AEM Timezone issue

Hi All,

The Linux box gives EST as time zone but the user inbox on AEM WCM UI shows PDT as time zone. Could you throw some light on what I am missing here.

we didn't set -Duser.timezone, Please let me know if it is any OSGi configuration.

 

Thanks,

Chamu.

Hi Chamu,

  For server side you can use -Duser.timezone AFAIK touch ui is server side & should pick that.    For classic ui which uses extjs will always take the user system configured time zone. If your requirement is for classic ui & need server side time zone then have to implement validation. 

Thanks,

To force the server to use the required timezone in startup file: 

Use :-    -Duser.timezone=US/Central or -Duser.timezone=America/Los_Angeles etc.

Pleas have a look at this forum thread :- https://forums.adobe.com/thread/1061940

I hope this would help you.

This needs to be set in the AEM start up script.
