I am virtualizing Debian 9 on a Vmware 6.0. Time is going nuts
0
I am using Debian 9 (64) with a german keyboard.
tzselect EUROPE/Berlin
local time now is 10:28
Debian date says: 03:28:30 CST 2019
I have switched off the "hardware" timesetting from the vmware host.
I use a local NTP server
kind regards,

Supposedly you have to change the idea of the OS of whether the (emulated) BIOS maintains its time in your local timezone, and not in UTC. Seehwclock(8)for more info. Basically, Debian installers default that setting to UTC, but Microsoft® Windows™ default it to LOCAL, and hence most virtualizing software assumes just that and pretends the H/W clock on the "machine" contains time in the local TZ. Look for "adjtime file" in that manual page.

I decided to install server with german settings and ask english speaking users to set their LANGUAGE from de_DE.UTF-8 to en_US.utf8
