Java timezone problem under linux
In case Java is not detecting the correct timezone settings on you Linux OS, try the followings:
1. Determine the system timezone
ls -l /etc/localtime
2. Adding a $TZ variable to /etc/profile. Use the timezone return by the last command.
export TZ="GMT"
or one may also change the timezone in Java code
TimeZone.setDefault(TimeZone.getTimeZone("US/Eastern"))or by command argument
-Duser.timezone=US/Eastern
