but then it told me that I could not do this because I was "Not the owner". Any other ways of getting the day result? (2 Replies)

timegm
TIMEGM(3) Linux Programmer's Manual TIMEGM(3)NAME
timegm, timelocal - inverses of gmtime and localtime
SYNOPSIS
#include <time.h>
time_t timelocal(struct tm *tm);
time_t timegm(struct tm *tm);
Feature Test Macro Requirements for glibc (see feature_test_macros(7)):
timelocal(), timegm():
Since glibc 2.19:
_DEFAULT_SOURCE
Glibc 2.19 and earlier:
_BSD_SOURCE || _SVID_SOURCE
DESCRIPTION
The functions timelocal() and timegm() are the inverses of localtime(3) and gmtime(3). Both functions take a broken-down time and convert
it to calendar time (seconds since the Epoch, 1970-01-01 00:00:00 +0000, UTC). The difference between the two functions is that timelo-
cal() takes the local timezone into account when doing the conversion, while timegm() takes the input value to be Coordinated Universal
Time (UTC).
RETURN VALUE
On success, these functions return the calendar time (seconds since the Epoch), expressed as a value of type time_t. On error, they return
the value (time_t) -1 and set errno to indicate the cause of the error.
ERRORS
EOVERFLOW
The result cannot be represented.
ATTRIBUTES
For an explanation of the terms used in this section, see attributes(7).

CONFORMING TO
These functions are nonstandard GNU extensions that are also present on the BSDs. Avoid their use.
NOTES
The timelocal() function is equivalent to the POSIX standard function mktime(3). There is no reason to ever use it.
