Time & Date again

Hi,

I've just turned my clock back on after about a week without power and the date and time are wrong. Weather says 17 September and the big clock says 17:12 (in my time zone it is 20:17).

I guess somewhere there is an automatic update missing after being turned off for a while.

Same here. I am on CET/CEST (G MT+1 / GMT+2 respectively), but 'onion time sync' gives me GMT time instead since the September 28 update. On the big clock as well as via the 'date' command. British Standard Time, on the other hand, syncs ok (GMT+1 atm, because of daylight saving).

Thus, there seems to be something broken with the timezone handling.

Edit: Both date and the big clock work correctly now with system timezone 'Europe/Berlin CET-1CEST,M3.5.0,M10.5.0/3' and '/etc/config.json' with the following content:

[...]

"config": {
"hourMode": 24,
"dayNightLed": true,
"location": "Reutlingen, BW, DE",
"brightnessTime": 1,
"brightnessInfo": 7,
"tz": "CET",
"timezone": "CET-1CEST,M3.5.0,M10.5.0/3",
"autoTimeZone": false

[...]

Nice location, I'm occasionally in Betzingen.

 

Sadly that didn't work for me. I've had my clock turned off again for a couple of days. did a firmware update just in case, tried an "sh /usr/bin/configUpdate.sh" even tried changing my timezone string to yours, tried reboots. But all that was needed in the end was a manual "onion time sync"
