Re: Now() offset by 1 hour
I might be wrong ( i sometimes have been known to be wrong, but not very often) but I thought GMT didnt have daylight savings. I thought GMT was the same all year round, and it was the timezone at London that changed daylight savings. Or is it just that UTC was constant and sometimes was the same as GMT but not always. But if i'm right, maybe you need to set your locale timezone to something other than GMT, thereby automatically adjusting for daylight savings. I dont have the problem, because my timezone is Sydney/Australia - and while my servers are in California and Texas, i have no problem keeping all my ColdFusion time clocks at Sydney time automatically. The server clocks are set to UTC however and I set the timezone to Sydney/Australia. Done.

Re: Now() offset by 1 hour
Correct. GMT is GMT, and always matches UTC.

Now() offset by 1 hour
Hi, Since the clocks went forward in GMT the now() function is returning an incorrect time (-1 hour to what the server clock reads). I have searched over the internet and found several references to this but not solution. Has anyone found a way to fix?

Re: Now() offset by 1 hour
On rare occasion I've had a JVM refuse to get onto the correct timezone, while new and having the correct timezone data and the server having the correct timezone data and even reporting the correct time. 1. Make sure the JVM is reporting the correct timezone. 2. if its not, you can force it with this JVM arg in jvm.config -Duser.timezone=America/New_York If it's reporting the correct timezone, then I think we need to start looking for bugs with JVM 1.7. Unsure about that though.

Re: Now() offset by 1 hour
Yes, it is reporting the correct timezone. I have tried forcing the change to a different timezone, restarting the server and changing it back again but it is still reporting the incorrect time. It could well be a bug in 1.7 although I thought others may have reporting this too yet haven't seen anything.
