FYI: I just tested the latest jar (with commit d15a25064484f526501cae63371160fb7627d1d8) and it preserves the file date now. I’m happy again!

I might have found another thing that is problematic with 4.8.5 on an Ubuntu 18.04 server: it seems to remove the file creation date when moving files.

With 4.8.2, I can rename and move files from e.g.
-rw-rw-r-- 1 name name 1,9G jan 2 03:04 Star.Trek.The.Next.Generation.S01E03.mkv
To
-rw-rw-r ...

openjdk-11-jre:
$ java -version
openjdk version "10.0.2" 2018-07-17
OpenJDK Runtime Environment (build 10.0.2+13-Ubuntu-1ubuntu0.18.04.4)
OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM (build 10.0.2+13-Ubuntu-1ubuntu0.18.04.4, mixed mode)

and

$ apt show openjdk-11-jre
Package: openjdk-11-jre
Version: 10.0.2+13 ...

Hmm... I seem to get an error when installing on an Ubuntu 18.04 headless. Version 4.8.2 works flawlessly, but when I try running 4.8.5 it looks like this:


$ filebot
Error: LinkageError occurred while loading main class net.filebot.Main
