Use of uninitialized value in integer multiplication (*) at /home/dmlserv/bin/generateQTstats.pl line 213, <INPUT> line 78.

Fix:
The following fix is included in 5.0.2:
Install DateTime from CPAN: cpan -i DateTime
Add DateTime to the imports at the top of ~/bin/generateQTstats.pl: use DateTime;
Edit lines 199-213 of ~/bin/generateQTstats.pl from:

    my $currentDate = scalar localtime(time());
    my @currentDateParts = split(/ /, $currentDate);
    my $currentday = $currentDateParts[$#currentDateParts-2];
    if(length($currentday) eq 1)
    {
        $currentday = "0$currentday";
    }       
    my $currentYear = substr($currentDateParts[$#currentDateParts],0,4);
    my $currentdate = "$currentYear-$months{$currentDateParts[1]}-$currentday";
    my $isCurrentDate = ($currentdate eq $date);
    my @currentTimes = split (/:/,$currentDateParts[4]);
    my $currentHour = $currentTimes[0];
    my $currentMinute = $currentTimes[1];
    my $currentSecond = $currentTimes[2];
    my $currentTime = ($currentSecond+($currentMinute*60)+($currentHour*3600));

To:

    my $currentTimeObject = DateTime->now;
    my $currentday = $currentTimeObject->day;
    if(length($currentday) eq 1)
    {
        $currentday = "0$currentday";
    }
    my $currentMonth = $currentTimeObject->month;
    if(length($currentMonth) eq 1)   
    {
        $currentMonth = "0$currentMonth";
    }

    my $currentYear = $currentTimeObject->year;
    my $currentdate = "$currentYear-$currentMonth-$currentday";
    my $isCurrentDate = ($currentdate eq $date);
    my $currentHour = $currentTimeObject->hour;
    my $currentMinute = $currentTimeObject->minute;
    my $currentSecond = $currentTimeObject->second;
    my $currentTime = ($currentSecond+($currentMinute*60)+($currentHour*3600));
