Hi all,

maybe it is a stupid question and I just didn't notice something, but:

Is there any way, how to setup a different time zone than EST in Redhat bugzilla? (Even UTC would be better...:)

Thanks for pointing to the right place, if there is any,
Milos


Timezone is set during the initial install, but is quite easily changed any time.

/etc/localtime is a file that the system utilities and libraries all use to determine the timezone. This file is sometimes a softlink, but is most often a copy os a timezone file found in: /usr/share/zoneinfo

The procedure is simple, and almost painless.

To change the system timezone from whatever it is to Mountain Daylight Savings time, for example:

# cp /usr/share/zoneinfo/MST7MDT /etc/localtime

Thats it! Unfortunately, only applications that start after that file change, get the new time. To make everything ok, a reboot is necessary.

Good luck!


Phil,
May I suggest you read the original post again?

he is suggesting that if you go to something like:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=441664
you will see
"Opened by Todd Denniston  	 on 2008-04-09 08:12 EST"
instead of
"Opened by Todd Denniston  	 on 2008-04-09 13:12 UTC"
