Hi,

We have an obscure problem with a date-field in the Syncope Console.

For the SyncopeUser a birthdate attribute is added with type Date. It is not 
possible to add this specific date for that attribute: 16 may 1940. Before that 
the Netherlands used their own timezone and on that date (during WWII) the 
timezone was switched to CET. There is no problem for 15 may 1940 or 17 may 
1940.

Yes it is a bit of an edge case and only 2 out of 4 million accounts have this 
problem so it is not a big problem however it is annoying because those 
SyncopeUsers cannot be changed via the Console.

By the way: the problem does not occur when using the REST API so their is a 
workaround.

After some searching I found Wicket tries to adjust the timezone for dates 
between client and server (DateConverter(boolean applyTimeZoneDifference)) 
using the Joda Library which fails for that specific date. Is there a way to 
disable this timezone converting in Syncope/Wicket? Preferably by 
configuration. There is no need for it in this specific situation.

Thanks in advance,
Rob
