[App_rpt-users] Time Zone issue

[Bote Man]

What's the TZ setting for whatever user account that runs Allstar? Root
can have one setting and other accounts can have other settings.

Lu – you did not say what version you are running

 

Here,  version 281 works fine

 

You say east coast time, but it’s actually New_York

 

cd /etc

cp localtime localtime.orig

ln -sf /usr/share/zoneinfo/America/New_York localtime

I think there MIGHT be a bug with regards to the time zone setting for
the East Coast.

All of my nodes read the correct time when I type date from root, but
Asterisk is reporting  4 hours behind.

Example:

Aug 21 06:40:36] NOTICE[2818]: chan_echolink.c:2484 do_el_directory:
Directory pgm done downloading(partial,compressed), 342 records

KA4EPS*CLI> exit

[root at KA4EPS ~]# date

Sun Aug 21 10:40:52 America/NewYork 2011

[root at KA4EPS ~]#

I think I once changed it to Central Time zone and it then became 1 hour
behind as expected if I recall correctly.

Not sure what to change here if someone could offer guidance.

I looked at system.conf and it shows TimeZone=-5.0 which would be
correct.

Or am I supposed to set the system clock to GMT perhaps?

Thanks
