Cassowary failing to report the results back to the farm

Hello,

I'm trying to put the cassowary buildfarm member back to work (it's
been inactive
for almost a month because i've moved to another project and switched
the machine).

The run_build script has trouble with sending the test results. The error is :

Status Line: 491 bad ts parameter - 1157995969 (Mon Sep 11 17:32:49 2006 GMT) is
in the future.
Content:  bad ts parameter - 1157995969 (Mon Sep 11 17:32:49 2006 GMT)
is in the future
Web txn failed with status: 1

It's not clear  to me where does that date-in-the-future come from.
The machine's
date is set correctly:
$ date
Mon Sep 11 11:00:30 PST 2006

Any ideas about what might cause this?

Um, no.  I am currently in the PST time zone, and I can say from
first-hand experience that the current time is 2:21 am, not 11 am.  I have
confirmed this by looking out the window and noticing a distinct lack of
light.  The time you have quoted is about 8.5 hours in the future.
Suggest you either verify your time zone, or look out your window
;)

Thanks Jeremy,
You are right,  I hadn't realised that 'PST'  indicates a timezone
(the wrong one..).
I'll have to change the timezone to GMT+2   .

Sorry for the noise !

FYI, the buildfarm scripts all ignore timezone completely. All time 
calculations are done in terms of UTC (a.k.a. GMT for these purposes). 
The result you saw was from some sanity checks built into the web app.

All machines that report buildfarm results should run an NTP client or 
some equivalent means of keeping the system clock reasonably accurate. 
NTP clients are available for every platform we support (including Windows).

If you want to see the UTC time setting, give the command: date -u

cheers
