I just tried to use WAM v5 build 235.
When I try to Add a User, I get the attached error message...
saying '24-Sep-17' is not a valid date.

I have not entered a date anywhere.
I am connected to my server OK and see the folders.
An Administrator user has been added for me.

What has happened?

Hi John,
I would open a support topic.

I can't hear what I'm looking at.
It's easy to overlook something you're not looking for.

Working with Support, we have solved this issue. They will have a fix in the next release.

The problem was with the Windows Short Date format I was using on my PC.
By changing the default Short Date format to dd-mm-yy or mm-dd-yy the problem goes away.
So it looks to me that there is a field in the database trying to store the date dd-MMM-yy that is one char too small.
Using the changed short date format gets me around the issue.

John.
