Dashboard error due to localized (default) date

[Michael Zock]

Hi

I just tried the stable and (1.7.4) the beta version (1.8) in a VM with CF9.0.2 and both versions seem to experience a "The STARTDATE argument passed to the searchEntries function is not of type date." error right after installing the application.
Only change to the vanilla config was changing the "mysql" to "mssql" to get it to work with a SQL Server 2008 Express instance.

Tag context (taken from 1.8):

C:\www\buglog\components\hq\appService.cfc [112] C:\www\buglog\hq\handlers\general.cfc [138] C:\www\buglog\core\coreApp.cfc [210] C:\www\buglog\core\coreApp.cfc [95] C:\www\buglog\hq\index.cfm [27]

The culprit seems to be a localized date ("Mai, 14 2013 11:35:37") on this German system, as seen in a dump file generated by adding a writeDump(criteria) to the dashboardContent() in the handlers/general.cfc
Without taking too close a look at the source, my first suspect would be the line "startdate = now()" in the method normalizeCriteria() of the same component.

Thanks in advance for taking a look at the file in question.
