I just realized something is amiss. I have 2 calendars of dates - one in March, the other in October. The Calendar view for March is one hour behind - which I believe is probably Daylight Savings time. The one in October is correct.

If I change the site's timezone or some of the actual Date's timezone info - it flips.

This only happens in a Calendar view. View of the node/list of nodes work fine. I have themed the dates (date1 and date2).

I noticed that the offsets are different - one is -28800 the other -25200. I created two new pieces of data with two different months (March and October) just to make sure.

I'm going live soon and I'm wondering what combination of things need to happen in order for this to work.

I'm using Drupal 5.1
Date 5.x-1.5
Calendar 5.x-1.4
Views 5.x-1.5

My server is EDT
I set the Server's timezone is set for GMT -0700
I set the Date to use Site's timezone with America/Los Angeles as the Advanced timezone

Is there a combination that works? I've seen a bunch of things written for Drupal 4.7 and other discussions in Groups about the "date off by 1" issue. I'm trying to find out mainly if this is something I need to program around or if there is a configuration I can use.

Thanks for the help!

Jill

This is actually a Calendar issue which should be fixed in latest code.

This isn't fixed in the 4.7.x branch yet.

ps: is it correct protocol to reactivate and move an issue like I just did? CB

This should be fixed in the 5.2 version, which is not quite ready for an official release. You can see that release if you look for 'other releases' on the project page. Try it in a test environment, or be prepared to update it as bugs are found and fixed.

We have the same problem. Someone said "This should be fixed in the 5.2 version, which is not quite ready for an official release." I thought we are at 6.1?

srcerer, did you solve your problem?

reporting similar problem.

It's displaying the event time 2 hours earlier in the calendar than on the node. Site's timezon == user's timezone.
If I change the CCK field to convert to UTC I get a duplicate entry..

Like say I have an entry from 21.00 - 23.00 than it would become 19.00 - 21.00 without timezone conversion and with it it would be 21.00 - 21.59 & 22.00 - 22.59
Why does it get split up?

This is in D6
