Question about system date

[Daniel Martins]

Hello

I am not really sure under which topic this should go...

I have a java code that uses the system date. This works normally on a development server (running on Linux), however in System server (also with Linux) the system date is 2 days in advance...

I have check the dates in Linux, and they both match, so I am not sure where the issue comes from.

My question is: When using

 new Date();   

where is Java taking the actual date from?

Cheers

Hmmm.. that's weird java.util.Date should be taking it from the operating system date.

Do both systems have the same locale?
I had a similar problem once, was a problem with different locales
