Iām new to OpenHAB; however, something seems off. I am running the stable build from the OpenHABian image on a Raspberry Pi 3 so far with no real problems; however, Iāve installed the 2.0.0 Astro binding, Iāve configured the Thing with my latitude/longitude, and Iāve linked the two channels Iām interested in (astro.sun.local.rise#start and astro.sun.local.set#start). I want to do very basic things like turn outdoor switches on at sunset and off at sunrise.
Anyway, when I look in events.log, my datetime values seem correct for my location:
2017-03-16 15:00:28.739 [ItemStateChangedEvent ] - astro_sun_local_rise_start changed from NULL to 2017-03-16T07:14:00.000-0400
2017-03-16 15:00:28.747 [ItemStateChangedEvent ] - astro_sun_local_set_start changed from NULL to 2017-03-16T19:09:00.000-0400
When I look at the āControlā area in the Paper UI, however, the same values appear with the MONTH incorrectly set to February instead of March! I see 2017-02-16 with the same sunrise and sunset times.
Does anybody know whatās wrong here? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!
i think datetime values are stored as unix timestamps and then calculated according to your local date/time settings. So first I would check if my local date/time settings on the OS level are correct.
HTH,

Yes, just ran ādateā over SSH, and it came back exactly as expected with the current date, time, and timezone. Itās bizarre because like I said, the values are correct in the log file - itās just in the āControlā area of the Paper UI where itās reporting the incorrect month.
so it would be easy for a bug to creep into OH/Eclipse code.
If that were the case though, everybody would suffer. Maybe nobody looks in PaperUI when Astro logs, events etc. all work okay.
