Rules that use Clock triggers use CEST timezone rather than system timezone

[nbackous]

My system time is set in Settings as America/Los_Angeles (PT).

If I set a Rule to do an action at a specific time, it does not do it at the corresponding PT time, it does it at the CEST time.

Reproduction steps:

Set Timezone in Settings>Localization to: America/Los_Angeles (PT)
If it's 9:53am in PT and 6:53pm in CEST, create a rule that uses Clock to do an action at 9:54am

Expected result: in one minute, at 9:54am PT, the action happens.

Actual result: the action happens at 9:54am CEST

Workaround: set the action to happen at 6:54pm instead

That's odd. What version are you running? There was an issue with the timezone what was recently fixed.

I'll try doing a test as well.

I have 2.0.0 of the Candle Controller.

I have two significant Time related issues. The one described in this issue and another one.

Every time I reboot, my system time (as displayed when the Photo Frame is active) appears to be set to CEST. If I go to Settings>Localization it displays my Timezone as: America/Los_Angeles.

If I set it to a different time zone and then back to America/Los_Angeles, then Photo Frame will display the correct time for my timezone.

When did you create your controller? Recently or maybe a month ago? Do you know what release candidate you're on?

From your description it sounds like it's an older version.

I downloaded the image from https://www.candlesmarthome.com/download on July 19.

The file name was simply Candle_2.0.0.img

Pardon my ignorance, but I'm never quite sure when you say a fix is available if it's in one of the many addons such as DateTime Adapter, Power Settings, or in Candle itself.

If an update for Candle contains the fix, I'll have to check that out when an upgrade path is available.

OK, my recommendation is to wait a few days until the system update is available. It should fix your issues.

Has this issue been fixed for you?
