Debian/Beaglebone clock changing to wrong date (conflict between coonmand and systemd-timesyncd)) #131

The Error

Tested on multiple beaglebones green and beaglebone green wireless with Debian 9.9 IoT and Debian 10 IoT clean on Brazil (UTC -3).

All of them are having the same error. Something reseting the systemtime.

The correct time in my TZ is sex fev 21 12:55:52 -03 2020 and in UTC Fri Feb 21 15:56:06 UTC 2020. But it's showing UTC as 12:56.

Running multiple timedatectl returns:

Timezone file:

debian@beaglebone:~$ cat /etc/timezone 
Etc/UTC

I've also tryied changing hwclock with --utc and --localtime.

More tests. I've disable ntp: sudo timedatectl set-ntp 0, after i've set clock with sudo timedatectl set-time '2019-10-31 16:24', And then i've renabled ntp sync (timesyncd).

The is the results. The hwclock was kept on the wrong time. Durint the set-ntp 0 the clock was kept on 3 hours less.

I've tryied changing to my timezone. The localtime hour error was even greated (3h error + 3h timezone).

The solution

There is a conflict between coonmand and systemd-timesyncd.

Debian for Beaglebone uses connmanto control wifi connection. When connecting to a wifi it uses agent on enabling connmand, that also have a NTP server.

connmand try to set timezone from the network, and try to set time using it's internal NTP server.

The solution is disabling connmand NTP leaving it just for systemd-timesyncd. To do that edit connman config file:

sudo nano  /var/lib/connman/settings

Edit global config to be:

[global]
OfflineMode=false
TimeUpdates=manual
TimezoneUpdates=manual

Thanks @Goostavo sounds very sane, let me configure this by default. ;)
