Hello everybody,

I have a problem with replication of data from master to slave server. The problem is, that the master is in a other timezone than the slave and so inserts with using the now() function creates different values on master and slave. If I want to update on the master and use the time as criterion the slave doesn't get the update. After searching the internet the problem is, that the MySQL Server starts with the default system timezone. But this could be changed. So configured my slave server so, that it has the same timezone as the master server. For doing this I used the:

set global time_zone='America/Argentina/Mendoza';

command. After changing the timezone everything works fine and all data is replictated correctly.

The problem is, that I must configure it manually every time the server restarts and I want to do it automatically by starting. But this doesn't work. I tried to use the

mysqld_safe --user=mysql --timezone=America/Argentina/Mendoza

command, but the server starts with SYSTEM timezone. I although put an entry in my.cnf configuration file which looks:

#[mysqld_safe]
timezone = America/Argentina/Mendoza

But this doesn't work to.
Can anybody tell me what's my error, or what I although could do to start my Server in another than the SYSTEM timezone?
I use the MySQL 5.0.18 Server on a Suse Linux 10.0

Regards Michael
