  If you are using MySQL the FROM_UNIXTIME function works real well for this situation. Try SELECT FROM_UNIXTIME(TIME_STAMP) FROM ACCOUNTING to get the time in human readable format. This function and other useful MySQL time functions are documented at http://www.mysql.com/doc/en/Date_and_time_functions.html

    The host is running NTP and the time is correct.  I am now getting the UNIX time but have been unable to convert it to a date-time format.  

    This is my first mysql project and I have no programming experience so, I apologize for so many questions for what may be simple problems.

      Hello Steve -

      Thanks for sending the files - everything looks correct.

      As has been mentioned elsewhere, have you checked the time on the Radiator host?

      It is generally a good idea to run NTP on all network hosts to avoid this sort of problem.

      regards

      Hugh

        Attached is my config and Trace 4.  I did download and install the timedate module from CPAN.

        Hello Steve -

        I will need to see a copy of the current configuration file (no secrets) together with a trace 4 debug showing what is happening. You should be aware that the Timestamp is the time on the Radiator host that is automatically corrected for any Acct-Delay-Time included in the accounting request.

        regards

        Hugh

        I have a couple more questions,  Why is the timestamp inserted with the incorrect date?  I tried all the permutations of the timestamp but, I either get 0000-00-00 00:00:00 or an incorrect date such as 2000-10-28 57:17:65 which is from 5 minutes ago. 
         
        Thanks,
