/root/.profile is only going to be read for root login shells, like sudo -i or su - you can set environment variables in supervisord config which will just affect the supervised program, or set it system wide which amos is going tell you how you'll have to check the docs, but I believe in your [program:x] section you add environment=TZ="Australia/Sydney" -- SLUG - Sydney Linux User's Group Mailing List - http://slug.org.au/ Subscription info and FAQs: http://slug.org.au/faq/mailinglists.html
