System.master_timezone vs. system.default.timezone

Hi Guys,
I have a question when it comes to TimeZones - I found that setting the system master time zone the system can normalize the time stamps to one point in time, independent of the users time zone settings; and then based on those calculate the local time for the user.
So - if you want to use normalizing; you need to set both system.default.timezone and system.master_timezone in the system properties?
Furthermore, I know how to add additional time zones, but I am not clear on how DST is handled - which format for adding a time zone do I have to follow so that DST calculations are done correctly? Does it make sense to set the Master Time Zone to UTC (when the server is located in the UK anyway)?
Thank you.
/Anita

Hi Anita,
The system.master_timezone should be set to the time zone of the DB server. The system.default.timezone is used for setting the time zone for company, supplier record, etc during creation. So for example, when a user is created under a company, the user will inherit the time zone of the company if not explicitly set on the user account.
Regarding DTC, the jvm should automatically take care of it and you donu2019t need to do anything special.
Hope this helps.
Regards,
Vikram

System Time - TimeZones

Hi
I have some problem with sys time in JRE:
On server in Romania (Win 2000 Eng, TimeZone Bucharest GMT+2)
The local time that I see near tray is properly !
But All Java applications have logs with time put forward by one hour ! Lets say that now is 12 o'clock but in application we see 13 o'clock.
I wrote some simple application that displays local time and set TimeZone for sure, it compares Romanian time with Polish:
          GregorianCalendar gCalendar = new GregorianCalendar(TimeZone.getTimeZone("Europe/Bucharest"));
          SimpleDateFormat sdf = new SimpleDateFormat("MM-dd-yyyy HH:mm:ss");
          System.out.println("In Romania:(Europe/Bucharest) ");
          sdf.setTimeZone(TimeZone.getTimeZone("Europe/Bucharest"));
          System.out.println(sdf.format(gCalendar.getTime()));
          String [] timezones =      TimeZone.getAvailableIDs();
          for (int i =0 ; i < timezones.length ; i++)
               System.out.println(timezones);
          System.out.println("\nIn Poland:(Europe/Sarajevo) ");
          sdf.setTimeZone(TimeZone.getTimeZone("Europe/Sarajevo"));
          System.out.println(sdf.format(gCalendar.getTime()));
          System.out.println("\nLocal Time zone: ");
          System.out.println("TimeZone: "+TimeZone.getDefault().getID());
          System.out.println(new SimpleDateFormat("MM-dd-yyyy HH:mm:ss").format(Calendar.getInstance().getTime()));
          TimeZone.setDefault(TimeZone.getTimeZone("Europe/Bucharest"));
          System.out.println("\n");
          System.out.println("Date using system.CurentTimemillis after setting default timezone");
          Date d = new Date(System.currentTimeMillis());
          System.out.println(new SimpleDateFormat("MM-dd-yyyy HH:mm:ss").format(d));
After call this main on local computer (Poland) i get good Time:
In Romania:(Europe/Bucharest)
10-06-2006 12:01:54
In Poland:(Europe/Sarajevo)
10-06-2006 11:01:54
Local Time zone:
TimeZone: Europe/Belgrade
10-06-2006 11:01:54
Date using system.CurentTimemillis after setting default timezone
10-06-2006 12:01:54
After I call this main on Romanian server i get time that is put forward by one hour !:
In Romania:(Europe/Bucharest)
10-06-2006 13:00:25
In Poland:(Europe/Sarajevo)
10-06-2006 12:00:25
Local Time zone:
TimeZone: Europe/Bucharest
10-06-2006 13:00:25
Date using system.CurentTimemillis after setting default timezone
10-06-2006 13:00:25
I repeat, time zone and time on Romanian server is set properly.
It looks like JRE see all Time zones are put forward by 1 hour :/
Please help.

Hi the problem was in bad configuration of the system, somebody changed settings of timeZone and set
Automatic adjust clock for daylight saving changes. to TRUE !!
That was the key.

