Timeline gives wrong time for wiki edits

[PBruin]

I have done 5 page edits over the last hour or so. The time line shows all these edits with the same time as the very first edit. So the first page was edited at 13:56 and the last at 14:40 but all show 13:56 as the change time.

BTW, is there something to block the google adverts? The block the ticket edit box on my screen so I can not really see what I am typing, this very very anoying.

The time displayed for wiki page updates is the time that the server was last restarted.
I rebooted my restarted my server at 13:56 and all wiki changes stayed on this time even after committing several changesets. Now I restarted the server again and have the same time as of the latest restart.

I also saw some weird issues with the time management (on my own Apache2 server)

I've commited a couple of changes to SVN, then I've updated a Wiki page about these changes.

The timeline shows that I first wrote the changes in the Wiki, then committed the files, and the time reported is about 35 minutes late for the Wiki page edition (02:24 whereas I wrote it a 3:01).

I did not spent time (yet) to try to reproduce this bug.

I can ssh on the server, so I'm sure the date on the server is correct (an both the client and the server are up-to-date thanks to NTP)

What python version and what Trac front-end are you using?

[PBruin]

mod_python and python 2.3

This patch fixes the problem for me. It is probably not the best of styles but it works. Is it some python incompatibility?

Oh wow, that's a bad mistake :-P

Thanks for tracking it down!

Fixed in [1682].

Please see trac ticket 4271. I'm using tracd and python 2.3.5. It was working but after creating a custom field in the ticket I think this problem started to occur. I have been using trac for six months and had no issues until now.
