Validation failed for type named Hour

Validation failed for type named Hour

by Daniel Jordan -

If I set the Default Time that the Assignment is Due in General on Course Configuration to be 12:30pm (I also tried 12:00pm, the minutes are probably not important) I get the error below when I try to create an assignment. Anything not part of the noon hour is fine. It sounds like WeBWorK::Utils::DateTime::getDefaultSetDueDate is adding 12 to the hour despite it being 12:00pm, but I don't see why that would be happening. I was hoping 13:30 would be a workaround, but the Course Configuration rejects that. This is using version 2.19. Any ideas?

Validation failed for type named Hour

by Danny Glin -
This was identified and fixed in September, 2024.  If you pull in the latest version of the code you will get the fix.
 
Since WW 2.20 has been released it's a little more complicated to just pull in hotfixes to a previous version without upgrading to the new version.  You would likely have to check out the WeBWorK-2.19+ tag from GitHub.
