I want to store, retrieve and handle all times inside my app in just one Timezone. => "New Delhi" for that I''ve set in my application.rb file, config.time_zone = "New Delhi" When i create a record like Event.create(:when => DateTime.new(2011, 5, 7, 16, 0, 0)) it creates an event record in my mysql db (local) with "when" field as "2011-05-07

For various reasons we need to use the CONVERT_TZ() function in mysql to convert times during queries. The timezone to be used in the conversion is based on the timezone the user selected when setting up their profile (from a select box populated with ActiveSupport::TimeZone.us_zone). The problem is that the zone names in rails differ from the names in MySQL. In rails we have a name like

Hello, I'm using Asterisk 1.4.14, and I've noticed that the emails that are sent out when a user gets a voicemail don't have the timezone set in the header, so they're appearing in the user's email clients at the wrong time. Has anyone else seen this? I didn't find any bug reports or other info with Google. -- Jason Martin Metrix Matrix, Inc. 785 Elmgrove Road,

Hello, I must be doing something wrong that's very obvious. But I just don't see it. I changed my Windows Time Zone to GMT and my Financial Center to Montreal. But I still get several warnings. >Sys.timezone() [1] "GMT Daylight Time" >myFinCenter [1] "Montreal" >Sys.timeDate() [1] "Montreal" [1] [2005-04-19 10:55:02] Warning messages: 1: Set

Le''s say that I have a table called people and the column middle_name is nullable. If the user enters say blank or empty space then in the database it is recorded as empty space. I would like in all my models all empty spaces to be recorded as null. I guess I can write a plugin which will do so for all the models but I''m sure something like that should already be existing.I

Hi I must be slipping, but say I have a string that looks like: 3/11/2012 2:50:00 AM If I use the UTC timezone and ask it to parse this time, what would you expect the result to be? Personally, I''d say 3/11/2012 2:50:00 AM UTC Given this is the DST switchover date (for some places) this is an edge case. It''s the "spring forward" rule so 2:50 AM is 3:50... But

validates_presence_of :fname results in the error message "Fname can''t be blank". What I want is "First Name can''t be blank". I could do this def validate errors.add_to_base("First Name can''t be blank") if fname.blank? end I find this clunky and I have to put everyrhing in the validate method. Is there an easy to get what I want. I

We recently upgraded (as in, backup, reinstall, selective restore) a couple of servers from CentOS-3.9 to CentOS-5.1. This generally went smoothly but we've encountered one confusing problem with syslog. Under CentOS-3, syslog entries were always dated in the host local timezone. With CentOS-5.1, they're dated in UTC *most* of the time, but occasionally in the local timezone. This has

Hi, I have a website in production wich uses a lot of date and time calculations to show specific information. The timezone of my hosting service (Dreamhost) is PDT, and the timezone of my potential clients is CEST. There are 9 hours of difference between them. Is there an environment variable that I could adjust in my rails application, so all date/time values be set to CEST timezone? Thanks.

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'' I can see that the mapping I''m looking for is

Dear R-devels, timedatectl binary used by Sys.timezone does not always work reliably. If it doesn't the warning is raised, unnecessarily because later on Sys.timezone gets timezone successfully from /etc/timezone. This obviously might not be true for different linux OSes, but it solves the issue for simple dockerized Ubuntu 16.04. Current behavior R Under development (unstable) (2018-05-04

I''m not sure I''m understanding this correctly. I have a user model that is for all of my user accounts. Each user account has a time zone. I added this line to automatically create a TimeZone object for that user using their timezone: composed_of :tz, :class_name => ''TimeZone'', :mapping => %w(time_zone name) I also changed my environment.rb to

Hi, I was just *highly* surprised to find out that R 2.8.0 (Windows XP) changes the timezone-interpretation during operations on time data, as apparently the timezone attribute is lost and then, for the next interpretation of the timezone, the system settings are used. Here is sample code (executed under a platform with the system timezone managed by Windows set to "CET", but note

Hi all, I used to do manual installs so I would set the timezone each time. I have now migrated to kickstart and I wish to use a command line (at boot) parameter to set the needed timezone. I am familiar with timeconfig and that works. I tried timeconfig --help (looking for command line arguments) and there appears to not be a command line way that I see to set the timezone. I have seen

Dear all, As of the current R alpha release, I'm seeing timezone-related warnings on installing any package (including the recommended ones), which I haven't seen before. For example, [~/Documents/Source/R-alpha]$ bin/R CMD INSTALL ~/git/tractor/lib/reportr * installing to library '/Users/jon/Documents/Source/R-alpha/library' * installing *source* package 'reportr' ...
