Terrance, thanks for the info. In my case I do only have one timezone
(or at least I want to...). Using the string for dates is a good idea.
But this is a massive application that's been in production for years
with tons of date and timestamp fields spread everywhere across the code
and the db. So converting to strings is not a possibility now.
It still comes down to the fact that the mysql command line on my linux
box gets the date right, but it's converted incorrectly by JDBC and only
on the linux box (and works on WIndows)
When I first set up the box an installed Tomcat, the default Linux time
was gmt. I didn't change the Linux time to central until later. Any
chance that tomcat stored the timezone in effect when it was installed
and still is using that even though I changed the linux timezone? (Just
grasping at straws here).
