Strange java time zone date conversion problem

I want to convert ms-since-1970-timestamp to a date with time zone (Germany)

These are two variations of the code – at least I remember using it, how it works:

import java.text.SimpleDateFormat;
import java.util.Calendar;
import java.util.Date;
import java.util.GregorianCalendar;
import java.util.Locale;
import java.util.TimeZone;

public class TestDate {

    public static void main(String[] args) {
        Calendar cal = GregorianCalendar.getInstance(TimeZone.getTimeZone("Germany"),Locale.GERMANY);

        Date d = new Date();
        cal.setTime(d);

        System.out.println(String.format("%02d.%02d.%04d %02d:%02d:%02d",cal.get(Calendar.DAY_OF_MONTH),cal.get(Calendar.MONTH)+1,cal.get(Calendar.YEAR),cal.get(Calendar.HOUR_OF_DAY),cal.get(Calendar.MINUTE),cal.get(Calendar.SECOND)));

        SimpleDateFormat df = new SimpleDateFormat( "dd.MM.yyyy HH:mm:ss.S" );
        df.setTimeZone(TimeZone.getTimeZone("Germany"));
        System.out.println(df.format(d));
    }

}

It's really strange because I can't find the reason why the time is two hours short

It should be: 16:05:20 code printing: 14:05:20 two variants

Can someone help me and tell me what's wrong here?

Solution

This is the problem:

TimeZone.getTimeZone("Germany")

There is no such time zone ID, so Java's infinite wisdom decides to return only UTC without telling you what is wrong Replace with:

TimeZone.getTimeZone("Europe/Berlin")

Wikipedia has a list of IANA time zone IDS, but it is a little outdated (when writing); IANA data is the latest, but it is not so easy to browse
