(I reported the test failure mentioned below to R-help but was advised that this list is the right one to address the issue; in the meantime I investigated the matter somewhat more closely, including searching recent R-devel postings, since I haven't been following this list.) Last May there were two reports here of problems with Sys.timezone, one where the zoneinfo directory is in a

Hi all, I have been using Red Hat for a very long time and run CentOS 4 on some of my production servers. One of the things that has bugged me for a long time is the fact in the Time Zone configuration there is not a selection for UTC or GMT. As a work around I have been linking the /etc/localtime -> /usr/share/zoneinfo/UTC which works, but when Yum auto updates to a new version it

Hi! I am using wine to compile code for Texas Instruments dsp's. One step in the process is generating code from a graphic configuration file (tcf). When I try to do that, it fails with some Java related messages. The -b in my command tells tconf.exe to run in batch mode, so it doesn't try to open a GUI or something like that. I ran the same command in a dos-shell and it worked

One problem with the daylight savings is that they mess with reporting tools that use timestamps. I guess an application could be configured to log UTC instead of local time, but that's not always doable. Also, if you have servers in several different timezones, it's better if all systems follow the same clock. So, I'm thinking it's perhaps better if I just use

I am having a terrible time getting the hardware clock, system clock and the time served to my winXX boxes to jive on my Mandrake 7.2/Samba 2.07 machine. I have my clock file, timezone and localtime links set to America/Chicago. No matter what I do, if I use UTC for my hwclock, my system clock on the Linux box is fine, but samba passes system time +6 hours to the windows clients. (Yes I know CST =

I don't think my original post made it, so here is a repost of my problem.

Hello Everyone, The timezone is set correctly on the OS America/Toronto: mv /etc/localtime /etc/localtime.bak cp /usr/share/zoneinfo/America/Toronto /etc/localtime I even tried adding the timezone setting to sip.conf: timezone=America/Toronto However. Asterisk wants to be in Bucharest? Thinking about it, I want to be in Bucharest! Cheers, Nick.

Hello, I have a problem configuring the timezone on a CentOS 5.5 server. I would like the timezone to be Europe/Paris. I have followed the steps described here: http://www.wikihow.com/Change-the-Timezone-in-Linux I think I have changed the appropriate configuration files ( /etc/localtime, /etc/sysconfig/clock ), but the output of the ?date? command still indicates the timezone is EST. [root

Hello everyone I wonder if anyone can point me to the library for timezone management with DST support, which has timezones, like flickr has. I know that there is TZInfo, but it''s a bit different for it has huge list of available timezones in ''Continent/City'' format. I would like my application to have timezones list more like on flickr (or windows regional settings) -

Just upgraded 4.7 to 4.8 stable. Hoped that timezone info will be up to date, but it still isn't though files in /usr/share/zoneinfo show new dates. For instance daylight saving time settings are outdated in Europe/Vilnius file. I'll try to recompile those files from sources got fom ftp://elsie.nci.nih.gov/pub/ but it would be nice to have updated info for the next release of freebsd or

Hi guys, I've run into an odd little problem. We use SquirrelMail as the basis for our webmail. Recently I've had a user complaining that the "Received" time on mail in the Sent folder has changed between logins. The change is always been by +1 hours or -5 hours. While checking, our developer had a time changed by +2 hours. On refresh it changed back. He poked through the code

Hi, I''ve been trying to do timezone conversion, and have some trouble getting it to work on my Windows machine. Searching the web, I found http://wiki.rubyonrails.com/rails/pages/HowtoSetDefaultTimeZone ...which explains how to set the default timezone. I''m using an environment.rb that include the lines: ActiveRecord::Base.default_timezone = :utc ENV[''TZ''] =

From Peter Dalgaard announcement earlier today. CHANGES IN R 3.4.3: INSTALLATION on a UNIX-ALIKE: * A workaround has been added for the changes in location of time-zone files in macOS 10.13 'High Sierra' and again in 10.13.1, so the default time zone is deduced correctly from the system setting when R is configured with --with-internal-tzcode (the default on

Friends, So there I was, minding my own business, trying to make my rails app timezone aware (DST, as well), since it''s all about the timing with this one. There are a number of excellent articles that I''ve been working off of, in particular this one internet archived version of Scott Barron''s very useful article on the subject that is no longer available at the
