| Subject: | Parsing fails with erroneous "bad descriptor" message |
Attempting to use Time::Interval to get an interval between two dates, I
received the following message:
failed to parse date: Bad file descriptor
The "Bad file descriptor" is being generated by Date::Parse.
Code to replicate:
----
#!/usr/bin/perl
use strict;
use warnings;
use Time::Interval;
my $interval = getInterval(
'1970-01-01',
'2006-02-16',
1, # string output
);
print "$interval\n";
----
Attached is strace output, which seems to suggest that the error message
is, from my limited understanding of strace output to do with Date::Zone
looking for libc.mo in several places but failing to find it. As an
aside, changing the first date to 1970-01-02 produces the result that
would be expected.
