When you load the dialplan, do you see the global variables getting set?
That would at least tell you whether the problem lies at the point where the
values are loaded into memory, or later, at evaluation time.




  == Setting global variable 'YEAR' to 'Tue Jul 13 13:36:55 2010'
  == Setting global variable 'MONTH' to 'Tue Jul 13 13:36:55 2010'
  == Setting global variable 'DAY' to 'Tue Jul 13 13:36:55 2010'
  == Setting global variable 'TIMESTAMP' to 'Tue Jul 13 13:36:55 2010'

So apparently they're loaded into memory when the dialplan is reloaded?

Since you never know when you'll need this, I slapped the code into my
1.4.30.  

Here is the "corrected" code that works

YEAR = ${STRFTIME(${EPOCH}||%Y)}

MONTH = ${STRFTIME(${EPOCH}||%m)}

DAY = ${STRFTIME(${EPOCH}||%d)}

TIMESTAMP = ${STRFTIME(${EPOCH}||%Y%m%d-%H%M%S)}
