[users@httpd] Timestamps of access log entries
Hi there,
I am having troubles with the switch over between GMT and BST with
respect to the entries going in the log files, I am using apache 2.0.55
BTW.
The timezones on our servers are set to GB and during British Wintertime
the log file entries are stamped correctly, however when moving to BST I
have to add the following to the apache startup script to get the
timestamps in BST format.
TZ=GMT0BST
export TZ
And obviously remember to take this out when returning back to GMT in
October.
For the actual logfile configuration I use the following:
Logformat "%{%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S}t %{X-Forwarded-For}i %{host}i %r %s %b
%D %q %{User-Agent}i %{IR_PORTAL_COOKIE}C %{Referer}i" ORU_extended
CustomLog "|/opt/app/apache/bin/rotatelogs
/opt/app/apache/logs/site_access_log.%Y-%m-%d 86400" ORU_extended
Is there any other way of ensuring the correct localtime gets put into
the logfile entries?? I have tried using %X in place of %H:%M:%S but
this has no effect.
Cheers
Steve

Why not change the timezone on the whole server, not just Apache?

Hi there,
I've not had any responses to this problem so I assume no one else has
the same issues. Any offers?
I've already tried changing the timestamp strings in the log format to
localized but this appears to have made no difference...
Cheers
Steve
