As you can see the failure is specific to Windows and 32bit jvm.
It is a regression introduced in 142_11b1.
Hi Edmund,

I have re-ran the test on winxphome and win2k again I see the failure.
That is now 5 different machines which I have reproduced the failure on.
Here is the WinXpHome machine which you can vnc into. where I have javatest running and you can see the failure with 1.4.2_11 32bit jvm installed into c:/j2sdk1.4.2_11.
The reason I was quick to log was because on winxp_pro_x64 when I had 32bit jvm installed the test failed. Once I installed windows-amd64 bundle the test pass.

machine: skinner.ireland
ip: 129.156.233.87
vnc pass:

You will find masterGUI-14a.ksh and jvm_args.setup in c:/JQA/ts142/JCK_test
The TimeZone test is consistently failing on XP Home. The .exe and .tar bundles have been used and different Locales tried. Service Pack 2 is installed and the test machine has all current updates.
The TimeZone test is pass on x86 Windows XP Pro SP2 (qt7.ireland). The .exe and .tar bundles have been used and different Locales tried. Probably problem is specific for Windows XP Home.
Patched or non-patched exe bundles were used on Windows XP Pro and it's all pass.
The test has been rerun on WinXPhome with the non patched exe bundle and is passing. The issue seems to be occuring only with the patched bundle on XPhome.
