Hello,

Use the java.util.Calendar class. It will help you.

Hi,

use the following:

Calendar vCalendar = Calendar.getInstance(TimeZone.getTimeZone("Asia/Calcutta"));
System.out.println(vCalendar.toString());

The Calendar instance will store the date in IST correctly.
Use the Calendar.get(int field) function to access the day,month,year,... directly.
You can use the java.text.DateFormat with the calendar instance to generate a formatted String.

Don't use the Date class at all, because it is more or less deprecated.

Best regards

Tobias

Hello,
I have resloved this problem by setenv.bat. The tomcat bundle provided by Liferay contains the setenv.bat inside the bin folder of tomcat.
modified the timezone inside the setenv.bat as
-Duser.timezone=Asia/Calcutta

This is the wrong way to do it.

After logging in you should go to the settings control panel to display settings and set the timezone to use.

Liferay works best running under UTC as it transforms all times from the various possible user timezones to UTC for storage, then converts back to the viewing user's timezone for display.

Setting it in the JAVA_OPTS that way breaks this automated conversion mechanism.
