Jboss has the wrong time

Question

Sounds like a dumb question, but I am confused by this and couldn't figure it out.

My Jboss app server (4.2.2) running on my dev machine (ubuntu 810) is using the wrong time.

Basically all magazines, etc. show that time is 1 hour less than it actually is. My system time and zone are correct.

I've also tried using the -Duser.timezone = xxx switch, didn't change anything.

Kind of confusing here ... has anyone else seen this or knew what might be causing it?

You might want to read DaylightSavingsTimeIssues on the JBoss Wiki. If your operating system time and local timezone are okay, look at the JVM level and try updating the TZDB (see Timezone, Daylight Saving Time, and Sun TZupdater for Java Runtime Environment (JRE) if you are using a Sun VM).

If your problem is daylight saving time, then this page should be helpful. Check if your JRE is up to date.
