First, I verified that both timezones are set in the same timezone (GMT +01:00 Europe/Amsterdam). There is a funny thing though, that is when I use the command "date +%::z" it prints "+02:00:00", when it should only be +01:00:00... Anyway, I don't think this can be the source of the problem...
Then I tried to make several tests, changing some of the properties I think that may influence this weird behaviour... and I found some very strange things. Here you have the sequence of actions on my tests: ------------------- TIMEZONE Amsterdam START GTG ADD new task in GTG "Amsterdam TEST" due date 1/6/2010 SYNC - Date in RTM goes to 31/05/2010 CHANGE DATE in task RTM to 2/6/2010 SYNC - Date in GTG is not updated CHANGE (not updated) DATE in GTG to 5/6/2010 - Date in RTM is changed to 4/6/2010 (one day before the day set in GTG) (At this moment I have the appointment in 5/6/2010 in GTG and 4/6/2010 in RTM) QUIT GTG TIMEZONE change to GMT/London in both systems START GTG ADD new task in GTG "London TEST" due date 1/6/2010 SYNC - Date in RTM is kept in 1/6/2010!!! CHANGE DATE in task RTM to 2/6/2010 (The previous appointment (Amsterdam TEST) date in RTM changed to 5/6/2010! it looks like GTG uploads again the task with the GTG date) SYNC CHANGE DATE in GTG to 5/6/2010 - Date in RTM is in fact changed to 5/6/2010! (At this moment we have both "London TEST" and "Amsterdam Test" with due date as they should 5/6/2010 QUIT GTG TIMEZONE change to Amsterdam START GTG SYNC - Both appointments dates in RTM are changed from 5/6/2010 to 4/6/2010 ADD in GTG "Amsterdam TEST 2" due date 1/6/2010 SYNC - Date in RTM goes to 31/05/2010 TIMEZONE change to Berlin START GTG SYNC - In RTM all the appointments keep the same dates ADD in GTG "Berlin TEST" due date 1/6/2010 SYNC - Date in RTM goes to 31/05/2010 QUIT GTG TIMEZONE in RTM GMT/London and in GTG to GTM/London (time in local machine set to not us time server... so I can use the GMT timezone but still have a correct time in my machine) START GTG ADD in GTG "Amsterdam TEST 3" due date 1/6/2010 SYNC - All RTM dates are set correctly!!! CHANGE date in RTM SYNC - Date in GTG is updated! ------------------- I am still not completely sure how I should interpret these results... but somehow this is only working when I set both times to GMT/London... However, this is very weird, since I am also using another tool to manage my tasks (Tasque) and it manages to be consistent with RTM even in other timezones... Another thing I noticed is that the Synchronisation button does not work every time I try to synchronise with RTM... I am not sure whether this is due to GTG or the fact I am trying to do this very often and RTM tries to control the number of accesses... In conclusion it seems that with this setup it works... but it is a bit strange, since I have to change my timezone to a different one... Any idea why this works this way? -- RTM plugin uploads dates one day before https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/493176 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Gtg contributors, which is subscribed to Getting Things GNOME!.
