AFAIK that would only be true if some part of your client stack is issuing a SET TIMEZONE command. (libpq will do that if it finds a PGTZ environment variable set, but not in response to plain TZ.) If that's true, and you can't/don't want to change it, you could try select reset_val from pg_settings where name = 'TimeZone'; regards, tom lane -- Sent via pgsql-general mailing list (pgsql-general@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-general
