[Geoserver-users] time value of output shape file from geoserver

When I output a shapeFile using the Geoserver web portal "Layer Preview"
capability I see that I can output my WFS data as shapeFile. My original
data in my postgres database has a time-stamp for each record in my table.
This time-stamp looks like this: 2015-08-25T05:13:22.079+00. When I look at
the .df file in the output shapeFile collection, it looks like the "Day"
value of the time-stamp was output, but the "Time" value of the time-stamp
was dropped.

Is there a way to have the output of the shape file preserve the Day and
Time ?

Ciao,
shapefile by default does not support datetime but only date. This is
oart of the shapefile standard if I remember correctly.

You can have geoserver write datetime by using the java option when
you start it, but from that point and on most software will not be
able to read those shapefiles.

-Dorg.geotools.shapefile.datetime=true

check also the info in this page
http://docs.geoserver.org/stable/en/user/tutorials/imagemosaic_timeseries/imagemosaic_timeseries.html
about timestamp support.

I have applications that do support date/time in a shapefile so I would need
that form of the data.

I did try

-Dorg.geotools.shapefile.datetime=true

on startup and when I output a shapefile now, I get this in my time field:

§~%

I'm running with geoserver 2.8.2
