Multiple instances spawned after daylight savings time change

This is a known issue and there is an SAP Knowledge Base Article created on this issue:
1448881 - Multiple instances spawned after daylight savings time change
Below is the information from the SAP Knowledge Base Article:
Symptom
Scheduled reports that are supposed to run once a day, run multiple times.
Duplicate instances are being created.
Environment
BusinessObjects Enterprise XIR2 SP5
BusinessObjects Enterprise XIR2 SP5 + FP5.x
Reproducing the Issue
A report is scheduled to be run on a daily basis - this is a Recurring schedule.
Normally the report runs once a day, at a particular time.
After Daylight Savings Time change, the report runs at the specified time, but immediately after the successful instance, another instance is spawned.
Many more instances spawn after each instance completes.
Cause
This is a known issue: ADAPT01318487. This issue is because of DST and how our code handles this change.
Resolution
There is currently no known fix for this issue. There is however a script that can quickly resolve the problem.
The issue it seems is related to Daily recurring schedules.
What this script will do:
it will run a query to display all your DAILY Recurring jobs
you will have the option to choose your jobs and reschedule them by 1 hour
you will then highlight the same job and change them back by 1 hour
by modifying the schedule times, you are modifying the schedule itself and this will keep the issue of duplicate instances from occurring.
Exact Steps to Complete:
Stop the Job Servers.
Double click on the .hta file.
Change the System Name to that of your CMS name.
Add the Administrator's password.
Click Logon.
Click List All Recurring Instances.
Select All.
Make note of what it says in: Schedule Selected Recurring Instances: Should be 1 hr earlier.
Click Reschedule Selected Recurring Instances.
Choose All instances again and change Schedule Selected Recurring Instances to 1 hour Later.
Click Reschedule Selected Recurring Instances.
Now start your Job Servers.
The issue should not occur again.
The Script is attached here, but please review the SAP Knowledge Base article 1448881 as well

Hi Nicola,
- The multiple spawned instances issue ONLY affects XI3 SP3+ only. For XI3 SP1 and SP2 all Fix Pack levels this is not an issue as it was introduced as a problem in SP3.
- 1568239 notes the Java version and can apply to all O/S environments and is updated to reflect that.
If you are located in Europe you can also apply the patches in advance of the DST change to avoid the problem. If you are in Americas at this point utilizing the clean up scripts for this year is the approach needed to clean up the spawned instances and reschedule the existing schedules.
Thanks,
Chris

HOw do I fix the fact that ical jumped (almost) all my events post daylight savings time change an hour ahead?

A few weeks ago I noticed that everything past 3/8 was an hour ahead, and I assumed once daylight savings time changed it would all jump back. It hasn't, and I don't know how to continue scheduling events or if I should change them all. I read that (a few years ago) the suggestion was give it 24 hours to adjust??

I think this problem is more complex. Background - UK clocks went back at the end of October; the USA went back one week later. I am in the UK and my Outlook calendar contains appointments created in the USA.
Someone in the USA created a recurring appointment before any clocks went back. In Outlook everything is correct. The meeting times are the same each week except for the one week between the two clock changes when, quite correctly, the meeting shows up one hour earlier. When I sync with my iPhone, the meeting shows at the same time every week regardless - this is incorrect.
Someone in the USA created a recurring appointment in the week after the UK clocks went back but before the USA clocks did. Outlook correctly shows the first occurrence as one hour earlier than all the following occurrences. Unfortunately - and this is the really nasty bit - the iPhone shows ALL the appointments one hour earlier than they should be. The only one that is correct is the first one.
This is a nasty bug and something that Apple needs to fix.

JRE Update regarding Daylight Savings Time changes

Hi,
Is there a JRE Update to be released anytime soon dealing with the US Daylight Savings Time changes?
A similar update was released for the DST changes in Australia (JRE 1.5.0 Update 6). The link to information page is:
http://java.sun.com/developer/technicalArticles/Intl/AusTimeZone/
If there is an update coming for US, when would it be?
Thanks,
Vinay.

If you had read through the bugs related to the one
whose link was in the post just before yours, you
would have seen this one:
http://bugs.sun.com/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=639
1777
which appears to answer your question.If I read the bug report right, a fix was made to JDK 1.3.1 to handle the Australia situation. Are you pointing me to the workaround or a potential fix for the US timezone issue?
The bug report says: "This fix is based on tzdata2006a." Does this tzdata file include an entry for the March 2007 onwards change in the US?

How to determine if daylight savings time change will occur automatically

Can any one assist me in determining if a daylight savings time change will occur automatically, or if it will require manual intervention

Your operating system controls your "clock" and any running application only "uses" what it is told.
Not a QuickTime issue. It's up to the user to set the clock.

