Sunrise/Sunset rules not working

So I have been trying to get my outdoor flood lights to turn on at sunset and turn off at sunrise. I have the trigger setup as sunrise or sunset and the script setup to the same. In the rule data I have no nodes selected but I do have a scene selected (floods on or floods off). In days of the week I have every day selected for both rules and I did not modify anything in the +/- minutes. When I look at the log for each script it says "Scheduled sunset timer for Tuesday, December 11 2012 12:57PM" or "Scheduled Sunrise timer for Tuesday December 11, 2012 12:49AM".

Any clue as to why this would be happening? Sunrise happens around 6:30a and sunset is around 4:15pm here.

It could be that you need to visit the Tools/Options page to setup your lat/long so that it knows where you are located.

I thought I did that already but I will double check. When I first set everything up the log file did say that the sunset was scheduled at 4pm-ish for the next day and then a few lines later it changed to that odd time. I will double check everything when I get home, hopefully thats it.

Thanks

It looks like my lat/lon did not save when I entered the first time. Now it works fine, thanks!
