Thanks for your help, but this is the problem I have. I can't specify the timezone right when I start mysql with
mysqld_safe --user=mysql --timezone="America/Argentina/Mendoza" or by setting the TZ enviroment variable and than start the server. The timezone setting is ignored every time I start my server and the timezone is set to SYSTEM, which is Europe/Berlin for my computer. The only way to change is to connect to the running server and execute set global time_zone='America/Argentina/Mendoza'; After this the timezone of the server is right. I wan't to know if anybody else has this problem or maybe another solution to set the right timezone by starting my server. Maybe I make something wrong, but I don't know what this could be. If anybody has a solution please tell it to me, it isn't very useful to set the timezone manually after every restart.
