This is a follow-up of this other original post.
ENVIRONMENT:
Cassandra running on OpenSuse (over its Java Virtual Machine).
Server set as timezone "Europe/Zurich".
The tests include this server only. No other servers involved.
TEST:
"BEGIN BATCH USING CONSISTENCY ONE insert into tsmeasures(id,'2015-01-01 00:00:00','2015-06-01 00:00:00') values ('2812621',1,2) APPLY BATCH"
RESULTS OBSERVED FROM PHP (on the same Cassandra sever):
"SELECT '2014-06-01'..'2015-12-01' FROM tsmeasures WHERE id IN(2812621)"
unpacked_value=1420066800, str_time='2015-01-01 00:00:00' <= OK
unpacked_value=1433113200, str_time='2015-06-01 01:00:00' <= NOT OK !
Thus the dates were interpreted as GMT+1.
SOLUTION:
In "cassandra_env.sh", add the option -Duser.timezone when running Java:
JVM_OPTS="$JVM_OPTS -Duser.timezone=Europe/Zurich"
REPEATING TEST AFTER THE FIX:
"BEGIN BATCH USING CONSISTENCY ONE insert into tsmeasures(id,'2015-01-01 00:00:00','2015-06-01 00:00:00') values ('2812621',1,2) APPLY BATCH"
NEW RESULTS OBSERVED FROM PHP AFTER THE FIX (on the same Cassandra sever):
"SELECT '2014-06-01'..'2015-12-01' FROM tsmeasures WHERE id IN(2812621)"
unpacked_value=1420066800, str_time='2015-01-01 00:00:00' <= OK
unpacked_value=1433113200, str_time='2015-06-01 00:00:00' <= OK
Dates interpreted as:
