Re: SET TIMEZONE doesn't affect to SELECT statement

[Mike Christensen <mike@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Strange, maybe there's some server setting because I get different results on mine..

set timezone to 'Europe/London';
select '2008-01-01 12:00:00 GMT+2'::timestamptz;
Result: '2008-01-01 14:00:00+00'


set timezone to 'Europe/Moscow';
select '2008-01-01 12:00:00 GMT+2'::timestamptz;
Result: '2008-01-01 17:00:00+03'

Hello; by tutorial I have tried the example:

set timezone to 'Europe/London';

select '2008-01-01 12:00:00 GMT+2'::timestamptz;

Result: 2008-01-01 15:00:00

set timezone to 'Europe/Moscow';

select '2008-01-01 12:00:00 GMT+2'::timestamptz;

Result: 2008-01-01 15:00:00

Why is the result identical ? Is something wrong ?

Thanks for suggestion.
