How did you found out your coordinates? Using the "To find your location click here" ? Or using a different website?
With the "find your location" it should work...

P.s. which Domoticz version are you using? System time correct? Time in Domoticz displayed correctly?

Thx for your fast reply

I first tried to do this with the settings. I tried tilburg,eindhoven,netherlands. Gave the wrong times. Then i tried newyork and california. California gave almost goodtimes.

Good to hear :)
Normally filling in something like 'Amsterdam, Netherlands' should be enough.

Yeah your right.
I skipped it during the installation of debian.
The standard locale settings in kde didnt do anything with the timezone.
So later as i found out in the internet i changed it in the clock settings.

Thx for your time!!!

What i did to solve my 1 hour off problem on domoticz was.

Log in with ssh to your raspberry,
type "date"
check if this is the correct time. if not, set your timezone correct by typing:
tzselect [push enter] type your numbers, i pressed 8 [enter], then 34 [enter], then 1[enter].
echo "TZ='Europe/Amsterdam'; export TZ" >.profile " [push enter]
sudo dpkg-reconfigure tzdata [push enter]

This fixed my problem with domoticz having wrong time (one hour off).
I'm a beginner. so maybe i help other beginners with this.
