Different handling of database timefields on insert and update
--------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: GEOS-4486
                 URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/GEOS-4486
             Project: GeoServer
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: PostGIS, WFS
    Affects Versions: 2.0.2
         Environment: Debian Squeeze , Tomcat-6.0.28-10, Lighttpd-1.4.28-3, postgis-1.5.1-5, postgresql-8.4.5-0squeeze2
            Reporter: Karim Malhas
            Assignee: Andrea Aime
            Priority: Minor
         Attachments: timefield.log, timefieldtable.sql

Given a Postgresql database containing a field of type:

  time without time zone DEFAULT '00:00:00'::time without time zone

and JAVA_OPT to tomcat:

  -Duser.timezone=Europe/Berlin

System time is UTC and the system timezone is set to Europe/Berlin as well

When inserting a feature with a field of value '00:00:00' the system/java timezone setting seems to be taken into account, and results in a database field of '01:00:00'.
Updating the same Feature with a field value of '00:00:00' again, sets the database field to '00:00:00'

The expectation was that both times the database-field would be set to '00:00:00'.

Workaround:

Setting the JAVA_OPT to:

  -Duser.timezone=Europe/London

Does what I expected it to do.

Attached are a CREATE TABLE statement and logfiles showing the problem.
