Solved Bitwarden: Wrong timezone makes TOTP unusable on sites

[necrevistonnezr]

I just tried to log into Bitwarden in a new browser and enter the TOTP code generated by Authy.
It was 08:23 here in Germany (UTC +2).
However, Bitwarden throws the following error:

Invalid TOTP code! Server time: 2020-09-25 06:23:46 UTC IP: 127.0.0.1

Something similar happens when I try to modify my Amazon account...

My server has the following time zone:

timedatectl
                      Local time: Fr 2020-09-25 08:28:51 CEST
                  Universal time: Fr 2020-09-25 06:28:51 UTC
                        RTC time: Fr 2020-09-25 06:28:51
                       Time zone: Europe/Berlin (CEST, +0200)
       System clock synchronized: yes
systemd-timesyncd.service active: yes
                 RTC in local TZ: no

So I guess the Bitwarden App has the wrong time zone?

Looks like the bitwarden app needs a setting to allow modifying the timezone then.

Do you know if this works if your server/host timezone is set to UTC and thus everything including bitwarden is UTC?

[necrevistonnezr]

sudo dpkg-reconfigure tzdata

Current default time zone: 'Etc/UTC'
Local time is now:      Fri Sep 25 09:36:14 UTC 2020.
Universal Time is now:  Fri Sep 25 09:36:14 UTC 2020.

It now works with the Bitwarden login but not with Amazon - I also contacted Amazon - apparently they have a problem on their side!
