Hello,

Starting with Canvas 2026-02-11 release, reporting that I started seeing this deprecation warning during db migrations, apache error log, and delayed job logs.

DEPRECATION WARNING: `to_time` will always preserve the full timezone rather than offset of the receiver in Rails 8.1. To opt in to the new behavior, set `config.active_support.to_time_preserves_timezone = :zone`. (called from <class:Application> at /var/canvas/config/application.rb:62)

Does canvas have plans to address this or should we opt in to the new behavior?

Thanks!

It will be addressed at some time in the future. It's just a warning at this point; when we start working on the upgrading to Rails 8.1 it will be addressed.
