           Summary: Auto-calculation of expiry date for new members not
                    working
           Product: Koha
           Version: branch 2.2
          Platform: PC
               URL: http://<intranet>:8080/cgi-
                    bin/koha/members/memberentry.pl
        OS/Version: Linux - Debian
            Status: NEW
          Severity: major
          Priority: P2
         Component: Members
        AssignedTo: address@hidden
        ReportedBy: address@hidden

If I add a new member through the intranet interface the expiry date is not
automatically calculated.  The registration date isn't automatically filled in
either.

I'm using Koha 2.2.9 on Debian Sarge, MySQL 4.1, Date::Manip 5.42, Date::Calc
5.4, Perl 5.8.4.  We're using metric date format.

In fact, even if I fill in the registration date manually it doesn't get saved
in the member's record.  The same applies to the expiry date, making it
impossible to add users with a valid expiry date.

Checking the database it seems that it's storing a registration date of
'0000-00-00' and an expiry date of '0000-00-00' regardless of whether I enter
dates.

Manually entering dates works if I enter in SQL/ISO format, for example
'2009-05-17'.

There are no errors appearing in koha-error_log.

This bug was allegedly fixed in 2.2.9 but it now seems to be worse than before.
 There has been some discussion in the Koha mailing list.
