GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 307468
Timezone in appointment is dfferent then system timezone
Last modified: 2006-07-27 11:05:54 UTC
Accepted an appointment i my 'Personla' calendar. The appointment is from 8AM to AM(IST). It is displayed properly from 8 to 9 in 'Day view'. But when i open the appointment it shows time 3PM to 4PM UST. Expected result is it should show the time in IST from 8 PM to 9PM. There is one more bug when time zone is changed from UST to Asia/Calcutta, the field displaying timezone disappears. When i close & open that appointment again that field will be displayed.
i've already seen some bug reports like this one here
I've also got this problem. I created an appointment in Korganizer, emailed it to myself, told Evolution to accept it, and it looks right on the day view. When I actually show the appointment, the start and end times are off by several hours. I'm including a screenshot. This is for a dinner appointment at 6:30pm on Feb 3rd, in the Vancouver, Canada timezone (PST, -0800). The event view shows 2:30am to 4:30am. I'm also including the event copied from the std.ics file: BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20060129T221413Z ORGANIZER;CN=PFudd:MAILTO:pfudd@pkts.ca ATTENDEE;CN=PFudd;RSVP=TRUE;PARTSTAT=NEEDS-ACTION; ROLE=REQ-PARTICIPANT:mailto:pfudd@pkts.ca CREATED:20060129T202048Z UID:KOrganizer-625370161.459 SEQUENCE:2 LAST-MODIFIED:20060129T221409Z DESCRIPTION:Nice restaurant SUMMARY:Dinner with Vineeta LOCATION:Nice restaurant CLASS:PUBLIC PRIORITY:5 DTSTART:20060204T023000Z DTEND:20060204T043000Z TRANSP:OPAQUE BEGIN:VALARM DESCRIPTION: ACTION:DISPLAY TRIGGER;VALUE=DURATION:-PT1H END:VALARM END:VEVENT And here is the event as I received it in email (from myself): BEGIN:VCALENDAR PRODID:-//K Desktop Environment//NONSGML KOrganizer 3.5//EN VERSION:2.0 METHOD:REQUEST BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20060129T221411Z ORGANIZER;CN=PFudd:MAILTO:pfudd@pkts.ca ATTENDEE;CN=PFudd;RSVP=TRUE;PARTSTAT=NEEDS-ACTION; ROLE=REQ-PARTICIPANT:mailto:pfudd@pkts.ca CREATED:20060129T202048Z UID:KOrganizer-625370161.459 SEQUENCE:2 LAST-MODIFIED:20060129T221409Z DESCRIPTION:Nice Restaurant SUMMARY:Dinner with Vineeta LOCATION:Nice Restaurant CLASS:PUBLIC PRIORITY:5 DTSTART:20060204T023000Z DTEND:20060204T043000Z TRANSP:OPAQUE BEGIN:VALARM DESCRIPTION: ACTION:DISPLAY TRIGGER;VALUE=DURATION:-PT1H END:VALARM END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
