MagicMirror using the wrong time

@rcberg3 I’m having exactly the same issue. Also on Raspbian 10 and MM 2.25.0. I was able to set the timeZone in the clock module, but the calendar is still off. Has there been any further info on this? Is there another posting I should be looking at?

@blissb calendar uses the system timezone
set in the preferences, from the desktop -
@sdetweil Thanks for the quick reply - but what you are saying isn’t what I’m seeing… Please let me know what I’m missing. I’d be really grateful!
Time and timezone are set correctly on the two RPi systems. Time / date are showing correctly on the Raspbian desktop, and in the MM Clock module (after setting the timezone option). So, clearly, I’m missing something. Raspi-config has the correct timezone (America/New_York)
Clock module is correct after adding timeZone to config.js, but not the calendar or weather:
-
@blissb
Maybe your RPI is not synchronized with time server. RPI (not 5) has not RTC feature, so it should be synced it’s time sometimes. -
@blissb can you add ,“DEBUG”
to the log level in config.jsthen do
from on the terminal window docd ~/MagicMirror npm start > somefile.txtwait til the calendar is up, then Ctrl+q to stop mm
then examine the somefile.txt
search for ‘initial’

@sdetweil
I replied to this, but then received a notice that my submission was rejected. I don’t know why.The debug file has over 200 entries referencing “initial tz =” with both “America/New_York” and “America/Lima.” I do not know why Lima would be anywhere in my configs, but I believe it’s the same time as New York, so I’m not sure that’s instructive.
I will also add there seems to be an “initial tz=” entry each followed immediately by “corrected tz=” with the same value.
-
@blissb not the same all the time
could you pull a complete section…
thru “saving event”
or send the file to me same userid as here at Gmail. -
@blissb
Again, I’m not seeing the same thing you are… weird.

@sdetweil
I think this is what you were asking for?

And yet it is not according to everything I can see.

@blissb how about thru the preferences, in the menu, top left on the desktop
this is a pi, yes? -
@sdetweil
I know I haven’t said it, but I really appreciate you looking at this… it’s been driving me nuts since the last update messed things up.I just tested hard-coding the timezone in calendarfetcherutils.js – replaced “moment.tz.guess()” with “America/New_York” on line 29. That has removed the “Lima” entries in the debug log, but it has not corrected the time issue.
Yes, I’m running on a Pi. Here’s what’s in preferences:
-
@blissb what is the locale above the tz?
-
On my second MagicMirror I restored the backup of the last version of MM, and made no other changes. The debug info shows no instances of the “lima” timezone, and all times are correct.
I went back to the most recent version, reran with debug, and the “Lima” instance is back, as are the wrong times.
I’ll be reverting to the previous version of MM for the moment, but please let me know if there’s anything else I can do to help with troubleshooting this really annoying issue!

Locale is:

@blissb great info!!! thanks.
this sounds like a bad moment lib.
