Is there a way to set the time zone information to be unique for each Windows user? Like, a registry setting specific to that user.
For example, I want John to be CST and Mary to be PST. If John opens a program it says 5pm. If Mary opens a program it says 6pm.
Additional information: These users don't need to actually log in. I want to create two users, one for CST and one for PST, and use their credentials to run a program. The program will inherit their time zone settings and display the correct time.
More info: I plan on using these users in IIS for app pools so that different applications in the website can be run in different time zones and locales.
Thanks.
The only way Windows supports this is through Terminal Services, which won't help you. The time-zone settings are kept in the HKLM hive, and Terminal Services has a special setting that allows the Terminal Server to take a time-zone supplied by the incoming client-session and display that instead.
A better plan would be to use the timezone offsets in your code. StackOverflow is a better place to ask about that.
I haven't tried, but perhaps via cygwin you can use the TZ Environmental variable like under Unix/Linux. Env variables can be set on the command line by placing them before the command called - eg TZ=UTC xxxx.

I'm currently testing HP LoadRunner 12.53 with Oracle EBS R12.2.5.
I created a simple script using both Oracle Apps, and Oracle NCA + Http protocol (Log in, bring up a form and close/log out) and replayed but run into below error. (same error for both scripts)
nca_connect_server: cannot communicate with host
icx_ticket is correlated and works OK as it is picked and replaced in the parameter.
No need to correlate JSessionIDForms as EBS is running on socket mode.
It is s just simple script with single correlation but can't find any clue for the error.
What could be the root cause of the error?
Where should I look at for a clue? How to make the error / log more verbose and detailed
Thanks in advance
Record it twice. If the value shifts, then correlate it.
Please ensure that you have properly set up the environment before recording, Below steps need to be taken for setting up the environment
1.Set "record = names" flag for specific user profile in Oracle EBS Application** via administrator login (search google how to achieve this or simply ask your application team to do it for you)
2.Run Time Settings and Default.cfg file changes
Run Time Settings
Keep the below values to high limit to avoid replay timeout errors
Run-Time Settings > Internet Protocol >Preferences > Options>
Step Download Limit
HTTP-request connect timeout:
HTTP-receive receive timeout:
Keep-Alive timeout:
Run-Time Settings >Browser>Browser Emulation>
1) Simulate a new user on each iteration – checked
3. default.cfg file inside script directory
"RelativeURL={NCAJServSessionId}" statement in the default.cfg file rolls back each time we run the script so we need to check that it is
/forms/lservlet;JsessionIDForms={NCAJServSessionId} -- R12 Version or
/forms/formservlet?JServSessionIdforms={NCAJServSessionId} -- EBS 11
i Version
4. Correlation - Last but not the least
Ensure correct correlation of each and every parameter, The best way to achieve this is by recording the script 2 times and comparing them using a suitable tool, Correlate each value which might be changing each time you replay the script
Note :- The Oracle EBS is not fully supported by Loadrunner please download the loadrunner compatability matrix and check if your version is supported by Loadrunner.
I using some side api on my server what written in Ruby, and I found problem that timezone in Ruby app is different from my (on server sets proper timezone), I try to find solution how to configure it (like in php.ini) but I only getting results to set it in code. Can somebody tell me can I configure it like in PHP, e.g. in some ruby.ini file? Thanks!
Ruby gets the time zone information from the host's operating system. So you can either:
Change the time zone on your OS, or
Set the TZ environment variable. Eg.
ENV['TZ'] = 'US/Eastern'

I work for a non-profit and recently had to take on some sysadmin responsibilities, and and it is a new area for me.
We have a Apple X Server that is running Darwin, and from time to time, especially on reboots, the timer on it gets out of sync which causes the machine to be unaccessible via share. I would like to write a little script that i can run that logs-in, updates the time, and logs out.
The main reason I would like to do it this way, is so that I can share that script user/pw with other non-technical folk. Currently, I login as root "Administrator" and type the following, "date MMddHHmmYY" (substituting the values MMddHHmmYY with the current date/time) and the problem resolves the issue.
I have read that only the root can change the date on the box, is it possible to create a user who logs in as root, changes time, logs out, without giving the root user info away?
I have not written a script before, and don't really know where to start. If you can point me in the right places, I would be very grateful.
Is there a way to have my online application get the time and date from the user local machine instead of the server it resides on? The point is that there are users in different time zones and it will not make sense to have the standard UTC time stamp on their files. Thanks in advance fo ryour help.
Yes, with JavaScript new Date().
I have a program which I would like to run every X min
the problem is that the program is accessing a shared network and using AT command I can't use it (due to the fact that AT is running the program with SYSTEM ACCOUNT)
any ideas how to slove this issue ?
thanks
Does the /interactive switch buy you what you want?
"Use this parameter to allow the task to interact with the desktop of the user who is logged on at the time the task runs."
For more info see: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/313565
With the at command your options are either to run as the System user or the user which is currently logged on.
You might want to try having your program run as a scheduled task instead. That would give you the option to run under any account in which you have credentials (username/password). You can either set this up manually, through the control panel, or programatically from C# using this library
