We have servoy installed on a linux system which is running on CEST.
Occassionaly when we restart servoy, servoy shows all of the times in our calendar program 2 hours earlier. If we restart again, the time is set properly.
Has anybody else had this problem? Any suggestion for a solution?
Thank you,
Frank Mattheus
I did have a similar problem with Timezones not sticking. See
No matter what I set the local TZ to in Servoy, it would default back to GMT.
I don’t know the cause of the problem, but I know of 2 other people with the same issue. In Windows the problem disappeared after reselecting the default TZ in the OS, then restarting Servoy, but perhaps this was just a coincidence. I’d be interested to hear if you find out more on this issue.
Thanks Antonio,
It appears that ours are slightly different problems.
If I understand correctly, yours would always start with the wrong timezone, whereas ours generally requires two a restart after not working.
I would appreciate if this problem would be looked into, as we occasionally need to restart our server from remote, and I can’t check whether the timezone is correct. That means the next day when I’m in the office, I need to restart again, and some meetings could have already been booked incorrectly.
We recieve the timezone from Java which retrieves it from OS, we fail to explain this behaviour.
Hi Jan, I seem to attract mysterious things, but I can assure you the behaviour is as described in http://forum.servoy.com/viewtopic.php?t … t=timezone , on more than one box, at more than one site. I can supply you with screen shots if required. Perhaps it’s not Servoy, but there’s some set of conditions that caused this to happen.
The problem seems to be caused by a bug introduced in java 1.5, see http://bugs.sun.com/bugdatabase/view_bu … id=6242673
Upgrading 1.5.0_07-b03 or later should fix this problem
