Sun's website appears to have 1.4.2_13 as the latest. Are we safe installing that version, or should we stick to 1.4.2_11? We're running CFMX 7.

RE: Daylight Savings Time Change (Slightly OT, but relevant)
Read Adobie's Tech Note on the issue. That gives you the link and tells you which one to download. Here is Ben Forta's blog with the links to the Tech notes: http://www.forta.com/blog/index.cfm/2007/2/6/ColdFusion-And-Daylight-Sav ings-Time-Changes If you have 6.1, you will need to install at least updater 1. If you have 7, you will need to install at least updater two (7.0.2) The new JVM can be found at: http://java.sun.com/products/archive/index.html. According to the tech note you want the full SDK version. Look at the 8th drop down from the top of the page which says J2SDK/J2RE - 1.4 Select 1.4.2_11 from the list with is the SECOND from the top in the drop down. According to the tech note you want 11, which is the latest version tested with CF, but NOT necessary the latest version out. Then download the appropriate version depending on whether you have windows or Linux; 32 bit or 64 bit etc. Once you install the new JRE, point your server to it in the jvm.config file and restart the CF services. Also make sure you have the OS on that server patched, or updated for the new DST as well. Hope that helps. ~Brad -Original Message- From: Christopher Jordan [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, March 13, 2007 4:57 PM To: CF-Talk Subject: Re: Daylight Savings Time Change (Slightly OT, but relevant) Hi Ben, I'm looking on sun's site for the 1.4.2_11, but can't find it.

No, you're not blind, it's hard to find. The link to the older versions is way down at the bottom of the page. And yes, you need the full SDK. That messed me up at first.

RE: Daylight Savings Time Change (Slightly OT, but relevant)
Am I missing something? What's got a lot of organization in crisis mode over this? Does it just concern large organizations whose functions are time-sensitive? A lot of computing functionality is time-sensitive. Logins, for example, can be time-sensitive. In an Active Directory environment using Kerberos, time discrepancies could keep everyone from being able to log into their desktops! Am I ok just manually changing my pc's, laptops, and servers on Sunday? It depends on what those computers are running, but probably, in your case, it would be ok.

Re: Daylight Savings Time Change (Slightly OT, but relevant)
You can modify the time zone DST within Microsoft Windows on any version using the time zone editor. You can download it from Microsoft and adjust the settings for your time zone and it will allow your OS adjust automatically. I have tested this on XP, Windows 2000, NT 4 and Win 98 and it works correctly. Here is the link http://support.microsoft.com/gp/cp_dst Dan - Original Message - From: Robert Harrison [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: CF-Talk cf-talk@houseoffusion.com Sent: March 09, 2007 10:00 AM Subject: Daylight Savings Time Change (Slightly OT, but relevant) FYI: In case you have not heard the dates on which we change to Daylight Savings Time have changed. It used to be we went on Daylight Savings Time the first Sunday in April and off the last Sunday in October. That has changed as Daylight Savings Time has been extended to help conserve electricity. This year we go on Daylight Savings Time this Sunday, March 11th at 2AM and go off Daylight Savings Time the first Sunday in November. This change was legislated by Congress and was unplanned, so it has not been programmed into may computer systems and may affect computer, as follows: 1. If you are using Windows Vista and have automatic updates turned on you should get an automatic download that will fix this problem. In this case, do nothing. 2. If you are using Windows Vista and do not have automatic updates turned on, you must either manually update your operating system with Microsoft Vista updates or you must manually reset your time as instructed below. To update your computer manually go to: http://windowsupdate.microsoft.com/ http://windowsupdate.microsoft.com/ http://windowsupdate.microsoft.com/ 3. If you are using Windows XP in your office and are connected to a network, your system administrator may have loaded a Windows patch, in which case you do nothing. Check with your system administrator to see how this affects your corporate network and what your should do. 4. If you are using Windows XP at home (THIS APPLIES TO MOST PEOPLE) you will need to manually adjust your computer time. See the instructions below. 5. If you are using a MAC and are on OSX there is a patch you can download at http://www.macupdate.com/info.php/id/24267 to fix this problem. If you are on an older MAC you'll need to manually reset your time. So remember, this Saturday night or Sunday morning (March 11, 2007), set your clocks ahead one hour. If you are on Windows XP and need to manually reset your computer (MOST OF US), follow the instructions below. 1. Open your Control Panel (Start/Control Panel). 2. Double Click on Date and Time. This open the Date/Time dialog box. 3. Select the Time Zone tab and make sure the box that says Automatically Adjust Clock for Daylight Savings Time is NOT CHECKED. If it is checked, UNCHECK it by clicking on the box (if you leave it checked it will adjust your time again later, on the wrong day and mess up you time setting). 4. Now select the Date Time tab. In the time box, set your clock ahead one hour. 5. Press the Apply button. That is all. Hope this was helpful.

RE: Daylight savings time
Shawn, You might want to check out the GetTimeZoneInfo() function. From the docs: GetTimeZoneInfo Description Returns a structure that contains time zone information for the computer on which it is executed. The structure contains four elements with the following keys: * utcTotalOffsetoffset of the local time, in minutes, from Universal Coordinated Time (UTC). A plus sign (+) indicates that a time zone is west of UTC, such as the time zones in North and South America. A minus sign (-) indicates that a time zone is east of UTC, such as the time zones in Germany. * utcHourOffsetoffset, in hours of local time, from UTC. * utcMinuteOffsetoffset, in minutes, after the hours offset is taken into account. For North America, this is always 0. For countries that are not exactly on the hour offset, the number is between 0 and 60. For example, standard time in Adelaide, Australia has an offset of 9 hours and 30 minutes from UTC. * isDSTOnTrue if Daylight Savings Time (DST) is on in the host; False if DST is off.

RE: Daylight Savings Time
My hypothetical answer is this: 1) Granted that the server clocks tonight went from 1:59am to 1:00am the cold fusion variables would notice no change in time therefore: 2) a coldfusion variable set for 2am expiration or later, would last another hour (granted 2am isn't going to happen for a bit longer), while a variable set for 1:59am or earlier would've timed out at the normally scheduled time.

RE: daylight savings time..... CF is reporting the wrong value for now
Tobe, I believe this problem is due to a bug in the VisualC++. This is a known bug which you can read more about here: http://msdn.microsoft.com/visualc/headlines/2001.asp As you can see, the bug has been known about for a number of years. Not sure if Allaire has a patch out for 4.01, but 4.5x should not be affected by the bug. This is not an Allaire problem per-se, but they should have at least released a patch for it. This problem will only occur for one week-it stems from the fact that daylight savings occurred on April 1st and it thinks it should have occurred until the 8th. I suspect you may be able to fix the problem also by temporarily unchecking the "Automate daylight savings time" or selecting a time-zone that's not affected by Daylight Savings, but I haven't tested this. -Dan -Original Message- From: Tobe Goldfinger [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Monday, April 02, 2001 12:48 PM To: CF-Talk Subject: daylight savings time.
