![]() APAR status Closed as program error. Error description The WebSphere scheduler provides two calendaring functions to calculate task run dates. The CRON calendar allows specifying a string in a CRONTAB-like format to calculate possible dates. There is an error in the scheduler CRON algorithm where the year may not be calculated. For example: Applying cron expression: 0 0 0 1 1 ? to date: 2004-08-15 10:00 is incorrectly producing a date with the current year: 2004-01-01 00:00 The correct date should be: 2005-01-01 00:00Local fix Problem summary **************************************************************** * USERS AFFECTED: WebSphere Application Server Enterprise * * Edition 5.0.x users of the internal CRON * * calendar feature of the Scheduler function. * **************************************************************** * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: The CRON calendar may not increment * * the year. * **************************************************************** * RECOMMENDATION: * **************************************************************** The WebSphere scheduler provides two calendaring functions to calculate task run dates.
