Red Hat Satellite engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on Satellite to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "Satellite project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs will be migrated starting at the end of May. If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "Satellite project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/SAT-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

2. Select a day of the week.

Comment 1 Adam Ruzicka 2023-07-18 08:37:02 UTC 
I'm failing to reproduce this. If I now (2023-07-18, Tuesday) set the job to repeat weekly on Fridays, the job gets scheduled to be run on 2023-07-21 which is a Friday.

Any extra tips for reproducing this? What version of rubygem-foreman_remote_execution do you have?
Comment 2 Adam Ruzicka 2023-07-18 08:45:25 UTC 
And on a maybe related note, what is your locale?
Comment 3 John 2023-07-19 18:12:13 UTC 
I am currently showing rubygem-foreman_remote_execution-8.3.0-1.el8sat.noarch
Locale is EDT. I did try a variety of times to see if it was a time zone related issue.
Comment 4 Adam Ruzicka 2023-07-20 10:21:51 UTC 
Still failing to reproduce it. Is the issue that the cron line gets generated incorrectly or that it gets generated correctly but then the times generated using it are off?

If you kick off a job to run on let's say Fridays, what do you see in the recurring logic tab in the job?
Comment 5 John 2023-07-20 19:22:22 UTC 
After completing the wizard and selecting run, on the Overview tab it says the incorrect date. I selected Friday (7/21), at 12 noon (This should account for any timezone difference).
It displays "Scheduled to start at: 2023-07-22 12:00:00 -0400". 
When selecting the Recurring logic tab it displays:
Cron line:     00 12 * * 6
Next Occurence: 2023-07-22 12:00:00 -0400

I would be happy to share screenshots or do a remote session/gmeet to help verify. I continued to duplicate this issue on my Satellite as I was writing the reply.
Comment 6 Adam Ruzicka 2023-07-28 10:05:28 UTC 
Steps to reproduce:
1) Set your timezone to America/New_York for your browser. Setting it for your user inside Satellite seems to make no difference. Easiest way to achieve this is to start your browser like TZ=America/New_York firefox (feel free to substitute firefox for any browser you use)
2) Go to schedule a weekly recurring job

Actual results:
The days of week start with a Saturday, the started job is one day off

Expected results:
The days of week either start with a Sunday, but if they don't, it should be accounted for.
