Today I started testing Zope 2.9.6. After the upgrade I noticed that some calendar data generated from Oracle was wrong. After some investigation I found that Zope 2.9.6 seems to assign a timezone of GMT+0 when none is specified rather than using the server's timezone.
For example, the following SQL query to an oracle database:
select TO_DATE('12-13-2006 01:00','MM-DD-YYYY HH:MI') from dual
Under 2.9.5 returns:
2006/12/13 01:00:00 US/Eastern
Under 2.9.6 returns:
2006/12/13 01:00:00 GMT+0
There was clearly no time zone defined in the query, and it's the same Oracle server.
Is this an intended change? We have hundreds of developers working independently within our system so it's not possible to adapt each application to account for this change.
Any advice on moving to Zope 2.9.6? In the mean time I my try to back port specific bug fixes into 2.9.5.
That backwards incompatibility has been reverted on the 2.9 branch. You might try updating the 'DateTime.py' file from SVN: http://svn.zope.org/*checkout*/Zope/branches/2.9/lib/python/DateTime/DateTim... Eventually the feature will be re-added with a configuration option to enable it.