ICal and iCloud Calendar Appointments Problems Following Daylight Savings Time Change

This morning following the daylight savings time change, I noticed that some but not all of my appointments had shifted forward an hour. Strangely enough, some are correct on the iCloud calendar but are still not correct in iCal. Is anyone else experiencing this problem? Here's another anomaly: the info panel is showing the correct time while the calendar view is not! I have turned off time zone support in both iCal and the iCloud calendar. It's so frustrating when you rely on these tools--especially for appointments--and you find that you can't trust them to be accurate!

samdale67,
Have you had any luck fixing this problem yet?
I just noticed today that my iCloud calendar is consistently one hour behind my iPhone4s calendar. It's as if my iCloud calendar never got the Daylight Savings Time Spring Forward message. The iPhone, on the other hand, updated to DST right on schedule. It's annoying because I'm starting to use my iCloud calendar and would like the time change to be applied.

Dreamweaver CS3 crashes after Daylight Savings Time ends

In Windows XP x64, Dreamweaver CS3 crashes after
Daylight Savings Time ends. There is a technote that seems to
describe the situation exactly.
http://kb.adobe.com/selfservice/viewContent.do?externalId=kb402776&sliceId=1
However...
1) The technote says this happens only with ASP and PHP code.
I'm using ColdFusion. (That's a minor point.)
2) The technote says...
Delete the WinFileCache-AD76BB20.dat file from the
Dreamweaver user configuration folder. Note that on Windows, the
Application Data and AppData folders are hidden by default, so
verify that your Windows Explorer folder options are set to View
Hidden Folders. The location of this file is as follows:
Dreamweaver CS3 on Windows Vista:
C:\Users\[username]\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Dreamweaver
9\Configuration
Dreamweaver CS3 on Windows XP:
C:\Documents and Settings\[username]\Application
Data\Adobe\Dreamweaver 9\Configuration
However, I coudn't find WinFileCache-AD76BB20.dat in
Documents and Settings or in Program Files (86)\Adobe. (The 86 is
because this is a 32-bit program on a 64-bit machine, but all the
rest is the same.) I then searched both directories for *.dat and
there was no file that looked anything like
WinFileCache-AD76BB20.dat.
.Can anybody help me?
Thanks!

Alan, thanks for the suggestion.
I did the search found the file, deleted it, opened
Dreamweaver CS3, selected the same text -- and it crashed as
before.
THEN I REBOOTED and tried again - NO CRASH. So it seems that
a reboot is an essential part of the fix.
BTW: My situation fit the Technote description exactly. (1)
The crash happened when selecting -- in design or code view --
certain text in a context of HTML intermingled with ColdFusion
code; (2) I had no problem with these files before Daylight Savings
ended; (3) even after that I had no problem with them in Macromedia
Dreamweaver 8 on another machine -- the problem was only on CS3.
So the Technote is correct as far as it goes, but should be
amended as follows:
1) ColdFusion should be included in the types of code that
can be associated with the problem.
2) Instead of deleting WinFileCache-AD76BB20.dat, one should
delete WinFileCache-[whatever].dat.
3) A reboot after the deletion may be required.
Anyway, problem solved.
Thank you!

E-Load/e-ME and Daylight Savings Time Change

If you are using e-TEST suite versions 8.10 or older, please see the following knowledge base article on updating your JRE for e-Load and e-Manager Enterprise.
http://qazone.empirix.com/entry.jspa?externalID=201&categoryID=15
(you must be logged into QAZone to view this link)
It is recommended that e-Load and e-Manager Enterprise customers update the JRE on their e-Load and e-ME server machines using the SUN JRE patch referenced in the article.
e-TEST suite version 8.20 which is releasing this week does not require any update.

My problem is that now CFMX 6.1 thinks that it is 8 hours
later in the day
than it really is (it is stuck on GMT now) and I am unable to
get CFMX to
acknowledge the operating systems clock. :-(

The technote for this issue:
http://www.adobe.com/cfusion/knowledgebase/index.cfm?id=d2ab4470
has
another
link to a technote which addresses null pointer exceptions
after upgrading
the
JVM on CFMX 6.1 systems:
http://www.adobe.com/cfusion/knowledgebase/index.cfm?id=kb400232
The hotfix
described in that technote gives a fix for CFLDAP and
CFSERVLET tags after
the
new JVM is installed.
The important thing to note is that Adobe feels that
daylight savings time
will indeed present a problem for ColdFusion applications.
Unfortunately,
the
problems are not explained in any detail. I can guess that
functions like
DateDiff( ) may calculate incorrect values when spanning the
changed weeks
of
daylight savings time. As others have suggested; however,
simply retrieving
the system time, i.e. Now( ) function may not be affected as
long as the
operating system clock is set correctly.
Hope that helps.

