Message-ID: <20021224094126.K20887-100000@malkav.snowmoon.com> MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk List-ID: List-Archive: (Web Archive) List-Help: (List Instructions) List-Subscribe: List-Unsubscribe: X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG I think that I have found a problem with installing the mod_php4 port. It has not set the time zone correctly for me for quite some time. Consider the following: 
";
echo "Local: " . date( "D, j M Y H:i:s" ) . "
";
echo "Z:     " . date( "Z" ) . "
";
echo "O:     " . date( "O" ) . "
";
echo "T:     " . date( "T" ) . "
";
echo "Env:   " . getenv("TZ");
?>
Which is outputting: GMT: Tue, 24 Dec 2002 14:14:51 Local: Tue, 24 Dec 2002 14:14:51 Z: 0 O: +0000 T: GMT Env: US/Eastern This is on the following system: zeus:jkikpole>uname -a FreeBSD zeus.cairodurham.org 4.7-STABLE FreeBSD 4.7-STABLE #7: Tue Nov 19 20:26:25 EST 2002 jkikpole@zeus.cairodurham.org:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/ZEUS i386 Meanwhile, on another system that is running: [jaime:jaime]> uname -a FreeBSD malkav.snowmoon.com 4.6-RC FreeBSD 4.6-RC #2: Tue Jun 4 13:32:21 EDT 2002 jaime@malkav.snowmoon.com:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/MALKAV i386 I get the following output for the same script: GMT: Tue, 24 Dec 2002 14:16:56 Local: Tue, 24 Dec 2002 09:16:56 Z: -18000 O: -0500 T: EST Env: This means that the FBSD 4.7 system with the mod_php4 port version 4.2.3 is not understanding that its time zone is EST. For some reason, it has an environment variable of "US/Eastern" which the FBSD 4.6 system running mod_php4 version 4.2.1 does not. Despite that environment variable, the actual time zone that the mod_php4 binary understands itself to be in is still "GMT". This causes all kinds of fun with my web mail systems. ;) Any advise or pointers would be appreciated. I've tried to RTFM (and even the freshports.org CVS system and a little of the source code) but have had no luck figuring this out. Can anyone else even reproduce this error?
