Hi.
I meant the system environment variable. I do not really believe that
it causes the problem, because it shouldn't be able to shift by a
whole day. But this is the only thing I know of which may influence
time values. On second thought, I really think it isn't TZ, because
that influences only the value of NOW(), but not of constant values.
So please post an example (i.e. INSERT and SELECT), which shows the
problem you describe and a DESCRIBE for the table in question.
Bye,
Benjamin.
