Changing the time

[benningtonr]

I have gotten lots of help here lately.
My latest issue is with the time, and time zone, I am in Norfolk Virginia, i have tried several different things to change the time, I am not sure which one it was, but that is how I blew up my last VM.
So correct guidance, not me guessing would be much appreciated.

For time I would recommend installing NTP

Code: Select all

yum install ntp -y

Then run the following to force the date to current

Code: Select all

ntpdate pool.ntp.org
ntpdate pool.ntp.org
ntpdate pool.ntp.org

For setting machine timezone there is a good post here

and you also need to set the timezone in the /etc/php.ini, instructions are here
