n8n GENERIC_TIMEZONE environment value not applying correctly
By default n8n uses America/New York timezone, this is used by scheduling nodes and also shows as the selected timezone in each workflows settings: "Default:America/New York" is what is says.
To change this you set the required timezone as an environment variable. This should get teh schedule/cron nodes running atthe correct time, change the default workflow timezone etc.
I have tried every variation I can think of but cannot get it to apply correctly when running n8n in tipi.
I have set it these ways:
- directly in the docker-compose.yml for n8n-1
- as a reference in the yml to the app.env
- using a user-config yml and app.env both coded directly into the yml or again referencing the .env
It appears the timezone is applying for the schedule nodes and when using now() it is returning in the correct timezone. But the workflow time default value will not change, which makes me quesiton where else it is not applying.
I have a post on n8n community running as well to see if I can get any input there - https://community.n8n.io/t/timezone-setting-doesnt-take-effect/63400

Describe the problem/error/question I am trying to get n8n setup in runtipi, adding the GENERIC_TIMEZONE= to the environment part of the docker compose file. Have tried 3 different zones, Australia/Melbourne, Australia/Sydney and just for laughs a random one in America. The issue stays the same, in settings for a workflow the timezone still just...
