RT upgrade: all times GMT

RT Users

Hi,

I just upgraded from 3.6.3 to 3.6.5 and now all times are displayed as
if they were GMT.

I have this:

lethe# grep zone *
RT_Config.pm:# $Timezone is used to convert times entered by users into GMT and back again
RT_Config.pm:# It should be set to a timezone recognized by your local unix box.
RT_Config.pm:Set($Timezone , ‘US/Eastern’);

And I am in US/Eastern, so it “should” work according to:

http://lists.bestpractical.com/pipermail/rt-announce/2007-July/000150.html

I have tried to put ‘GMT’ as a timezone, no go either.

Commenting out the line works.

Duh… Timezones are different here (on FreeBSD 6.x) from GNU Libc, so I
had to add:

Set($Timezone, ‘America/New_York’);

Problem solved… thanks to #rt! :slight_smile:

Having failed to discover weapons of mass destruction, Washington
shifted its propaganda to “establishing democracy.” That flatly refutes
their earlier claim that the “only question” was whether Saddam would
disarm. But with a sufficiently obedient intellectual class, and loyal
media, the farce can proceed untroubled.
