Wrong time in one specific recurring event
See original GitHub issueOGCS Version: v2.9.0.0 Edition: Installed Sync Direction: O->G
Bug Description
I have several events in my outlook calendar that are successfully synced with Google Calendar, but I have one specific recurring event that always get a wrong datetime. In my Outlook Calendar it has scheduled for every day at 15:00, but after syncing, the recurring in Google Calendar is created for every day at 14:00. I tried to delete recurring event and to create it again and the problem persists. I have deleted the recurring event in Outlook and Google manually and then created again in Outlook and the problem persists. It occurs only with this specific event.
Steps to Reproduce the Issue
- Create a recurring event for every day at 15:00 in Outlook
- Sync with Google Calendar
- Check the created event with wrong time (14:00).
Any other information
- My timezone is
(UTC-03:00) Brasilia

Hi @phw198
It worked!! 🎊 👏
I have no idea why that mapping was created. I can’t exclude that mapping, but I’ve changed to something useless:
Thanks!!
That’ll be your problem then. OGCS should be able to detect that Outlook is
UTC-7
and convert that to an IANA timezone egAmerica/Denver
. But it’s not and it’s getting set to GMT (and the time changed instead no doubt), which is clearly wrong and would result it poor/non-existant DST calculation.Without a log file though I would not be able to troubleshoot further and it will be specific to your invitation and Windows config as to the particular issue. That said, pretty sure this is all catered for with the “custom timezones” I mentioned previously, but you’ve never said what version of OGCS you are running. Make sure it’s at least v2.9.0.
