time value won't come back from UTC

Hi there,

I'm fairly new to RoR, and I seem to be having a problem with :time types.

I save my times with a time_select on my form, to a time type field on MySQL.

Rails automatically pulls it back to UTC from my timezone (+02:00), but when I display it again, it stays at the UTC value, i.e. I enter in 6:30, and I get 4:30 on my list.

Is it just me, or is this a limitation of the time datatype in mysql, obviously all the datetime conversions work perfectly, like in my timestamps...

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi, what’s goal or what are you trying to accomplish? Where’s a list of

actions that you performed in script/console? Please provide some code

snippets if you can.

Related to #1030 Multiparameter Attributes incorrectly do time zone conversion on time-only columns - Ruby on Rails - rails   maybe ?
