--------------------------------
Resolution: Not A Problem
> Dates are one day off before saved
> ----------------------------------
>
> Key: FINERACT-1379
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FINERACT-1379
> Project: Apache Fineract
> Issue Type: Task
> Affects Versions: 1.5.0
> Reporter: Victor Jo
> Priority: Major
> Attachments: cloud_watch_logs_ecs.png
>
>
> I'm currently running Fineract on AWS ECS Fargate. Whenever a resource is
> created on the system (client, savings account etc.), the dates are moved
> back by one before eventually persisted. Note, when running locally, the
> dates are persisted correctly just as it should be.
> I put some logs and inspected them on aws cloudwatch to really track the
> process.
>
> From the attached image. The *{color:#172b4d}JsonParserHelper{color}*
> correctly extracts the dates from the request body.
> Then the logs from the *Client* class shows the final date after
> {code:java}
> Date.from(activationDate.atStartOfDay(DateUtils.getDateTimeZoneOfTenant()).toInstant());{code}
> {color:#172b4d}is executed for the respective parameters (in this case:
> submittedOnDate, activationDate and officeJoiningDate). The tenants on the
> system all have timezones on the *_fineract_tenants.tenants_* table
>
> This same thing happens on other parts of the project where a date is being
> used.
> {color}
> Does{color:#172b4d} any one have any suggestions [~vorburger] ?
> Thanks.{color}
>
> *{color:#172b4d}UPDATE:{color}*
> {color:#172b4d}I was able to manually set the timezone on the docker
> container and also added a jvm argument
> {color}*_{color:#172b4d}-Duser.timezone=Africa/Cairo{color}_*{color:#172b4d}.
> Unfortunately for a different tenant with a different time zone the dates
> will be interpreted wrongly. The snippet added to my docker file.{color}
>
> {code:java}
> ...
> RUN apt-get install -y tzdata
> RUN ls /usr/share/zoneinfo && rm -rf /etc/localtime && ln -s
> /usr/share/zoneinfo/Africa/Cairo /etc/localtime && echo "Africa/Cairo" >
> /etc/timezone
> ...{code}
