Description
When a date is stored in database as 2013-06-12 17:30:00+00:00. It shows up as 19:30 when using:
TIME_ZONE = 'Europe/Stockholm'
In summertime, as it is now, Stockholm is +1 so I was expecting it showed up as 18:30.
I hope I don't have misunderstand how timezones work. But I have put up a question on StackOverflow without receiving any answers. I came to the conclusion that this might be a problem with the Django.

I feel really stupid for not catching that. Sorry to disturb with a Bug report. Really grateful for the help!
Note:
See TracTickets
for help on using tickets.
Stockholm is in CEST, which means UTC+2 in summertime.
>>> import datetime >>> import pytz >>> dt = datetime.datetime(2013, 6, 12, 17, 30, 0, 0, pytz.utc) >>> stockholm = pytz.timezone('Europe/Stockholm') >>> stockholm.normalize(dt.astimezone(stockholm)) datetime.datetime(2013, 6, 12, 19, 30, tzinfo=<DstTzInfo 'Europe/Stockholm' CEST+2:00:00 DST>)
