Roller 4.0 RC5 and the Blog Archive Calendar

[Jonathan Chen <da...@gmail.com>]

Hi,

I'm using the "basic" theme with the Blog Archive Calendar on the
right column, and I'm noticing that the dates are off by one day. When
I hover over October 3rd, the link is actually {.../date/20071002};
and when I click on it, the entries for October 2nd are shown.

Cheers.

Just to follow up - The problem was traced back to Windows 2000 and
its timezone handling: the JVM was running with a timezone that was
different from the operating system's, possibly due to recent Daylight
Savings changes in NZ. With some Googling,
http://bugs.sun.com/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=4762673 revealed
the cause (a Windows bug) and the fix (change the timezone to
something else and back). Everything looks good now.

Cheers.

Hi Dave,

I've got the blog is running on "Pacific/Auckland" for its timezone.
I've just retested this under Windows and FreeBSD, and it looks like
the problem only occurs with Windows. I'll dig around some more and
see if I can figure out what's going on.

Cheers.

I can't duplicate that one.

What timezones do you have set for your Java VM and your blog?
