I would suggest that you leave out strptime for the meantime, and just
assign $EventTime to $1, at least temporarily. That way, you could be
confident in that you were actually capturing the correct data.
Do you have 0 or space-padded values? Are the values padded at all (note
that %m is "(1-12)" according to the manual page for strptime, similarly
for %d, etc. Note that leading zero's can be parsed with %0m and %0d --
although these are locale-specific)
Some sample inputs would help us.
Exec if $raw_event =~ /^(\d\d.\d\d.\d\d\d\d\s\d\d:\d\d:\d\d)/ $EventTime =
strptime($1, '%m/%d/%y %H:%M:%S');
You might prefer the following, which may be a bit more recognisable. Given
Botond's mention of parser issues with \, I've used [\] instead.
Exec if $raw_event =~ /^(..[.]..[.].... ..:..:..)/ $EventTime =
strptime($1, '%m/%d/%y %H:%M:%S');
Cheers,
Cameron
