Time problem

[bbalegere]

I do not why this is happening,but my IntegraMOD shows the wrong time.It is abt 10 hours slow.
I downloaded the package from both Source forge and this site and installed it twice on 3 hosts.But still the time is slow.The normal version of PhpBB shows the correct time.I am facing this problem on all 3 hosts.

PLease help me

If any body is interested I will give FTP access to my Integramod Board.
PM me if anybody is interested in solving problem this directly using FTP.

Regards Bharat

you don't need FTP access to figure this out

[bbalegere]

The time is slow for all timezones.
Even GMT shows the wrong time.

You do have to set the time to be correct for the server the board is hosted on, then adjust your profile to be GMT.

And that may or may not fix it. I know it doesn't work for me.....at least on repeating events (birthdays). I hope someone can come up with a fix for this someday

[bbalegere]

How do I find out my server time.
I have CPanelX

[Southern Man]

I would ask your hosts

[Dragonsys]

Well, if the time is off by +/- 10 hours, and server time is set as GMT in the ACP. Then adjust it to GMT +/- 10 Hours

[bbalegere]

I want the time to be at GMT 5.5
There is no GMT 15.5 to set the correct time.
Your advice will work only if it is less than GMT 3.

[Dragonsys]

it's not a matter of what you want. It is a matter of what the server time is set at. If ACP shows GMT and the time is -10 hours, then set ACP to GMT -10. Then you set your profile to what ever you want, and the system will adjust the time display when you are logged in.

This will/may fix the times, but everything will still show up 1 day early on the calendar.

[bbalegere]

I agree with Eon.
The date will be one day behind.

[Dragonsys]

This works perfrctly fine on my site, but then my server is GMT-3 and I am GMT -6, so it's only a 3 hour difference.

The problem is, is the ACP is not set to the server's Timezone, then the time display will always be wrong.

If the calendar is not displaying according to your settings, then it is not taking Timezones into account, and is only running off server time, not user time. But then, if I have an event set for 8am on 5/13/06 (GMT -6), would you really want it to show as 8am 5/13/06 for GMT +6 as well? No, it should show as 12 hours sooner, meaning 8pm 5/12/06 when being viewed by someone in GMT +6.

So to me it makes sense that they show different. The Time the event is listed, should be set by the timezone of the user who entered the event, if this is not happening, then this is a problem with the calendar, and should be fixed there.

Am I making any sense? I hope this helps some... <img>

From what I have read, the calendar does not take timezones into affect. Which is limitations of the calendar. So it posts on the calendar as though it was 12:00 am on that date. But you will also notice that this only affects the Birthdays. Which shows limitations and problems with the birthday mod that is added to the calendar.

I have tried to track back some to find out where the birthday mod is and who made it, but I have had no success yet. I need that list of mods installed. I saw it once, but can't find it now.

[Dragonsys]

The Hacks List is a little outdated, unfortunatley, it comes that way with the install for IM. But it should be located here:

Ok, so it looks like it is a problem with the Birthday add-on for Calendar, or with the Calendar itself?

This is a separate problem then the original post here, but it is still a problem. I think I had the original code somewhere, let me do some digging on this...

[Eon]

Yeah if we can track this down in time maybe we can fix it for 141.

[bbalegere]

Yeah I hope that the time probelm is fixed in 141
