CreationTime and LastUpdated in local time instead UTC in InstanceTable

Post by m.weber.insiders » Fri 07 Nov 2014 09:43

Hi.
I'm using dotConnect for Oracle to persist workflows.
I have the problem, that the dates in CREATIONTIME and LASTUPDATED are in local time instead of UTC.

Any ideas how to solve this problem?
Thanks for your help.

Greetings

Thank you for your report. We will update the \WF Services\OracleInstanceStoreLogic.sql and \WF Services\NET45\OracleInstanceStoreLogic45.sql scripts which are provided with dotConnect for Oracle installation to store UTC instead of local time and notify you.

We have fixed this issue. The fix will be included in the next public build of dotConnect for Oracle, which we plan to release in about 1-2 weeks. We will inform you when it is available for download.

The behaviour is changed in the new (8.4.293) build of dotConnect for Oracle: SYS_EXTRACT_UTC(SYSTIMESTAMP) is used now in WF Services scripts for the date columns.
