Sage clock problem

[olorijn]

I've just noticed this morning that Sage thinks it's last night.
It's 8:37am in the morning here, yet Sage is insisting that 9:37pm. The weird thing is that the TV listings show programs that would be on at the current time.

The WinXP clock was wrong, but I resyncd it from the net, and rebooted, and still Sage thinks its last night.

The 'Sync System Clock with Sage Server' option is turned off.

How can I get Sage to adjust its clock back to the correct time?

SageTV should be getting its time & time zone from Windows -- its time & zone are both set properly?

I'm not sure this would affect it, but is the time_zone property set in sage.properties (or sageclient.properties if a client or using service mode)? If it is, try clearing it when SageTV isn't running & restarting.

Yes, the time is set correctly, and the time zone is set to 'AUS Eastern Standard Time'. The time_zone property is blank in the sage.properties file.

However, XP recently installed a hotfix, http://support.microsoft.com/kb/912475/ because we've got slightly different daylight savings times this year because of the commonwealth games.

I've rebooted XP numerous times since, and restarted sage numerous times, but it still thinks its about 13 hours behind.

I managed to fix this problem, in case its affecting any other Australian's.
I had to remove all versions of Java (1.4, 1.5_04 and 1.5_06) reboot a couple of times for good luck, and then re-install a complete 1.5_06 JRE. The clock went back to normal in Sage after that.

So I guess it was a bug in Java, not Sage
