I'm trying to update the cover date on a set of stories via soap by
exporting, regexing, then updating. This appears to work without error, but
when I look at the stories through the web interface the cover dates are
off. The year is 1 less, the day is 1 less, and the hour is 19:00:00 when it
should be 00:00:00. However, when I look up the same story in the
story_instance table it has the correct updated date.
I have no idea what's happening. Am I formatting my date incorrectly? Is it
being interpreted in a way I didn't expect? Is timezone a factor? I checked
bric's date settings and they look reasonable (Eastern Time). What am I
doing wrong?
My xml looks as such:
...
<cover_date>2002-01-01T00:00:00Z</cover_date>
...
which produces a cover date of:
2001-12-31 19:00:00
