Custom AbsoluteTimeAutoAdvancer timeout delay issue AEM 6.4

Hi Team,

We have written a custom implementation of OOB AbsoluteTimeAutoAdvancer workflow class. We try to schedule the workflow to trigger at a particular time (UTC time).

The code is working fine in various timezones, but for JST timezone, it seems to add random delays - 10 mins, 17 mins, 26 mins etc.

Because there is no consistent time duration, we are not able to identify what could be causing these delays.

We set a schedule time in UTC as metadataMap property and in AutoAdvancer implementation

Do we have any configuration which is causing delay in particular timezone. Please help.

Thanks!

Did you setup a new scheduler service in AEM here?

On click event there is sling servlet which will trigger the workflow. In workflow participant step Timeout is "Immediate" and Timeout handler we customised it by extending AbsoluteTimeAutoAdvancer class.

You may validate your implementation against this sample code to iron out any issues -
