datefmt() function adds an hour to the actual time. about sc-im HOT 7 OPEN

What do you have in set in tm_gmtoff configuration variable..? You may have to adjust it.
EDIT: if you are off by an hour try reducing it or increasing it by 3600..

The issue persists. I tried adding and subtracting 3600, but neither has any effect.

What value do you have configured?

from sc-im.

The default value is 10800, I had it set at both 7200 and 14400 (+- 3600). datefmt stills shows the wrong hour.

I wonder if this has something to do with your LOCALE

I don't know.

The output of date is Wed Oct 4 16:10:05 EDT 2023. I am in the right timezone in everything.

It's the epoch timestamp that it gets wrong when I do datefmt from the string.

But when I convert the same date using date on my system, it works fine:

I wonder if this has something to do with your LOCALE

I think it has something to do with my timezone.

I am currently on Eastern Daylight Time, which of course, adds an hour to to my time during the summer.

However, the date command on my system outputs the right thing, but it looks like the datefmt() command in sc-im is confused with that. Is there a way in the config to zet the time zone to EST? I think this might fix the issue.

Thank you.
