Hi Clive / Rajshekhar, > I notice that with DSpace 1.5.2 on our server the strange codes were > already there before the database upgrade: > > dc date accessioned 2009-04-29T05:57:26Z > dc date available 2009-04-29T05:57:26Z > dc date issued 2009-04-29T05:57:26Z
These dates are completely normal. See: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO_8601#UTC Basically it is a way of describing date / time fields in a timezone neutral way. year-month-day T (to denote the start of the Time part) hour:minute:second Z (zulu time) Therefore the contents of your database appear to be fine. When you view an item, are the dates correct in there - is it just the browse screens that appear wrong? Since upgrading, have you re-indexed your browse tables? Step 10 of the upgrade instructions (http://www.dspace.org/1_6_2Documentation/ch04.html#N10FE6) says to run: - [dspace]/bin/dspace index-init You could look in your browse index tables bi_* and see what values they are holding. Are they holding the expected dates in the format you would expect?
