similar to: Strange RODBC problem

Dear All, The recent improvement in RODBC to recognize datetimes in tables has exposed my ongoing confusion. All my data are obtained from a satellite system (Argos) which tags events in the GMT time zone. Daylight saving is ignored. To my way of thinking this means that 1. twelve-o-clock means halfway through the day regardless of season, and 2. the difftime of any two dates where

Hi all, I've been having some trouble with times in regards to daylight savings in R version 2.8.1. I have an ORACLE database that R is importing data in from, for the 2am and 2:30am time intervals for the dates that daylight savings starts the times are getting read as NA values into R. I'm also finding that if I open a R workspace from version 6.2.2,the datetimes are

When the Central European Time was last switched back to standard, at 03:00 last Sunday, the October 30th, a process died on one of my Windows clients with a mysterious "unknown error". When it was restarted it just went merrily on with its task. Luckily it wasn't part of a life support system. I found out that the immediate cause was how file timestamps were interpreted/presented

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 have some questions and comments on timezones. Problem 1. # get current time in current time zone > (now <- Sys.time()) [1] "2003-07-29 18:23:58 Eastern Daylight Time" # convert this to GMT > (now.gmt <- as.POSIXlt(now,tz="GMT")) [1] "2003-07-29 22:23:58 GMT" # take difference > now-now.gmt Time difference of -5 hours Note that the difference

Hi, I have a whole bunch of data, which looks like: 15/03/2003 10:20 1 15/03/2003 10:21 0 15/03/2003 12:02 0 16/03/2003 06:10 0 16/03/2003 06:20 0.5 16/03/2003 06:30 0 16/03/2003 06:40 0 16/03/2003 06:50 0 18/03/2003 20:10 0.5 etc. (times given on a 24 hour clock) and goes on for years. I have some code:

Hi, I'd set the daylight saving option to yes on all the GXP-2000 phones, but apparantly it doesn't move it an hour back on last sunday of October. So now I am stuck will all the phones showing the wrong time. Isn't there an option so that it'll automatically update daylight savings?

Hello all. Our system consists of two linux machines, each running Red Hat 7.1 (kernel 2.4.9-34), using SMB to mount multiple shares hosted by a Windows 2000 Advance Server. smbclient from Samba 2.2.5 is used to do the actual mounting. Over the weekend, a number of files on these SMBFS shares were created with incorrect timestamps (modification times). In some cases, the timestamps were off by

Hello, I'm trying to convert times in the EST/EDT (New York) format to times in the GMT/BST (London) and UTC+9 format (Tokyo). That is, if I know what time it is in New York, what is local time in London and Tokyo? Ex: Here's the conversion from New York EST/EDT time to London's GMT/BST time zone for three days in 2007. Note that the US and London change to daylight savings on

Hi. I'm running on a Windows 98 client and an RS6000 with Samba 2.0.7 (latest). I've used "net time \\ibrissde /SET /YES" to sync the times between the two systems ... but if I save a file onto the RS6000 through Samba on a mapped drive the file in UNIX is 1 hour old. I haven't been able to find any help on this so I'm assuming it's a bug !? This was also true

I have been playing with rsync for several weeks now, and this is the first time I have encountered this problem. Rsync is including files that haven't been updated since the last sync. In fact, it's sending every file in the folder even if it has not been updated. The current options I am using are -v -rl -e, what is causing this to happen? -- View this message in context:

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 ...

I have a data frame that contains dates, but when I use as.POSIXlt() I lose the hours on all records. I traced this down to a particuar hour which causes the issue... > as.POSIXlt('2004-10-31 02:00:00') [1] "2004-10-31" > as.POSIXlt('2004-10-31 03:00:00') [1] "2004-10-31 03:00:00" How do I tell as.POSIXlt() to ignore daylight savings and just convert to

Is there a configuration file in asterisk used for modifying Daylight savings time or is this strictly being dictated by linux? ________________________________ Mark Galley * Systems Administrator acgroup <http://www.bflo.com/> Aurora Consulting Group, Inc. * 7625 Seneca Street * East Aurora, NY 14052 Phone 716.655.9000 X118 * Cell 716.238.3535 * Fax 716.655.4957 * www.BFLO.com

Hi, I have to connect to MSSQL server to get some TimeSeries value (datetime, float) on output. Datetime data type in R is a POSIXct date with information about timezone, daylight or solar time. In the DB I have not this kind of information and this cause some problem at the change of time for energy savings. Any idea on how to connect and have an simple and clear interpretation of date (without

This is a follow-up to the thread ending with: http://rubyforge.org/pipermail/vpim-talk/2008/000120.html I too am in search of some ruby parser for icalendar which properly handles timezones on the datetimes in the icalendar RFC. As I understand it there are actually three types of times. 1) UTC times with a string form of yyyymmddThhmmssZ note the trailing Z indicates zulu time aka utc. 2)
