Timezone incorrect in java 1.4

In java 1.4 JVM does not use the local time zone from operation system.
I tried to change the registry key: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/SYSTEM/CurrentControlSet/TimeZoneInformation
But it was not helped.
I cannot use java 1.6 or use -duser.timezone parameter.
since this problem ocurrs in a lot of differant sites.
Need help.
Thanks

since this problem ocurrs in a lot of differant sites.But apparently the "different sites" issue means that any solution you come up with must not involve doing something at each one of those sites. Is that a correct statement of your requirements? Because if it is, I can't imagine what kind of solution would be acceptable to you.
Let's say, for example, that you found out how to run the patch program which was used to update the timezone table so that you didn't have to install new versions of Java 1.4 every time the timezones table. And let's say that solved your problem. You would still have to go to every site and do that. And, apparently, you don't want to go to every site and do any modifications. So, given that magic doesn't exist, I think you're out of luck unless you revise your expectations.

How to link OS timezone name with java zi

Hi all,
I need to add some timezone definition in some (HP-UX) server to define DST rules for Iraq.
The zone information already exists in java with "Asia/Baghdad" timezone name.
How does java link the OS timezone found in tztab (e.g. MET-1METDST) with its ZoneInfo id file (e.g. "Europe/Paris")
This is what I'm looking for to link my tztab with zi files.
thanks

Timezone Mapping Solaris - Java

i have the following problem, for which i'm looking for
ideas/suggestions/comments.
i'm writing a Java client app which runs on Solaris or NT. the
server to the client also can run either on Solaris or NT and the
whole thing of course in a mixed mode (Client = Solaris,Server =
NT, and viceversa).
one of the parameters i get is the current time and timezone of
the server. my client app is supposed to work with these, ie when
showing date and time info, it is supposed to be based on the
server date and time(zone).
i know how to use Date/Calendar/TimeZone et al but i can't figure
how to map the timezone info i get from Solaris and NT into the
Java timezone.
has anybody out there done this/experience/knows somebody who
does/where to look at/...
any info appreciated,
thomas

Hi
I have not tried it, but you may try the getDefault() of the getTimeZone()
methods in Java to get the TimeZone object. I dont think you need to
worry about the underlying Operating system.
Let me know if it helps.

PI Timestamp incorrect in java stack

Dear All,
In the java stack-> runtime workbench (Communication Channel Monitoring) the logs time stamp shows 1 hour back..
Whereas the same message log timestamp when checked in the abap stack shows the correct time.
All the default java logs which are shown in NWA(Monitoring -> Logs and traces) are also having a correct time stamp.
Below is the enviorment.
OS: Win 2003 x64
SAP PI 7.0 64 bit (SP12)
MSSQL 2005 64bit (build 9.0.3228)
JDK 1.4.2_17-x64
Please help asap.
Thanks in advance.

Hi
We have faced similar problem. We have applied note 919538 and resolved the same problem. We did following steps
1. Download the TZ_2008_V06.zip attachment locally
2. Execute program TZCUSTIM in SE30
3. Enter the path of the .dat file from the SAP note. This process should be done in every client.
4. Verify the new entry for the USA DST rule in transaction SPRO for Time Zones
5. A system restart is must
I am not sure if there is any other problem with the timestamps.
Thanks

Bug In Java 5 Date/Calendar Timezone Implementation (possibly 6 also)

Hey All,
Really been scratching my head over a date issue I've observed for a while now in relation to TimeZone handling in java.
It first manifested itself as strange behaviour in my Default TimeZone "Europe/Dublin" (ie. GMT with DST)
e.g:
System.setProperty("user.timezone", "Europe/Dublin");
Date epoch=new Date(0);
System.out.println("Epoch:"+epoch);
yields:
Epoch:Thu Jan 01 01:00:00 GMT 1970
1AM (BUG???????)
If I set the TZone above to GMT it outputs correctly as
Epoch:Thu Jan 01 00:00:00 GMT 1970
As there is no offset from GMT I can only think that DST is being handled incorrectly around the epoch. (even though it is not in DST on Jan 1st)
So I wrote the following test using calendars to test my theory.
          System.setProperty("user.timezone", "UTC");
          Calendar test=Calendar.getInstance(); //will use the user.timezone
          Calendar test2=Calendar.getInstance(TimeZone.getTimeZone("Europe/Dublin"));
          for (int year=1965;(year<=1975);year++){
               test.clear();test2.clear();
               test.set(year, 0, 1, 0, 0, 0);
               test2.set(year, 0, 1, 0, 0, 0);
               System.out.println("UTC:"+ test.getTime()+ " --- EU/Dub:"+test2.getTime());
Which yields the following interestingly inconsistent output (BUG?????)
UTC:Fri Jan 01 00:00:00 UTC 1965 --- EU/Dub:Fri Jan 01 00:00:00 UTC 1965
UTC:Sat Jan 01 00:00:00 UTC 1966 --- EU/Dub:Sat Jan 01 00:00:00 UTC 1966
UTC:Sun Jan 01 00:00:00 UTC 1967 --- EU/Dub:Sun Jan 01 00:00:00 UTC 1967
UTC:Mon Jan 01 00:00:00 UTC 1968 --- EU/Dub:Mon Jan 01 00:00:00 UTC 1968
UTC:Wed Jan 01 00:00:00 UTC 1969 --- EU/Dub:Tue Dec 31 23:00:00 UTC 1968
UTC:Thu Jan 01 00:00:00 UTC 1970 --- EU/Dub:Wed Dec 31 23:00:00 UTC 1969
UTC:Fri Jan 01 00:00:00 UTC 1971 --- EU/Dub:Thu Dec 31 23:00:00 UTC 1970
UTC:Sat Jan 01 00:00:00 UTC 1972 --- EU/Dub:Sat Jan 01 00:00:00 UTC 1972
UTC:Mon Jan 01 00:00:00 UTC 1973 --- EU/Dub:Mon Jan 01 00:00:00 UTC 1973
UTC:Tue Jan 01 00:00:00 UTC 1974 --- EU/Dub:Tue Jan 01 00:00:00 UTC 1974
UTC:Wed Jan 01 00:00:00 UTC 1975 --- EU/Dub:Wed Jan 01 00:00:00 UTC 1975
Strange - ehh? 1969->1971 all have issues with the Jan 1st date!!!!
In fact theres issues for every day that DST is not in operation on these years... (BUG????)
I'm part of a project that will be handling data from all Timezones and as such we have chosen
to use UTC as our server time. We are now quite concerned what other bugs/strange behaviours
lurk beneath the surface of the java implementation.
Note we have tested various JDK's and they seem to be consistently inconsistent!
If anyone can confrim this bug/issue or shed any light it would be most appreciated,
G.

