Nutch source code to the Apache repository. Could be obsolete now.
