Thread: Date problem on Aix jdk1.4.1
Hey folks,
Got a weird Date related problem on AIX 5.3 with JDK 1.4.1. This occurs with any of the 8.x drivers, the 7.4 driver works fine.
When I query any table with a regular old Date in it, the first row that comes back is correct (some Date value with 00:00:00 as the time) , however all subsequent rows are advanced by 1 hour (they have a time of 01:00:00) . This happens on any table.
When I run it from some other platform (such as Windows or Linux) against the same database, the values are all correct.
Anybody seen anything like this on AIX or any other platforms?

This happens on any table. It's quite weird that it's different on the first row, otherwise I'd say it was a local JVM timezone issue. Do you have some test code we can try? Without knowing what the underlying column's type is or which ResultSet accessor you're using it's just guesswork. -O
Here is a really simple test:
public class DateTest {
public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
Class.forName("org.postgresql.Driver");
Connection connection =
DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:postgresql://host/db");
Statement statement = connection.createStatement();
ResultSet rs = statement.executeQuery("select id, effective from
date_test");
while(rs.next() ) {
Date effective = rs.getDate("effective");
int id = rs.getInt("id");
System.out.println("id="+id+", effective=" +
effective.getTime());
}
connection.close();
}
}
Schema Stuff:
CREATE TABLE date_test
(
effective date,
id int2
)
INSERT INTO date_test VALUES ('2005-07-26', 1);
INSERT INTO date_test VALUES ('2005-07-26', 2);
INSERT INTO date_test VALUES ('2005-07-26', 3);
The output results:
/usr/java14/bin/java -cp "/usr/insight/postgresql.jar:." DateTest
id=1, effective=1122350400000 <--- correct
id=2, effective=1122354000000 <--- +1 hour
id=3, effective=1122354000000 <--- all same from here out

It's quite weird that it's different on the first row, otherwise I'd say
it was a local JVM timezone issue.

It seems ok under 1.4.2 on Linux, with driver build 310, in NZST:
id=1, effective=1122292800000
id=2, effective=1122292800000
id=3, effective=1122292800000
What timezone is the AIX box in exactly? Can you try a 1.4.2 JVM on there?
The only thing I can think of is some sort of Calendar modification
caused by the first getDate() is carrying over to subsequent calls (the
calendar used is shared between calls), but given that the only thing
that code really touches is the zone/dst offsets, and they're reset each
time, I'm not sure what exactly it would be.
You could try putting something like
System.err.println("calendar: " + cal);
in org.postgresql.jdbc2.TimestampUtils.toDate() around line 253, just
before the return, and see if there are any notable differences between
the first and second calls..

Timezone on AIX box is EDT (you can see Calendar below too).
As for the Calendar output, the values on AIX between rows is identical
(except for the time=1122350400000). To compare AIX and Windows, I
see a single difference: on Windows the DAY_OF_YEAR=365 compared with
AIX DAY_OF_YEAR=?, not sure if that means anything?
Can anybody run this test on Aix 5.3, either to confirm they get the
same behavior, or use Java 1.4.2 and verify everything works fine?

I also see a slight difference in the timezone info (transitions=139 vs. transitions=235) but I don't think that should cause any difference in theory. > Can anybody run this test on Aix 5.3, either to confirm they get the > same behavior, or use Java 1.4.2 and verify everything works fine? Hm, I can only guess that it's some difference in Calendar behaviour between 1.4.1 and 1.4.2 then.. I'll send you a build of the driver with my pending timestamp changes included -- there are lots of changes in the date parsing area and I'm interested whether they change the behaviour you see or not. -O
Thanks Oliver! The driver you sent me worked correctly on aix! Is there a plan for an official (or somewhat official) driver release soon?

I suspect some odd behaviour to do with manually setting ZONE_OFFSET and DST_OFFSET on a Calendar -- the current driver meddles with those, but with my changes it doesn't. > Is there a plan for an official (or somewhat official) driver release > soon? All going well I'm planning to commit my changes to CVS HEAD this weekend, and they'll get picked up in the next official build. -O
