I think this only happens if the server/computer is set to an Eastern Canadian
timezone. In 1947, 1948 and 1949, Canada decided to switch to daylight saving
time at midnight rather than the usual 2am. Therefore, 1947-04-27 00:00:00,
1948-04-25 00:00:00 and 1949-04-24 00:00:00 don't exist in this timezone.
Even if borrowers.dateofbirth is set to 'date' (not 'datetime'), Koha crashes,
saying the date doesn't exist. I suspect it would happen with any date, but
dateofbirth is the most likely (only) field to have dates in those years.
To test:
1. Create a patron, setting the date of birth to one of these three dates
- 1947-04-27
- 1948-04-25
- 1949-04-24
2. Save the patron
--> Error
I tested this on production installations in 21.05 and it works fine.
Production installations in 22.05, it crashes.
