10 years ago I suggest the following change: LC_ALL=C in front of /bin/date to set the date function to interpret it as US no matter what the locale is set to. Here is line #418 but you might also want to address line #420: WarrantyExpires=$(GetWarrantyExp| LC_ALL=C /bin/date -jf "%B %d, %Y" "${WarrantyExpires}" +"%Y-%m-%d") > /dev/null 2>&1 ## corrects Apple's change to "Month Day, Year" format for HW_END_DATE
Excellent script! It's my first post here so I'm not familiar with code of conduct. The date function on line #418 is only compatible with the US language. The date string recieved from the webserver is US but if OS X is set to use another language the /bin/date command doesn't understand the ${WarrantyExpires} variable. "Illegal time format-error" if run locally or "awk: i/o error occurred while closing /dev/stdout" when run from ARD. It should also apply to line #420. Don't want to disturb my ubuntu machines so please verify.
