LAS version problem

[Chi Ding <chi@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi there
     I have been running a customized LAS 6.1.0.2
on a RedHat 7.3 box for a long time and it's working fine.
     Yesterday when I ported my customized code to a solaris machine
which is running another version of LAS ( probaby 6.2), I met a problem.
When I submitted a request to LASserver.pl, I got an error
[Mon Dec 15 13:59:25 2003] Invalid date '28-09-2003'
     I tried different date format like '09-28-2003' or '28/09/2003', but
none of them worked.
     I found the error information was printed by Ferret.pl at subroutine
sub validateDate {
    my $datein = shift;
    my $status = 0;
    if ($datein){
      my $date = new TMAP::Date($datein);
      if ($date->isError && validateNumber($datein)) {
        die "Invalid date '$datein'\n";
      }
    }
    Anybody could help me about this problem?
    My XML request was as following
    <?xml version="1.0"?><lasRequest package="" href="file:las.xml"><link
match="/lasdata/operations/MooringTest"/><properties><ferret><size>.5</size><format>gif</format></ferret></properties><args><link

    Thanks a lot, Ding
