Hi all,
I've corrected the issue.
As Bram mentioned, dates are stored in UTC. When you display an item's full
record, ItemTag.java simply pulls the data from the database and displays
it—with no care as to what type of data the string contains. I added a few
lines of code to check if the field represented a date field and then called
the appropriate method in UIUtil.java:
if(values[i].element.equals("date") &&
(values[i].qualifier.equals("accessioned") ||
values[i].qualifier.equals("available") ||
values[i].qualifier.equals("updated")))
{
DCDate dt = new DCDate(values[i].value) ;
String str = UIUtil.displayDate(dt, true, true,
(HttpServletRequest)pageContext.getRequest()) ;
out.print(Utils.addEntities(str)) ;
}
else out.print(Utils.addEntities(values[i].value));
(The highlighted portion is the original code.)

Subject: Re: [Dspace-tech] incorrect timestamps in DSpace
Hi Darren,
at first sight, this looks like a UI specific problem:
In the back-end, dates are just stored as UTC:
https://github.com/DSpace/DSpace/blob/master/dspace-api/src/main/java/org/dspace/content/DCDate.java#L44
JSP UI seems to have a util class that renders the dates according to the
user's locale:
https://github.com/DSpace/DSpace/blob/master/dspace-jspui/dspace-jspui-api/src/main/java/org/dspace/app/webui/util/UIUtil.java#L247
In XMLUI however, the dates seem to be retrieved from the metadata without
transformation into something local.

Hi all,
I have just noticed that the timestamps in DSpace are all off by +4 hours. The
timezone must be set to GMT (I am GMT -4), but I cannot find where to correct
this. Can anyone point me in the right direction please?
