Description

As the areas in question are only providing the Date (not the Time), I was only able to notice when my local time was a day off from UTC.

It is honored for:
  • activity
  • repository (git)
  • files
It is not honored for:
  • issues/XX (issue detail)
  • issues/calendar
  • roadmap

In lib/i18n.rb, format_date is not using User.current.time_zone like format_time does.

I suggest the following patch but it is not fully tested and is delivered AS IS.

    def format_date(date)
      return nil unless date
      time = date.to_time
      zone = User.current.time_zone
      local = zone ? time.in_time_zone(zone) : (time.utc? ? time.localtime : time)     
      Setting.date_format.blank? ? ::I18n.l(local.to_date) : local.to_date.strftime(Setting.date_format)
    end

Hi Alain,

I modified i18n.rb as you specified here and in #5378, now the patch looks like as my attachment. However, it doesn't work. I am not a ruby developer, maybe I did something wrong, thanks for any suggestion.

We have a server, running Debian Squeeze + redmine trunk + git. Timezone of this server and our desktops are all UTC+8. Everytime, we (git) push a file to server, and check immediately, redmine says the file is modified 8 hours ago.

Are you talking about the zone settings in the redmine profil settings ?

Everywhere. Include: system timezone setting of our server, system timezone setting of all our desktops, and the timezone setting in redmine profile. They are all UTC+8.

However, if I (git) push a file from my desktop to our server, and check redmine's repository immediately, redmine says this file is modified 8 hours ago.

Any news on this? Is this still true?

I've seen some changes in some methods which correct the timezone support, but I'm not sure if they are consistently corrected in every model/controller.
