default timezone

[Scott]

We are in the same boat.

I was also looking for a way to set a domains timezone through CPanel because server logs are also annoying with the timestamps written to system time. Or possiblely through some Apache directive that could be added to htaccess file.

I am going to check further on the Apache thing and post back results.

Well you can set your env variable using an Apache directive. Place this line in your .htaccess file in your document root directory:

SetEnv TZ America/Chicago

After placing this in my .htaccess file, PHP works like a champ and you no longer have to make the adjustment in your PHP code. However, MySQL still requires the per connection manipulation.
