Only way to fix this for me is to do a rollback.

Bug reports usually should go directly to the Github issue tracker of the relevant / affected component. Rationale is that the chances are high that it won’t get noticed when positing here (keep in mind this is a user based support forums with a few developers looking into it on a volunteer basis).

On a quick glance i seems the matching repository would be this:

Also could you mention which timezones you did use? Could be possible that the timezone doesn’t exist in your tzdata of your Linux system. If you use a Debian based system try installing tzdata-legacy.

Although I didn’t post the original bug, for me when I changed it to US/Eastern, it absolutely broke the server and interface.

Hi, I am not able to reproduce the issue. I am able to switch to US/Eastern without any problem. So it should be something with the system/postgres setup.

How did you install our software? On which Disto? Is the timezone data installed? Is the timezone legacy data installed?
