I have this output too with ruby 1.9.3 and latest jekyll.

The default year/month format doesn’t match Jekyll’s because the months aren’t getting zero-padded. You can see my fix here: https://gist.github.com/nlindley/6409441

To those having problems with the warning, having ArchivePage inherit Page seems to fix the issues. See this gist: https://gist.github.com/nlindley/6409459

@nlindley This is a simple question, but when I run 'jekyll build' the file loads but none of the methods are ever called. The file is in my _layouts folder, and I know it's getting loaded, but none of the methods fire. Any ideas?
