Key: DS-1062
URL: https://jira.duraspace.org/browse/DS-1062
Project: DSpace
Issue Type: Bug
Components: DSpace API
Affects Versions: 1.7.2, 1.7.1, 1.7.0, 1.6.2, 1.6.1, 1.6.0, 1.5.2, 1.5.1,
1.5.0

Fix For: post-1.8.0
Attachments: Subscribe.java.patch
There is currently a bug in the collection subscription feature caused by an
oversight in date-time calculation. It manifests itself by erroneously include
the same item in multiple daily mailings, i.e. an item submitted yesterday
would appear in emails sent both today and tomorrow. The specific issue was
caused by converting the current datetime from default timezone to UTC, then
truncating the time and timezone offset information. Since the bug involves the
offset of the local timezone from UTC, the effects of this bug are more
significant the farther away from UTC time. It is possible to mitigate the
effect by changing the time of the subscription cron job to be later than the
UTC offset.
