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:
<HTML><BODY><PRE>
<?php
echo "GMT: " . gmdate( "D, j M Y H:i:s" ) . "<BR>";
echo "Local: " . date( "D, j M Y H:i:s" ) . "<BR>";
echo "Z: " . date( "Z" ) . "<BR>";
echo "O: " . date( "O" ) . "<BR>";
echo "T: " . date( "T" ) . "<BR>";
echo "Env: " . getenv("TZ");
?>
</PRE>
</BODY></HTML>
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?
Thanks in advance,
Jaime
