NOTE

This function requires the Standard Edition of the Java Service Wrapper.

The timezone property makes it possible to define the time zone in which the wrapper will be executed.

The time zone can either be specified with the offical abbreviation code (e.g. MST, GMT, JST, etc.). Please have a look at the Supported Timezone Table for a full overview about the available timezones. Or instead of using the abbreviation the UTC notation: UTC(+/-)xxxx .

If the time zone property is not set or set incorrectly, the Wrapper will be started by default in the local system's time zone.

wrapper.timezone=CET        //Set the Timezone to Central European Time
wrapper.timezone=UTC+0100   //Set the Timezone to UTC+01
wrapper.timezone=UTC-0530   //Set the Timezone to UTC-0530 (-5 hours and 30 minutes offset to UTC) 

The plus(+) sign is not mandatory when setting to an offset greater 0.

NOTE

Changing the timezone will affect the timestamps in all log output (in Standard and Professional), as well as the wrapper.timer.n.interval property and the Mail Settings (in Professional).

NOTE

This function requires the Standard Edition of the Java Service Wrapper.

Sometimes you want to turn off Summer (Daylight Savings) Time for some reasons like having the wrapper run on different servers in different timezones and keeping the log files with the same timesstamp, without changing the System's timezone. With this property you can specify wether the wrapper will change the timezone information to summer (Daylight) or winter time automatically, if the wrapper.timezone property has been set.

wrapper.timezone.use_summer_time=FALSE

The above example will disable the time change to summer and winter time.

NOTE

By default this property is turned ON. If a timezone doesn't use Summer Time, this property will be effectless. This also means that the wrapper won't respect the property if the timezone was defined with UTC+/-xxxx. Also when a Summer (Daylight) Time has been defined for wrapper.timezone this property also has no effect.
