    [ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/WFLY-972?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12994739#comment-12994739 ] 

Tomasz Adamski commented on WFLY-972:
-------------------------------------

Cannot reproduce error.
I'm using the following code:

{code:java}
@Resource
    private TimerService timerService;

    @Schedule(dayOfWeek="Sun", persistent=false)
    private void sunday(Timer t) {

    }

    public String checkTimer() {
        Timer timer=timerService.getTimers().iterator().next();
        return "Next invocation for locale "+Locale.getDefault()+" is "+timer.getNextTimeout().toString();
    }
{code}

Results:
* without settings locale: Next invocation for locale pl_PL is Sun Aug 24 00:00:00 CEST 2014
* -Duser.language=en -Duser.country=US:  Next invocation for locale en_US is Sun Aug 24 00:00:00 CEST 2014
* -Duser.language=it -Duser.country=IT: Next invocation for locale it_IT is Sun Aug 24 00:00:00 CEST 2014
* -Duser.language=es -Duser.country=PE: Next invocation for locale es_PE is Sun Aug 24 00:00:00 CEST 2014

> My ejb class contains this timeout method:
> {code:java}
>     @Schedule(dayOfWeek="Sun", persistent=false)
>     private void sunday(Timer t) {
>     }
> {code}
> When calling this timer.getNextTimeout(), it returned the Sunday after next Sunday (expecting next Sunday) when running on certain locales (it_IT, es_PE, etc).  It works as expected on other locales like en_US.  
> I added -Duser.language=it -Duser.country=IT to JAVA_OPTS when starting standalone server to use that locale.
> Seems to be a JDK bug.  There could be some differences how dates are calculated in different locales, but shouldn't be that big like skip one Sunday.  Today is Wed.
> One workaround is "to use locale.English when instantiating GregorianCalendar in the following classes."  I tried it on 7.2 with it_IT, and got the expected Sunday.
