Hi all, as I'm using paperless to scan and archive old handwritten letters and documents, for genealogy purposes, I like to set the date created to dates before 1900 or even 1800. My date format ist YYYY-MM-DD. When I enter a date e.g. 1870-01-01, paperless won't show me the date on the main document site anymore, the field is just empty. The protocol shows no error or warnings at all. Furthermore, when using one of these unofficial Android apps, it brings an error due to invalid date format (FormatException). As far as I understood, Python should be able to handle old date formats. Right now, I suspect some issue on the server side. Does anybody ever created and stored documents with old date formats before 1900 (more precisely, the problem starts with dates before 1890, as far as I can tell)? |

@EuroCoder if youre interested in testing this out there is a docker image with the tag That image is based on v2.8.6 so depending on what version youre currently on you may not want to test it against your production data (for example 2.8.0 contains database migrations). If youre already on the latest it's safe to try out. Again, if youre curious. |

that includes the fix in #6758, but as you can see from the PR I think that'll do it.That image is based on v2.8.6 so depending on what version youre currently on you may not want to test it against your production data (for example 2.8.0 contains database migrations).
