Hello, Using rails 2.3.9 and ruby 1.8.7 I am trying add time zone in the site according to user''s time zone (selected by the user from the drop down of time zones)Code is done as follows, but time zone is not getting saved in the database. IN Application Controller before_filter :set_time_zone def set_time_zone Time.zone = current_user.time_zone if current_user end IN View form(haml) f.time_zone_select :time_zone, ActiveSupport::TimeZone.all.sort IN Environment.rb config.time_zone = ''UTC'' IN User table added time_zone as string column -- You received this...

Hi, I''m after a way of ensuring all my Time work (e.g. using Time.now) uses the time zone I define as default. To do this I''ve set the following line in config/environment.rb: config.time_zone = ''Brisbane'' But even after this, if I open up "./script/console" I note that Time.now doesn''t work. That is I see: ?> Time.now => Thu Feb 25 16:45:36 -0800 2010 ?> ?> Time.zone.now => Fri, 26 Feb 2010 10:45:33 EST +10:00 >>...

...Netherlands... I have started using rails a few weeks ago, I did read the Agile Webdevelopment with Rails book, and I generally started to love Rails for it''s sheer beauty and intelligent structure... However I came across something that puzzles me quite a bit. It''s how to add a time_zone_select form field using a composed_of class with mapped utc_offset and name fields... In my form I have: <%= time_zone_select(''user'',''time_zone'') %> In my user-class I have: composed_of :time_zone, :class_name => ''TimeZone'', :mappin...

Does anyone know the best way to track time zone information. There doesn''t seem to be much documentation on this. So far it seems like a simple db field like create table accounts ( id int unsigned not null auto_increment, name varchar(50) not null, time_zone varchar(50) not null, ... primary key (id) ) and a class like class Account < AR ... composed_of :time_zone, :class_name => TimeZone, :mapping => %w(time_zone name) end There also seems to be a TZInfo library that supports daylight savings. It seems strange that the TimeZone...

Hi, I''m trying to run Puppet on a RHEL 6 box using apache through passenger. I recently added the Inventory service, but I''m now getting the following error: Value assigned to config.time_zone not recognized.Run "rake -D time" for a list of tasks for finding appropriate time zone names. I''m not seeing any tell-tell logs from /var/log/httpd/* or /var/log/messages. Any ideas on where the root of this problem is? Thanks, Michael Altfield -- You received this messag...

Hi. Using this: <%= time_zone_select("account", "time_zone" %> I get a list of time zones options, like eg.: <option value="Athens">(GMT+02:00) Athens</option> But as I''m using TZInfo::Timezone, I need to map ''Athens'' to ''Europe/Athens'&...

Hi all, I''m on a rails 2.3.5 app. I''ve got my timezone set to ''Brussels''; config.time_zone = ''Brussels'' When I use mysql I see that a date is stored in UTC (as expected); e.g. 2010-04-07 15:03:10 When I use console to print out the date it correctly returns; >> job.created_at.strftime(''%d %b %Y, %H:%M'') => "07 Apr 2010, 17:03" Th...

...what I mean: We want to be able to access the user''s timezone attribute as a TZInfo::Timezone object instance so that we can say things like: @current_user.tz.utc_to_local(some_date_time_object) But whenever I used the standard aggregation shown in examples on this topic, the drop down time_zone_select for TZInfo doesn''t recognize the user''s previous selection! So I got around that like thus: i. created a string field on the user model called time_zone ii. added an accessor tz that will give us the object support def tz TZInfo::Timezone.get(self.time_zone) end...

Hi All How do I determine (on the server-side) for an incoming request the time zone of the client. I''ve studied the ''request'' parameter but didn''t see anything like a TZ. Any suggestion how to do this ? Cheers LuCa ps I need the TZ to convert Dates/Times correctly on a 2nd server (this 2nd server need the TZ!) -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

...One problem that I have encountered is how to make rails 3 read/write date/time data into the DB in localtime. In Rails 2.3.8, commenting out the ActiveRecord timezone settings did the trick, however in Rails 3, that doesn''t work as the default is now UTC. I have tried setting the config.time_zone to local timezone, but Rails 3 still insist on saving in UTC. Changing the date/time data in my DB is not really an option as there are other integrated systems that are relying on localized timezone data. Is there a way retain the old behavior of Rails 2.3.8? -- Posted via http://www.ruby-foru...

Here is the following from my console: >> Time.now => Mon Sep 22 11:33:34 +0200 2008 >> Time.now.utc_offset => 7200 >> TimeZone[Time.now.utc_offset] => #<TimeZone:0x11aea90 @tzinfo=nil, @utc_offset=7200, @name="Athens"> >> Time.now.in_time_zone(TimeZone[Time.now.utc_offset]) => Mon, 22 Sep 2008 12:34:22 EEST +03:00 (I am in Spain - CET - and running on OS X with the correct timezone) The Time.now correctly gives me the time, and the correct UTC offset of 2 hours. It is the summer, so we are 2 hours ahead of UTC. We are still one hour...

There''s got to be an easier way... I am building an event manager and as part of it, the user selects the time zone of the event from a drop-down list using the time_zone_select helper. This is stored in the events table as a string. Because of legacy data which is stored in UTC, I want to keep the dates and times in the table as UTC but when I display it, I want to show the abbreviated version of the time zone value as selected. For example, if the user created a...

My environment.rb contains config.time_zone = ''UTC'' If my understanding is correct, rails should assume time values coming from the database are UTC, and since config.time_zone is set to ''UTC'', it should not try to convert the times. Instead, rails is assuming that the db values are Eastern (my local zon...

I sent this earlier but I don''t think it ever came through. Sorry if this is a reposting. When using :priority_zones for time_zone_select in a manner described by the API docs for ActionView::Helpers::FormOptionsHelper I''m getting errors.
