Wendesday, 31 December 1969 date on student uploads

Hi,

We are using Moodle 1.9.19. We upgraded in October 2012 and in February started receiving reports that student assignment files are not uploading into the assignments.

The student will upload their file the and instructor does not see the file on the assignment submission page. However, I did log in as the student and when I click the assignment link, the file is there. When I am logged in as the instructor, I cannot see the file on the assignment submission page. On a hunch, I went the participants list, selected student name link, clicked the Activity report link and then clicked the Complete activity link. As the instructor, I could now see and access the file but it has an upload date of Wednesday, 31 December 1969, 07:00 PM (43 years 81 days early). Very strange!!!

What the student sees when they click the assignment link, the file is visible for him/her:

 

 

What the instructor sees on the assignment submission page:

The instrucor can see and access the file from the Complet activity page:

 

Any ideas on what is happening and how we can fix the issue? This is not widespread but has happened in 4 courses to 6 students.

Thanks,

Caryl Gordon
