Hello,
We are running a notes client on a windows client. When we open the calendar view the entries are not display with the right time with the eclipse client. If we open the same view with the basic client everything’s fine. I found that there is a wrong time setting in the JVM but I don’t know how to set it right ?
Best regards.
Subject: What have you found in the JRE?
Hi Pierre,
You stated that you have found an issue with the JVM? What is the issue?
Could you also run the ISA Collector and let us know what it is showing for the time settings?
Thanks,
Moe
To Collect the Data
From the main menu of the Notes Standard Client… select Help->Support->IBM Support Assistant
From the resulting dialog:
Select the “Collect Data” tab
Then select the “Select Collectors” tab
In the “Select a product (or System Collector) and it’s problem:” area of the dialog:
Expand the entry for “Lotus Notes 8.5”
Select the entry for “Notes General Problem Data Collection”
Press the Add button in the middle of the dialog.
Lotus Notes 8.5 should now show up in the right side of the dialog, under the heading Collector Queue
Press the “Collect All” button
In the next dialog, type in some text describing why you are collecting the data, then press OK
In the next dialog, choose to NOT send the data to IBM
In the next dialog, choose to also collect the .metadata directory
When Collection Status is “Completed”, make a note of the file name listed in under “Collected Result”
There should now be a “zip” file, with the same file name as shown in the previous dialog. It should be located in the following folder:
\workspace\autopd
To analyze the data (and see what the JRE timezone is set to).
Unzip the collector zip file that was created when the data was collected.
You want to look at a file called “systemsummary.txt”
In that file…look for text that starts with “Current TZ”
There should be two entries… one for ICU… and another for the actual JRE.
================ICU4J Info=================
ICU4J TZ Data Version is 2009j
XPD ICU4J Data Update Patch version is 3.8.1.v20090707_2009j
Current TZ is: America/New_York, offset: -4, In DST=true, Time in this Timezone 14:54:29
================JRE TZ Info=================

Hello Moe,
I’ve done the data collection. Here the result :
================ICU4J Info=================
ICU4J TZ Data Version is 2009r
XPD ICU4J Data Update Patch version is 3.8.1.v20091111_2009r
Current TZ is: Asia/Karachi, offset: 6, In DST=true, Time in this Timezone 14:43:56
================JRE TZ Info=================
Java TimeZone Data Version is tzdata2009f
Current TZ is Asia/Karachi, offset=5, In DST=false, Time in this Timezone=2010-05-17 13:43:56
It is strange because the OS time zone should be GMT+1 (Amsterdam, Berlin, Berne, Rome, Stockhom, Vienne). The client is running on a Windows XP.
Thank you for your help.
Subject: Any solution for this?
I have a user with exactly the same problem.
Update:
Seems to be a an official statement from IBM here: LO73960: TIME OFF IN CALENDAR BY 5 HOURS
http://www-01.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=swg1LO73960
Sadly there does not seem to be a fix for this as nothing is mentioned.
