Hi,

I'm creating nodes using services through XMLRPC. All works fine, but I cannot modify the data (field_date) that the node must use. The structure I'm using correct, however when I see the new node I obtain:

    [field_date] => Array
        (
            [0] => Array
                (
                    [value] => 
                    [value2] => 
                    [timezone] => Europe/Madrid
                    [timezone_db] => UTC
                    [date_type] => datetime
                )

        )

Although I'm passing the date in the creation, instead of

    [field_date] => Array
        (
            [0] => Array
                (
                    [value] => 2011-05-20 10:49:17
                    [value2] => 2011-05-20 11:49:20
                    [timezone] => Europe/Madrid
                    [timezone_db] => UTC
                    [date_type] => datetime
                )

        )

That is the structure I receive when I look the node with .get once I add a date with node/edit.

Any clue?.

Thanks!

You need to look at what drupal excute excepts and specifically what structure the date field is excepting. The format depends on the widget and lots of strange things happen in date module. Sorry I can't help anymore other than suggesting submit a form in drupal itself add a dpm and see what the data structure should look like.

Finally I find the error is not a services issue, but a date issue.

I close the issue.

Hi gianfrasoft

I add the next code on date module (date_elements.inc,v 1.46.2.2.2.70 2010/12/29 14:11:50):

    (..)

    if (!empty($field['todate'])) {
      $to_date = date_input_value($field, $element[$to_field]);
    }
    else {
      $to_date = $from_date;
    }

    //added
    if (empty($from_date)&&!empty($element['#post']['field_date']['0']['value']))
    {
      //In that case we are in a popup configuration and we are recovering the information from XMLRPC.
      $from_date = $element['#post']['field_date']['0']['value'];
      $to_date = $element['#post']['field_date']['0']['value2'];
    }
    //End added.
     
    
    // Neither the from date nor the to date should be empty at this point
    // unless they held values that couldn't be evaluated.
    if (!$field['required'] && (empty($from_date) || empty($to_date))) {
      $item = date_element_empty($element, $form_state);
      $errors[] = t('The dates are invalid.');
    }
    (..)

In our case we are working with the POPUP witched.
