There are known issues with the JVM install that can cause it to not use the correct timezone, setting the timezone in your JVM settings in the Coldfusion Admin ( Standard Edition ) can often fix the problem.

Cheers

Stephen,

The timezone one maybe an optional hotfix so you might have to grab it
straight off them, that said from memory I believe that the timing was
off anyway for that 1 week, even with patching.

You would really have to find out where along the line is the dates
being thrown out wrong. Without knowing how your process for this
function looks like, my best guess is that you have a function
somewhere which adjust the dates/time for the report? i.e. if your
report ran across daylight saving dates and dates where there is no
daylight saving, it will try to match up the time and dates? so that
you wont magically have missing gaps or disappearing times like you
have now.

Just that the dates have been so kindly changed by the Federal Govt
without forcing MS to push out patches to reflect the daylight saving
changeover date to the same day across the states. Whatever this
function was looking at comparing is probably just picking up the now
wrong set of dates?


Good Luck,
Chong

Hi Kym,

We host the server so yes the daylight saving is on and timezones are
correct on the server, I have also tried running the application on the
server so I knew the settings for both would match and they still have the
problem.

I download the latest flash play with no effect.

The windows PC has the latest updates from MS including optional updates.

Thanks.

Stephen Davey

Hi Stephen,

Whenever I request a date in the period 31/3/08 to 7/4/08 it's out by an
hour hence it causes problems with all my reports for that period.
      
E.g.  31/3/08 becomes 30/3/08 at 11pm.
      
Was there a fix for the daylight saving in Australia, I have the latest
JVM being 1.4.2_11 .
      
Two questions can be asked from the server end of things:-
1. Does the server run daylight savings at all? Many hosting shops
don't, it's +10 here all the time.

2. If it does run daylight savings was the MS patch done? This year MS
got caught short and the patch was not a compulsory one so unless the
admin deliberately put it in then its not there.
