Issue: Daylight Saving Time (DST) Causing 2FA Issues

[ewhsde]

I, and all clients, were recently unable to access ProjectSend (r1605) after our clocks went ahead an hour. 2FA Codes expired 55 minutes prior to the current time, as we are now GMT/UTC +1.

My hosting provider has attempted changing the time in MySQL and PHP, however this doesn't seem to have worked.

My temporary solution was to change 2FA code expiry to 120 mins in AuthenticationCode.php and deactivate the feature after logging in. I would ideally like to reenable this, however first I'd need to know how to fix authentication codes being sent with the time being 1 hour behind.

Any help greatly appreciated. PHP 8.1.27 mySQL 8.0.36-cll-lve

Hi,

It looks like your server time is an hour behind.
You should check on your server if the daylight saving is enabled.