CF MX and Daylight Savings Time Change

Next year 2007, the Daylight Saving day (chaning the clocks
for spring and fall) will be changing. The Spring date will be a
month earlier and the fall date a month later then it has been for
years.
How will the Cold Fusion Server for MX 7+ handle this? Will
it use the server time or use the internal CF Server clock?
Thanks.

Why are my appointment off an hour after daylight savings time

After daykight savings time, my appointments are showing 1 hour early. I live in Arizona, isn,t my phone smart enough to know this and not adjust appointment times?

I fixed this problem by going to system preferences--mail, calendars--and turned off time zone support. When my iPhone didn't change time for daylight savings, i had changed the time manually and apparently this moved my time zone from SF to Anchorage. After disabling time zone support, all my appointments were correct. You can also disable tim zone support withon the iCal application on a mac.

IPhone calendar time problem post daylight savings time change

Addendum to the similar post about a one hour differential between iCal and iPhone. THis is not just iCal. I have the same problem on WIndows XP/Outlook 2003. Everythign worked fine until the time change last weekend. Now this is what happens:
Any meeting set up in Outlook BEFORE Daylight Savings that has a start date BEFORE Daylight Savings appears properly on iPhone. FOr example, every Thursday beginning Nov 1 at 8am. THis shows up correct in iPhone at 8am for today, Nov 8.
But, any meeting set up AFTER Daylight Savings shows up one hour later on the iPhone when I sync. SO a meeting I set up in OUtlook for 10am today shows up at 11am on the iPhone.
And, any calendar event I set up on the iPhone AFTER Daylight Savings shows up one hour earlier in Outlook 2003.
THis is a huge problem for me! Both of my calendars are wrong now. PLease help!!! I have tried everything I can:
I tried setting up meetings with the OUtlook Daylight Savings setting enables and disabled: no change. No differnce whether I set up the meeting on my PC or it is an invitation from someone else. I lost all sync history. no change. I overwrote all calendar content (in iPhone advanced options) - no change.
And, as my fellow poster mentions - the tiime on the two systems match.

I think this problem is more complex. Background - UK clocks went back at the end of October; the USA went back one week later. I am in the UK and my Outlook calendar contains appointments created in the USA.
Someone in the USA created a recurring appointment before any clocks went back. In Outlook everything is correct.

2007 Daylight Savings Time Changes

What, if any, effects will the 2007 changes to US daylight savings time have on the operation of the LabVIEW 7 Express development environment and deployed applications created with it?

I believe the answer depends on the OS the application runs under.
If MS has there act together and the machine in question has recieved updates, there should be no issue.
If you are running Unix (or a variation o such), a patch must be applied (at least that was the story my wife gave for working all night Saturday night).
I can not answer this Q for Mac or LV-RT running under Pharlap.

Having problems setting alarm time since daylight savings time change today

Since the change to Daylight Savings time this morning, I am unable to set my alarm correctly. I set it to 2:40 a.m. but the time on the alarm shows 3:40 a.m. I have all the proper settings correctly done. I have powered down the phone numerous times, and still the same result. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

I've cleared the clock cache, powered off the phone and the problem remains the same. I have the Automatic date & time checked, and the same for Automatic time zone (GMT-5:00, Eastern Daylight Time). I have even unchecked both and still get the same result.
What is weird, I can set the alarm for any other time, but unable to set it at 2:40 a.m. When I do this, it sets to 3:40 a.m. Any time that I set from 2:00 a.m. to 2:59 a.m. goes to that time setting in the 3 a.m. time.

Daylight Savings Time changing my calendar!

Because the Pre thinks Daylight Savings Time is effective March 14, now all the appointment times on my Palm Pre calendar are off by one hour. This happened after I updated to webos 1.4.0. Help!

My events also got put off by one hour starting today (second Sunday in March is DST). My events are in a Google calendar, which is set to the correct time zone as is my Pre, and it still happened. Have yet to make sense of it.

Daylight savings time change download?

This must have been asked and answered before, but I haven't seen it: is there a download to re-format the Mac for the new Daylight Savings Time dates?
Piperman

You will need to upgrade to 10.4.8 first, and then run this update:
http://www.apple.com/support/downloads/daylightsavingtimeupdatetiger.html
If software update doesn't show it in Apple menu -> System Preferences -> Software Update and running that.
Before upgrading to 10.4.8, make sure to follow my FAQ*

Daylight Savings Time Change Mar-2007

Is this years new date for DayLight Savings Time going to affect my WRT54G v3.1 router? My firmware is 4.30.5.
Also, does anyone know why the opening admin page for my router say I have a WRT54GL?

Versions 1 - 4 and GL's use the same firmware because they all have the Linux operating system.
The new release firmware for versions 1 to 4 is 4.21.1 If there is no fix for the new DST in 4.30.x it might be in the new release.
