If that approach doesn't work. The following step can be used as well to force Tomcat to use a certain timezone.
- Edit the <collage install dir>\options.bat
- Change the line that looks like this
SET JAVA_OPTS=-server -Xmx%CATALINA_MEMORY% - To look like this and reflect your own timezone.
SET JAVA_OPTS=-server -Xmx%CATALINA_MEMORY% -Duser.timezone=America/Chicago
The following kb doc shows the available options for the actual timezone. S123396