Change timezone in Java-only system

Does anyone know how to change the timezone on a Java-only system?
I have already added the setting "-Duser.timezone=America/Dallas" on the configtool, but when I look at the logs in NWA, it still looks like it is reporting on GMT timezone.
Thanks!

Changing Java Stack TimeZone

Hello Basis,
We are running NWCE 7.11 on AIX/DB2 platform. I'm looking to change the Java stack time zone on our CE portal. It's currently set to CET but I would like to change it to PST.
I've checked out OS date and it's correct. It's in PST.
I know of transaction STZAD on the BW server. How do you set the timezone for the Java stack CE server?
There's mentioning of -Duser.timezone = on the forum but I'm still not clear as to where I should add this parameter using the configuration tool?
Would appreciate any guidance... Thanks for your response in advance.

Hi,
SAP EP doesn't have its own timezone considering it can be accessed from multiple geographical regions and timezones.
It uses the timezone of the host machine where it is installed.
By setting Duser.timezone parameter you can change the user timezone. The following thread might be helpful.
http://forums.sdn.sap.com/thread.jspa?threadID=806527
You should also check if the portal is connecting to an ABAP system and therefore displays a different timezone.

DST is not picked up by Java 5 on Solaris (1.4.2 and 5 on Windows are fine)

Solaris 9:
Java 5 ignores daylight savings time and displays time incorrectly. Java 1.4.2 installed on the same Solaris machine displays time zone and time correctly (taking into account DST). Does anybody know what should be tweaked so JRE 1.5 gets DST settings from OS?
Thank you,
Dima.

Well, they wouldn't rewrite their 1.4 documents at all actually.
This is just Sun improving their product's documentation. Defining a serialVersionUID has always been a good idea, as all versions of the Serialization Specification show.

Change a timestamp in one timezone to another with the DayLight Saving

Hi Guys!
I need to change a timestamp in one timezone to another timezone with the Daylight saving time(DST).
I can easily convert a given timestamp to a different location timezone by the use of TimeZone class in java, but found myself unable to modify it relative to the
Daylight saving time(DST).
I Just want to know that the companies, that are having the International clients then, how they handle these kind of things where they need to track down the user
activity in that client(End-User) side timezone, with that Daylight Saving Time.
I am very new to this Daylight saving time concept so if anybody knows about it anything, then plz help me out.

I can easily convert a given timestamp to a different location timezone by the use of TimeZone class in java, but found myself unable to modify it relative to the
Daylight saving time(DST).No you don't. All Java timestamps are stored as a "epoch time" i.e. number of millisecondsseconds since 1/1/1970 GMT.
Conversion to and from local dates and times is done when converting between stored Date objects and String values from input or for display.
This happens in DateFormat or Calendar, and DST information is included in the Locale information passed to either class.

if I do this in comand line it works. somehow my eclipse setting is not set to the oracle JVM setting of 1.5 ..

Setting TimeZone to GMT -12.00

Hi,
I set the TimeZone on my system to GMT -12.00 and the Date/Time is Dec 14 7:53 AM.
When i try to get the Date in my java application using
= new java.util.Date()
or
=Calendar.getInstance().getTime()
Date/Time it shows is Dec 15 7:53 AM. It has added a Day to the actual date on my system. Is this way java does it or is there any other way to get the exact date/time.
Thanks,
Veera

I feel Calendar.getTime() has bug but Sun claims it's a feature.
Use something like this:
    SimpleDateFormat sdt
     = new SimpleDateFormat("yyyy.MM.dd G 'at' HH:mm:ss z", Locale.US);
    sdt.setTimeZone(TimeZone.getTimeZone("US/Central"));
    String now = sdt.format(new Date());
    System.out.println(now);Sun has something to say ...
>
Date.toString() uses the default time zone (i.e., TimeZone.getDefault() value) to format the date. Change its default time zone or use SimpleDateFormat and its setTimeZone() to specify the time zone to be used for formatting.

Calendar.getTime() returns a Date instance which supports only the default TimeZone. Please use DateFormat to specify a TimeZone for displaying a date/time value with the (non-default) TimeZone. (See java.text.DateFormat.setTimeZone documentation)
