funny effect :-/ Here I use same platform configuration with 4.0.3 and it works fine. Which language/country settings do you use on your server?
Further more it could be be helpful when you can check the date format you will get when you place a date picker datatype (but not a date picker with time) on a doc type and edit this doc in content section.
Thanks for your help, Immo
PS. There is an other problem with date picker in umbraco 4.0.3 described here (Date-Picker-doesn't-work) with a hotfix. May it is related to your issue.
I finally could reproduce exactly the error you described. I changed short date format of the server from TT.MM.JJJJ to MM.TT.JJJJ (german settings) which results in your error. May be you have similar arrangement e.g. with en-US on the server and en-GB for the umbraco user? Then I modified page load behaviour so that it now first of all use the culture settings (including date format) from the current umbraco user which fixes the problem here.
Feedback if the update solves your problem too would be great - thanks for testing. Immo
I'm having the same issue. However, we need the server short date format to be US, and the only English option available for users in our installation is English (UK). Therefore, we're stuck. I could modify the original source, but it seems this is likely to be a common problem (and does anybody know why "English (US)" is not an option for users?).
And it seems a bit fragile to me that it would be viewed based on the user's data format instead of the server date format as I believe the server format must be the format in which it is persisted to the database.

I've just installed the Logmananger Package and clicked on the link to view my log. Click here to see a screenshot.

Hi Timsn, and thanks for your bug report.

Hi,
I have also just installed this package and I get the same error as Timsn on exactly the same spec ( virtual ) server.
Cheers,
Chris
The strange thing is that it works now. Oo
When I later got back to look at the logmanager it worked. I've done nothing in particular to solve this problem it just worked after a time :/
Try to recycle the application pool or reinstall the package. Maybe that helps.

Hi Ted,
here is a post about setting en-US in umbraco back office http://our.umbraco.org/forum/using/ui-questions/6640-Date-format-in-developer-UI. Hope this solve your date format problem.
BTW did you tried the 4.0.1 version? Did it worked for you or not?
Thanks, Immo
Version 4.0.1 works fine. Thank you for the update Immo!
I am having problems with the datetime format too? see http://screencast.com/t/MGZlYTE3NGIt
I do not know what the server setting is, i cannout access this server myself.
