[Geoserver-users] date time issues

Hi list,

I am inserting a new feature which has a datetime property. I insert it
with my timezone, for instance 25-06-2008T12:00:00+01:00.

But when I get the info back from Geoserver, it misses the timezone and it
is 3 hours off (15:00).

How can I change this behaviour? TIA.

Using 1.7 alpha on ArcSDE.

I found a bug report in JIRA but it says it should be fixed.
http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/GEOS-378

Best regards,
Bart

Generally speaking the date/time support in GeoServer, write wise, is
poor, most datastores are not up to the task of properly encoding
timestamp objects so that they can be written properly (jdbc datastores
have troubles too). I don't know about the specific case of
ArcSDE, but I suggest you open a jira issue about it.
