Defect #1049
closedRedmine doesn't account for summer time (daylight saving time)
0%
Description
When we switched to summer time at end of march I had to switch the time zone of my Redmine account from UTC+1 (Berlin) to UTC+2 (Helsinki) to see the correct times.
It would be nice if this wasn't necessary.
Particularly having to choose Helsinki or any other of the UTC+2 cities is not intuitive.

Do you have the tzinfo gem installed? I was having the same problem and installing tzinfo fixed it for me.

Thanks for the hint!
The tzinfo gem didn't help on its own. I also had to run 'script/plugin install tzinfo_timezone' to make it work.
Jean-Philippe, are you planning to add this gem and plugin to www.redmine.org?

I'm still seeing the time 20:50 on www.redmine.org although it's already 21:50.
Can someone confirm this?

I am having the same issue on my redmine r1524 install
It is now:
Thu Jun 12 10:40:25 CEST 2008
If I change a Ticket it is shown to be changed at 9:40:25.
I tried installing the tzinfo_timezone via:
SERVER:/home/redmine # ruby script/plugin install tzinfo_timezone + ./tzinfo_timezone/README + ./tzinfo_timezone/Rakefile + ./tzinfo_timezone/init.rb + ./tzinfo_timezone/lib/tzinfo_timezone.rb + ./tzinfo_timezone/test/tzinfo_timezone_test.rb
But after that redmine did not start anymore:
** Daemonized, any open files are closed.

As Reavis mentioned you will also have to install the tzinfo
gem.

Anyone an idea?

Okay, I fixed it.
Downloaded tzinfo.zip and copied it to vendor/plugins
Now it runns smooth...

I rather thought of
gem install tzinfo

- Status changed from New to Resolved
Actually this issue is a duplicate of #855.
Nevertheless the tzinfo_timezone plugin should be added to www.redmine.org as well.

- Status changed from Resolved to Closed
- Resolution set to Fixed
This is obviously resolved on redmine.org and elsewhere.
