[jira] [Commented] (OPENMEETINGS-143) Scheduling new event results in incorrect date/time

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OPENMEETINGS-143?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13249614#comment-13249614 ] 

adeel nazir commented on OPENMEETINGS-143:
------------------------------------------

Any thoughts on what the issue may be? Is there a simple way to debug this (preferably without setting up a full eclipse dev environment)? Does Openmeetings expect the timezone to be Etc/GMT-8 and not set as America/Los_Angeles?

>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: SOAP/REST API
>    Affects Versions: 2.0 Apache Incubator Release
>         Environment: Gentoo Linux 64bit with sun-jdk-1.6.0.31 & ant-1.8.1 & postgresql-9.1, openmeetings SVN rev 1310803

> I've noticed that whenever I try to schedule an event, it is created 24 hours earlier rather than the specified date. For example, if create an event on the 18th of April, the invite and displayed scheduled event is shown on the 17th of April, a full day prior. The server has its timezone set to PDT (GMT-8) while my user account is set to EDT (GMT-5). I've verified that postgresql is set to having a timezone of GMT-8, and that the system time is correct.
> Additionally, I've noticed that the Calender UI shows the time of the events in the server timezone, rather than the user timezone; it would be better to show the events in the local timezone of the user viewing the calendar.
> This is an SVN build of openmeetings, using revision 1310803.
