Session date format distinct on new version 12

In the recent version the date and time stamp in the records of sessions*.log changed.

For example, now the [Session Start] field is shown as  "20160428T105540.000-0600"

Please note the T embeded on the field value.

I need to read all the files for the sessions with :

LOAD

    Document,

   [Session Start],

   [Session Duration],

   [Bytes Received],

   [Authenticated user],

   1 as CountLogin,

    Year([Session Start]) as YearLogin,

    Month([Session Start]) as MonthLogin,

    Day([Session Start]) as DayLogin,

    Date([Session Start],'yyyy-mm-dd') as DateLogin,

    Time([Session Start]) as HourLogin

FROM 

$(Path)\SESSIONS*.LOG (utf8, txt, delimiter is '\t', embedded labels)

Giving error on the calculations for date's.

Any possible fix in order to get the correct results?

Thank you

Hi,

I want to ask if anyone had provided a fix for this issue?

Also the format for Session duration is in decimal format now. Does anyone know if this is fraction of a Day or an Hour?

Session Duration

0.001019

0.029102

etc

First you need to change that format to regular format in Qlik. After that your condition should return as expected

Yes, I did this and it works. (like Timestamp(Timestamp) as Timestamp).

Also session duration was fixed with interval ([Session Duration], 'hh:mm:ss')

But also have noticed that file paths are now separated with '/' and in QV 11.2 they were with '\'.  Is there any exhaustive list about what is different in the log files in QV 12.20 compared to QV 11.2 ?
