    • MOODLE_35_STABLE, MOODLE_36_STABLE
    • Hide
      • Requires root access to your computer.
      1. Init your phpunit environment: php admin/tool/phpunit/cli/init.php
      2. Download the allhours.sh script and put it in your moodle base directory.
      3. From terminal, go to your moodle base directory and execute sudo ./allhours.sh.
      4. You will be prompted for the root password in order to allow the script to change the system date.
      5. Script output will run for every hour of March 15th and September 15th. Verify that all combinations end with an OK message and that the final message is "ALL OK, yay!!".
      6. IMPORTANT: Don't forget to change your system date and time back to current once you've finished testing this (from Control Panel or whatever, it depends of your system).

      Optional... without the patch applied and following the instructions above... you will get a failure @ September 15th 23:15 UTC. That's what this patch is fixing.

    Description

      While we cleaned a lot of the failures happening on unit tests moving from moodle tz handling to more robust php tz handling... there are still some problems that happen near TZ changes (twice a year).

      This issue is about to find them and, if possible, fix them. All problems will be reported here with 1) the UTC time they happened and 2) the complete error.
