NCC10281982B Posted September 29, 2012 Posted September 29, 2012 I have been wrestling FBCMD for months. My newest problem is the virtual private servers time zone. S3hlls (the hosting company) says it is located in Chicago. But, when run the date command in the shell it outputs Sat Sep 29 19:42:33 MSK 2012 Thhis is Moscow standard time according to google. I have scripts that I want to run on PST. So I would like to how how to change the system timeszone. I have already changed the TZ in the hosting control panel to PST. No effect. What do i need to do to make this right? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Waco Posted September 29, 2012 Posted September 29, 2012 I'd just shift the times in my scripts. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
NCC10281982B Posted September 30, 2012 Posted September 30, 2012 I'd just shift the times in my scripts. I thought about that. I'd probally screw it up even more. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
d3bruts1d Posted October 8, 2012 Posted October 8, 2012 Can you access /etc/localtime and /usr/share/zoneinfo/ ? If so, delete/move /etc/localtime and then create it as a symbolic link to an appropriate zoneinfo file. i.e. ln -sf /usr/share/zoneinfo/America/Chicago /etc/localtime Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

CheeseMan42 Posted June 19, 2013 Posted June 19, 2013 What OS are you using? I would think that ln is available on all Linux operating systems. Creating links is rather common. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nerm Posted June 19, 2013 Posted June 19, 2013 What OS are you using? I would think that ln is available on all Linux operating systems. Creating links is rather common. Are you logged in with root access also? Some hosting companies disable a lot of common commands for non root users. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
