Description

When a teacher looks at calendar dates and weekdays, they're all OK. But when a teacher opens the "Detailed month view" for the same month, the weekdays are shown incorrectly (see the attached pic). In the example pic, August 22nd is marked correctly in the small block view but incorrectly (Moodle claims August 22nd to be Tuesday).

... incorrectly in the detailed view. Could this be a postgres-related bug?

Some other users have had the similar problem (see: http://moodle.org/mod/forum/discuss.php?d=71054). I was able to fix our moodle setup with the server settings mentioned by Joseph Rézeau in the above mentioned thread but I think it would still be worth checking since a lot of moodle administrators have reported the same bug/feature. Apparently using "server time" (instead of a specified location) affects these two calendar view differently.

I can't reproduce this with our testing and staging site, and we are using MySQL. Just a quick FYI

I have this same issue on Windows/Apache/MySQL system. So not a Postgres issue.

I was able to reproduce this issue on the most recent version of 1.6.x, but not in 1.8.x. So 1.8 already fixed this issue. I could take a look at the codes and see if I could backport to 1.6 to fix this bug. Also attach a screenshot (it seems to be different from the alignment issue that earlier screenshot shows though). I think this problem also exist in 1.5.x too.

Hi Yu, before I dig into the code do you happen to know anything about what might have caused this? Thanks!