Unity Connection - Users with system default password getting locked out

Hi all, hope everyone is well !!
I am experiencing a strange problem and hope someone can give me some direction on where to start digging on this issue.
I am getting a good number of users reporting they are getting locked out of their voice mail and they all claim that they have not changed their password and some user even got their greeting recorded by someone else. One thing in common for the users who reported the issue is that they all using the system default password. I am trying to trace to find out who/what has access to these users' mailbox but so far I have not had any luck.
Thanks in advance !!
Danny

Thanks, yes am doing that now and cant really find any new/unique pattern. Plus the trace is pretty hard to follow. Cant really figure out any times stamps in the trace also. The current trace file is defaultTrace.18.trc and it has very simiiar content as some of the older ones before the problem. Right now the ESS portal is working and the slddsuser password is not locked. It seems the problem takes place on start up?
/usr/sap/ESS/JC77/j2ee/cluster/server0/log
Tough thing to test in production.
I wonder what takes place at startup that would kick this problem off?

Sending email using system default mail client

I'm working on a project right now, and I have no desire to develop a new mailing system. What would be very convienient for me is to have a call, opening the systems default mail client. Preferrably with some of the fields, like "to" and "Subject" being specifed by me.
I'm not really aware of how the JavaMail system works, but it seems to me like a backend API, able to transmit the mail, but not much else.
Could anyone give some hints on how to open the system default mailer?

I found this example here. Seems pretty good - just what I was looking for too!
from https://jdic.dev.java.net/documentation/Examples.html
Case# 6: Launch the system default mailer and send the constructed message with UI or without UI.
import java.util.List;
import java.util.ArrayList;
import org.jdesktop.jdic.desktop.Desktop;
import org.jdesktop.jdic.desktop.DesktopException;
import org.jdesktop.jdic.desktop.Message;
public class MailTest {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        Message msg = new Message();
        List toList = new ArrayList();
        toList.add("[email protected]");
        msg.setToList(toList);
        List ccList = new ArrayList();
        ccList.add("[email protected]");
        ccList.add("[email protected]");
        msg.setCcList(ccList);
        msg.setSubject("Hello");
        msg.setBody("Test");
        List attachList = new ArrayList();
        attachList.add("C:\\test\\test.txt");
        msg.setAttachmentList(attachList);
        try {
            // Send mail in UI mode.
            Desktop.mail(msg);
        } catch (DesktopException e) {
            e.printStackTrace();
}

Firefox 18 seems to be defaulting to Adobe PDF for printing even though the print.print_printer is set to the system default. Any ideas why and how to fix?

On Windows 7 64 bit machines, we are seeing users that have Adobe Acrobat Pro installed where Firefox 18 is using the Adobe PDF as the default printer even though the print.print_printer is set to the correct system default printer.

Font Bug in Flash...fonts reverting to system default

Maybe I am doing something stupid...you never know.
I typically use a shared lib to embed, then link fonts. I
have SEVERAL flash files that have suddenly started to do this.
Fonts that ARE embedded and ARE linked to shared lib swf...suddenly
stop working and I get a font in parenthesis (which I named and
embedded) with 'System Default" Even when I re-embed and TRY to
re-select the new font, it keeps reverting the the bad system
default.
If I open a NEW text box it will let me use the RE-embeded
font. If I try to change the font that won't release it self from
the "system default" version...it will let me...
But all the fonts that are in the file already have suddenly
changed themselves. I was cutting and pasting buttons into other
files using the same linkages, and everytime I pasted the button
into a new file, the font automatically changed itself the the
system default.
I tried everything I know. I turned on the preferences to
warn me if a font is missing...and cutting and pasting these
buttons into a new file (that somehow won't recognize the correct
font)...THE WARNING is not triggered...though the font will turn
into a system font...
I am at a loss..and there is NO WAY to repair this in my
files without re-creating them all over again fonts., which is
quite impossible.

I know this is an old post, but I have a big problem like this.
I have my web page built in CS3, I used Anna font in static text. I used this font well, no problems. Now I am with CS4, and Flash can read the font well... inside Flash (editor, not player), it shows it in italics (this fonts doesn't have italics), and there is no way to use in regular. If I turn to another font and then, turn back to Anna, neither. And sometimes, automatically turn to Times or another. BUT... sometimes (I don't know how), Flash reads the font. But the static text that doesn't work will never work. And the other yes... AND I CAN MIX BOTH TEXTS IN THE SAME MOVIE! They have exactly the same attributes, but one is working and the other isn't. You can see it in this capture (note that Anna only has Regular Style)
You can see the page working in http://www.mariomey.com.ar and the now exported with CS4 in http://www.mariomey.com.ar/main2.swf (look all the fonts, it looks the same in Flash editor).
Anybody...?

