Re: [Geoserver-users] Time Zone issue with dates using GeoServer WFS

Re: [Geoserver-users] Time Zone issue with dates using GeoServer WFS
Thanks for your reply Andrea. I have Geoserver installed as a Windows service and am not too knowledgeable on the Java environment – is this an application that can be installed to link into Geoserver to change the settings then? Am I able to change the Geoserver config settings to reflect the below through the config files if this isn’t possible using the UI?

[Geoserver-users] Time Zone issue with dates using GeoServer WFS
Hi I have a PostGIS table which I am serving through Geoserver v2.5 that has a date format column of dates. Using this table, I have created a web application which uses an ajax request to pull through the fields from this table via the Openlayers 3 WFS read features format. The problem I am encountering is, for any dates that fall within British summer time (GMT Daylight Saving Time), it appears to be moving the actual date back by one day (i.e. for a date stored as 8th September 1993 in PostGIS, it is displaying as 07/09/1993 in my HTML / Javascript web application). The field is not a timestamp field, it is just a date field so from what I can gather it shouldn't be storing any information on time zones? I have asked this question on both the Openlayers stack overflow group and on a coding forum specifically dealing with javascript and it doesn't appear to be an issue with how the date is being formatted, so I am wondering if there could be any potential problems when serving the table through Geoserver? Does anyone have any possible things I can check to see why this might be occurring? Thanks, Chris -- Attend Shape: An AT&T Tech Expo July 15-16.
