I have at my profile GMT+1!!! I don't live in GMT +3 to make the server match my local time... if the problem is of the server's it should be corrected. I already set up an apache + php + mysql server before and had to configure the environment time so my server matched the local time. |

That's funny. I'm on GMT and my profile is set as GMT and its -1 hour incorrect. Perhaps its not allowing for British Summer Time and hence only -1 hour incorrect instead of -2.

| So now that we've identified and confirmed the problem is there any chance of getting it fixed? |

Does anyone have the correct time?
Ok. On my phpbb test board the time is set to GMT and the time on the computer is
| Code: |
puggy@legolas puggy $ date
Sat Jun 28 15:37:38 BST 2003
|
Seconds before this I posted a message to my board and it gave me this timestamp...
| Code: | | Posted: Sat Jun 28, 2003 2:36 pm |
Err...., this is really weird. Unless its a BST issue I don't know whats going on.
Post on www.bobspants.com/phpbb/ and see what timestamps you get as I can possibly diagnose the problem from there seeing as it seems to be a phpbb problem.
EDIT: Posting as a guest probably will yield a GMT (Well, what phpbb thinks GMT is) timestamp as you have no personal preference. I'm monitoring the board though and so far the Guest post was also an hour wrong.

[Yes I know it's an old thread! I was pointed here from http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic.php?p=2438950#2438950]
It looks like you have to change the timezone in your profile twice a year to get the timestamps displayed correctly for your local timezone.
However, if you change the timestamp format in your profile to display the timezone, it will always be displayed as GMT or +0000 no matter what you set the timezone to. That is a bug!