How to find the system default scripts and prompts in UCCX 8.0

Hello everyone,
I have a bit of experience in UCCX 6.0 and just began to use UCCX 8.0. There's a question that where can I find the system default scripts and prompts in 8.0? In 6.0, I can find them in installing directory, but 8.0 is linux based so I can not do that in same way.
Thanks.

You can Login to CLI with either root access or remote user access and get default scripts by going to
CD /opt/cisco/uccx/Scripts/system/default
At this point you have to connect to ftp server and move these default script to yoru FTP server.
I hope this helps

System Default Fonts and Icons

How can I change the font for pcmanfm, firefox, and other programs, pretty much the system default font? Also, does anyone know what font this is: http://supersonicdarky.deviantart.com/a … loggedin=1
Also how can I change the icon theme in pcmanfm?
Thanks

~ % cat .gtkrc
gtk-font-name = "Bitstream Vera Sans 10"
gtk-icon-theme-name = "Tango"
Use
ls -l /usr/share/icons
to find what icons you want to use.
Looks a bit like "Snap" to me.

Can Firefox be set to use the system default printer?

I would really like it of Firefox would use the system default printer set in the control panel, similar to the way office programs do. Is there no setting in about:config to do this? Or an add-on perhaps?

I really, really wish Firefox would change this, but I did find one thing.
In about:config I set:
print.print_printer to null
print.save_print_settings to false
Now it seems to use the system default. And it doesn't remember any changes with in a session, or from one session to the next. It always uses the system default printer.
I realize different people have different preferences. But on my system the default printer changes automatically depending on what wireless network I'm on at the moment. I wanted Firefox to reflect that.

System default email client (Thunderbird) does not appear in mailto applications.

I should like to use Thunderbird as the mailto application in Firefox. The only options listed for mailto are GMail, Yahoo mail, always ask, and choose application; use default does not appear.

I've solved this. Clicking "use other" in mailto applications, "cancel" when a window opens to select application, then clicking an application other than mailto, and the system default mail client is selected. Seems a bit user unfriendly. I'm running Firefox 24 under Ubuntu 13.04 BTW.

Use system default sound devices in Skype

Hi,
Basically, I would like Skype to automatically select whatever device is set as default here in the Playback options:
so that I don't have to manually change it in the Skype options each time I switch from headphones to speaker and vice versa, which I do a lot.
And the "Automatically adjust speaker settings" option doesn't seem to help.
Is there a way to do that on the latest version on Winodows 8.1?
Thanks in advance.

Microsoft removed the system default device from the options list.
This may help: http://alvarorojas.github.io/SkypeAudio/

Hi pankaj2008_singh,
the chances that you get an answer for your question in this forum are very little.
Please post your SAPscript questions in forum ABAP Development -> Form Printing.
In spite of the name, SAPscript is not a scripting language.

Why dose Premier (CS6) Crash when I change the Audio Hardware to System Default?

I am running a brand new Imac, i7 3.4ghz, 32gb ram and updated. Full Adobe Production suite installed and updated. My Audio interface is the Akai EIE Pro with the latest 2.8.18 drivers installed.
If a launch Audition, After effects, Logic, they all see the audio interface and work seemlessly. When I launch Premier it does not see the EIE Pro interface and when I change the Default Audio interface to System Default Input/output Premier crashes immediately. I have tried an earlier version of the EIE Pro drivers with the same results. It doesn't make sense to me that it would work fine in After Effects but not Premier.
Here is the following crash report.    Anybody else have this issue or have any ideas on what to do?
Cheers!!

Steve, the partial crash log is an unofficial unwritten rule around here. The cause of the crash is usually near the top of the log anyway. The hardware profile is at the bottom. That can be helpful some times.
But, most of the contents only make sense to software engineers.
Search for the .plist without ".plist" in the search criteria.
Or, look in /System/Library/LaunchDaemons
Best of luck,
Jim
Look, I just edited my post after you replied to it, John.
