Null cause from instance - error when importing a dataset

[Jana Gombitova]

When trying to import a specific Flow form to Lumen I get the following error.

Lumen: a4a.akvolumen.org
Flow: aquaforall.akvoflow.org
Dataset: HWTS & utilities pilot Ethiopia->Ethiopia Sales Tracker
The [e-mail] user has access to both instances

I tried importing other datasets from the Flow instance to the same Lumen instance and that worked without issues. The dataset at first glance looks fine.

specific form submissions have date values in an incorrect/unexpected akvo-flow-api format

we can reproduce the problem easily

(let [date-format-2 (SimpleDateFormat. "dd-MM-yyyy")]
  (.parse date-format-2 "26/12/2016"))

Using expected date format works fine:

(let [date-format-2 (SimpleDateFormat. "dd-MM-yyyy")]
  (.parse date-format-2 "26-12-2016"))

#inst "2016-12-26T00:00:00.000-00:00"

Sentry is capturing the problem too:

Thanks @tangrammer

Looking at the dataset, column L Date of sale all submissions made with form version2 have an odd value:

[stale]
