is your time zone correct in the settings?

You are near Montreal?
It is -5 hours UTC.

If you type the command date in the console of the computer that is running openhab what date and time do you see?
I get this on mine:
Wed 10 Jan 2024 11:58:26 AEDT

You may have to set the timezone on the computer?
If it is a pi4 does it have a real time clock?
Where do you get the time from?

Welll… you got it… thought by setting everything in Openhab with the geolocalisation would set you up… seems not… I had to go in Raspberry Pi Config to make it work.

Thanks now I’m heading for some Rules programming, a little step at a time :slight_smile:

Good you worked it out.

Here is something I did a while ago that might be handy for you as well.
