I recently upgraded an application from postgresql 7.4.2 to 7.4.5, and now I am having
timezone nightmares.
I checked on the old server, and found that in the postgresql.conf, the timezone was
set for unknown. The timezone portion of the records was being set to GMT+06 ( for
reference, I am in GMT-06 ). Now, on the old server, when i pulled data, the dates
came back correctly.
However, on the new server, I am getting dates that adjust properly for the timezone
in the record, which means that my records show as having been entered a day before,
which is killing my users. Can someone help me understand the timezone nightmare, and
how i can fix my records so that they appear on the correct day?
I am using the exact same jdbc library to connect to both servers, and my setup is:
OLD Setup
Redhat 9
Postgres 7.4.2 (compiled from source)
NEW Setup
Redhat 3 Enterprise
Postgres 7.4.5 (compiled from source)
Thanks,
