Hi,
I have a website in production wich uses a lot of date and time
calculations to show specific information.
The timezone of my hosting service (Dreamhost) is PDT, and the timezone
of my potential clients is CEST. There are 9 hours of difference between
them.
Is there an environment variable that I could adjust in my rails
application, so all date/time values be set to CEST timezone?
Thanks.

E.g.: ENV[''TZ''] = ''Europe/Madrid'' The allowed values for TZ can be found by looking in the /usr/share/zoneinfo directory. -- Philip Ross http://tzinfo.rubyforge.org/ -- DST-aware timezone library for Ruby
