Hello,  
i have an ELK setup where in the discover pane the timestamp is wrong.

 ![kibana](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/elastic/original/3X/1/f/1f0aabd26fb856540e454de2a502d593ae92973f.png)  
the timestamp is different from event time for some reason.

the timezone setting is:

and the logstash setup is (from logstash/conf.d/\*.conf file)  
 ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/elastic/original/3X/e/c/ec7ca959ef9a20d4e1adb87a70ebef3e200d147f.png)

the ELK version is 7.6.0.  
i have a similar VM with the same setup where issue is not happening - ELK version there is 7.5.1.

what is a possible reason for that and how can i resolve that?

Hi,

**I have upgraded to 7.6.1** because of this bug: I used to see logs stop at one hour less (I am at GMT +1). Now, after upgrade, I have logs which are displayed with one hour too much!

This is the time on my host:

```
$ date
Tue 10 Mar 2020 10:36:09 AM CET

```

And this is what I see on Kibana. Notice it **shows logs from 11:35 although it is only 10:35.**

This is the version I have (on Debian 10): `kibana 7.6.1 amd64 Explore and visualize your Elasticsearch data`

Hi @Axl, what's your `dateFormat:tz` setting value in [Kibana](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/kibana/current/advanced-options.html#kibana-general-settings)?

Thanks, that fixed the issue. It was set to `Browser`, I set it directly to my timezone, and now the dates are displaying correctly 🙂

Thanks!
