Date function stopped working after 9.7.2 update?

ashraf.madina Can you confirm

I wrote a code to check Groovy 3.0.17 to find which groovy-*.jar contains the ExtensionModule file.

The result was as follows:

groovy-jsr223-3.0.17.jar contains META-INF/groovy/org.codehaus.groovy.runtime.ExtensionModule
groovy-swing-3.0.17.jar contains META-INF/groovy/org.codehaus.groovy.runtime.ExtensionModule
groovy-nio-3.0.17.jar contains META-INF/groovy/org.codehaus.groovy.runtime.ExtensionModule
groovy-sql-3.0.17.jar contains META-INF/groovy/org.codehaus.groovy.runtime.ExtensionModule
groovy-xml-3.0.17.jar contains META-INF/groovy/org.codehaus.groovy.runtime.ExtensionModule
groovy-dateutil-3.0.17.jar contains META-INF/groovy/org.codehaus.groovy.runtime.ExtensionModule
groovy-datetime-3.0.17.jar contains META-INF/groovy/org.codehaus.groovy.runtime.ExtensionModule
groovy-macro-3.0.17.jar contains META-INF/groovy/org.codehaus.groovy.runtime.ExtensionModule

V9.7.2 misses the ExtensionModule file of these jars, therefore there are some more failing methods.

But, I suppose, Katalon users are not using most of those failing methods. The Date.format(String) is an exception, which is popular amongst Groovy programmers.

Please fix this asap

you sure you got the right recording? :smiley:

Thank you for confirming @ashraf.madina

Hi!

Is this workaround only for the current time, and will be fixed in the next versions?
Thanks

Have you tried out the 10.0.0 beta release? Any issues?

We’ll be fixing this issue in the next patch of 9.x.

Hello, I am just getting started with Katalon and trying to run tests written by someone else. I’m running into this issue, but don’t understand your instructions. Can you explain how I install the .jar file into my “external library”?

Hi!

You download the .jar file from here: https://forum.katalon.com/uploads/short-url/et2xZpS8mkA7Lt7dePbkLcd3zLq.jar

In Katalon you open Project → Settings

Library Management → Add

Find the file you downloaded in the file explorer and click OK
Click Apply

DONE :slight_smile:
