CentOS 6.8 - Time Zone Issue
-
Has anyone encountered an issue where the "date" command displays the correct timezone (with correct date/time), but yet the timezone appears incorrect in other areas? For example, the server in question runs Tomcat, and the Tomcat application is pulling the time as if the timezone was set to GMT.
I ran yum update last night which seems to be the issue. It upgraded the following packages:
If I do "yum history undo [latest history id here]" the problem goes away.
Any ideas?

Well tzdata is in the update. Try ONLY that package and see if that does it.

@scottalanmiller Oooh I was thinking that. I will try that and report back!

Yep, it's tzdata. Hmm. Now what....

Just don't update that. Sounds like maybe it is bad. Double check your settings, but it sounds like a bug with tzdata, just hold it back for the moment.

Yeah. I guess I can just do this for now.
yum update --exclude=tzdata*
And I suppose it's safe to assume it'll be fixed soon.

Yup, they might have it fixed any day for all you know.
