Setting Domoticz Server time in Raspberry pi

[cvasantrao]

Hi,
I have installed domoticz on RPi3 and RPi3 shows the correct time. But domoticz time is about 3.5 hrs ahead. Can anybody help?
Thanks

Sudo raspi-config, set time zone. This should work

Have you installed/configured NTP?

sudo apt-get install ntp
By default it will use a pre-configured NTP server in /etc/ntp.conf
change that to some servers (min 3) at your location

server <ip or domainname NTP server(s)>

sudo service ntp restart

This eventually should sync your clock to NTP, depending on the difference between the NTP server and your raspberry this can take hours/days

Yes. My RPi shows the correct time. The problem is with Domoticz time.
Thanks

...mmh what about

sudo timedatectl set-timezone Europe/<City>
sudo timedatectl set-ntp true

in domoticz be sure to have setted up the right GPS coordinates

[cvasantrao]

Yes. I have set the GPS coordinates right using 'to find your location click here'. The sunrise and sunset timings are also wrong. Tried everything.
Thanks

Hm, the fact that sunrise/sunset times are wrong implies the location setting are wrong. Do you see anything in the logfile(s)?

Are you really sure you got the right longitude/latitude from the 'click here' search?

[cvasantrao]

Yes,because i have used these coordinates in arduino for a aquarium controller and i get the sunrise/sunset timings right.

Hello,
any update on this issue? I seem to have the same problem after I moved my Domoticz installation.
Short answer: fixed it!

Gps coords in Domoticz:
lon: 4.887, lat: 52.383, which is Amsterdam (and correct)

Domoticz 3.8153 claims : SunRise: 07:51, SunSet: 15:36

Weather.com states:
Zonsopgang 08:50
Zonsondergang 16:37

So this simply seems a timezone offset.
Back to the terminal:
date: Mon 1 Jan 10:37:16 CET 2018 (which is correct)

BUT: this was because the timezone was set in the .profile.

I have used the timedatectl commands by *emme* above and now my Domoticz dashboard shows the correct sunset times!
Also the times in the Dashboard are better.

Thanks, and best wishes for 2018!

in domoticz be sure to have setted up the right GPS coordinates

Worked on my RPI as well..

Not wanting to bump a topic for nothing: timedatectl worked for me too.
Tnx
