Device Session date format incorrect for TZ in CHROME

[jonwaland]

Is there an existing issue for this?

• I have searched the existing open and closed issues and I checked the docs https://jokob-sk.github.io/NetAlertX/

The issue occurs in the following browsers. Select at least 2.

• Firefox
• Chrome
• Edge
• Safari (unsupported) - PRs welcome
• N/A - This is an issue with the backend

Current Behavior

Date and TZ correctly reported in System-> General:

but not in devices -> sessions - ON CHROME (142.0.7444.176 (Official Build) (64-bit)) BUT FINE ON FIREFOX:

but is correct in Events:

(No idea if this is a chrome defect or app)

Expected Behavior

respect date format.

  netalertx:
    container_name: netalertx

Thanks for the report.

Unfortunately I can't seem to be able to reproduce the issue on my end.

In the code, both places use the same function called localizeTimestamp() so not sure how this would produce different results.

Could you please double check:

1. You run the latest version of the application?
2. Re-open the page in incognito and different browsers to check this is not a caching issue?

1. You run the latest version of the application? - Version: DEVELOPMENT 00000000 (latest docker image, forced refresh)
2. Chrome - fails on normal and incognito. Fine in Edge, and Firefox.

Chrome:

Firefox of same item:

Have cleared local cache and restarted chrome. No change.

I didn't notice that the issue is Chrome only related. Thanks for the information. I'll have a look later once I get time to work on this again.

Hi,

Chrome was showing dates as MM/DD/YYYY because Intl.DateTimeFormat('default') uses the browser’s locale (en-US), unlike Firefox which uses system locale. I added a new UI_LOCALE setting lets us force a consistent locale (e.g., en-GB) so dates display correctly across all browsers.

Please pull latest netalertx-dev image and test.

fixed. thanks
