Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/fosrl/pangolin/issues/1400

Hi,

I'm having problems with 2FA, found out the issue is the time difference.
Pangolin using UTC. Tried to change the docker compose with no success.

I tried adding the environment variable TZ=Budapest
and also tried adding these to the volumes:

    - "/etc/timezone:/etc/timezone:ro"
    - "/etc/localtime:/etc/localtime:ro"

Still after recreating the containers, it says UTC when execing into it and giving the date command.

Any solution to change the timezone for the Pangolin container?

Hi @Ahim13

TZ must be in format TZ=Europe/Budapest

yes, sorry in the example I wrote it incorrectly
I am using TZ=Europe/Budapest also tried TZ: Europe/Budapest in the compose file

Usually 2fa works fine if the time of the server is UTC and not your
local time zone because its smart enough to know the time difference.
Usually this becomes a problem if the actual time is wrong like a couple
of minutes off - is that the case?

The minutes are accurate / correct, only the hours are off as its in UTC and not CEST.
So far that's the only possible cause I found why 2FA wouldnt work.

Funny question but is the time on your computer off at all? It should be
correct in minutes and seconds.

Have you tried both UTC and CEST and neither work?

The minutes and seconds both are correct, only the hours differ, everything else matches.

How do you mean I tried UTC and CEST? Change the region of my phone to UTC to match the the docker region?

I tried changin the docker (Pangolin) region/time to CEST but that did not work, it just wont go to CEST, always shows UTC time.
