Timezone set

[KeJyLL]

First of all, thanks for your great work!

I just tried to update my container with the new enviroment options "APP_TIMEZONE", but it seems doesn't working.

davis:
    image: ghcr.io/tchapi/davis:v4.4.1
    container_name: davis
    environment:
      - APP_ENV=prod
      - DATABASE_DRIVER=sqlite
      - DATABASE_URL=sqlite:////data/davis-database.db # ⚠️ 4 slashes for an absolute path ⚠️ + no quotes (so Symfony can resolve it)
      - MAILER_DSN=smtp://${MAIL_USERNAME}:${MAIL_PASSWORD}@${MAIL_HOST}:${MAIL_PORT}
      - ADMIN_LOGIN=${ADMIN_LOGIN}
      - ADMIN_PASSWORD=${ADMIN_PASSWORD}
      - AUTH_REALM=${AUTH_REALM}
      - AUTH_METHOD=${AUTH_METHOD}
      - CALDAV_ENABLED=${CALDAV_ENABLED}
      - CARDDAV_ENABLED=${CARDDAV_ENABLED}
      - WEBDAV_ENABLED=${WEBDAV_ENABLED}
      - WEBDAV_TMP_DIR=${WEBDAV_TMP_DIR}
      - WEBDAV_PUBLIC_DIR=${WEBDAV_PUBLIC_DIR}
      - INVITE_FROM_ADDRESS=${INVITE_FROM_ADDRESS}
#      - WEBDAV_PUBLIC_DIR=/webdav
      - APP_TIMEZONE="Europe/Berlin"
    volumes:
      - davis_www:/var/www/davis
      - davis_data:/data
    restart: always

I also tried the other way with the .env (I haven't forget to set back the enviroment from earlier to
- APP_TIMEZONE=${TIMEZONE}
Furthermore I tried to cause an error with this line:
TIMEZONE=Europasde/Paris

On the webGUI, I get everytime this:

I also checked the following file (it's empty):
/usr/local/etc/php/conf.d/timezone.ini

Hi @KeJyLL

Thanks for the kind words.

You can see my actual, production implementation here so I think setting it should work (minus the quotes, but that's a detail)

Your container is not running v4.4.1 in fact: The "Server timezone" label has been renamed to "App timezone" (see here) so I suspect that your container did not correctly update.

This can happen if you share the volume with another container (which is you case here, with a reverse-proxy I assume). In this case, when recreating the container, the volume files remain and take precedence. I would advise to read this specific paragraph and do what is indicated to correctly update your container (note: I may add this in the README of Davis at some point)

I also checked the following file (it's empty): /usr/local/etc/php/conf.d/timezone.ini

That's expected: setting an ini variable in the PHP runtime does not change the disk-based configuration

[KeJyLL]

You're right!

I was missing the two lines above, there I've seen the Davis version.
Your update lines were working like a charme.
I think I had to this once or should I do this everytime I update the Container?

Anyway, thank you so much.

[Cyril Chapellier]

It's every time you update (AFAIK)

[KeJyLL]

Sorry for the late Answer.
I was just thinking about and maybe found a workaround.
Could a separate mount for timezone.ini be a solution?

Hi @KeJyLL

I wouldn't push for it as it's not really maintainable but you can do it on your container if you wish, yes

[KeJyLL]

That's true. If something happens wrong, this becomes something special.
I'll take a look, what's else practicable to keep updating as simple as possible.
Thanks for quick reply.
