mysql内部时区,如何设置MySQL的时区？

On one server, when I run:

mysql> select now();

+---------------------+

| now() |

+---------------------+

| 2009-05-30 16:54:29 |

+---------------------+

1 row in set (0.00 sec)

On another server:

mysql> select now();

+---------------------+

| now() |

+---------------------+

| 2009-05-30 20:01:43 |

+---------------------+

1 row in set (0.00 sec)

I thought this might be useful:

There are three places where the timezone might be set in MySQL:

In the file "my.cnf" in the [mysqld] section

default-time-zone='+00:00'

@@global.time_zone variable

To see what value they are set to:

SELECT @@global.time_zone;

To set a value for it use either one:

SET GLOBAL time_zone = '+8:00';

SET GLOBAL time_zone = 'Europe/Helsinki';

SET @@global.time_zone = '+00:00';

(Using named timezones like 'Europe/Helsinki' means that you have to have a timezone table properly populated.)

Keep in mind that +02:00 is an offset. Europe/Berlin is a timezone (that has two offsets) and CEST is a clock time that corresponds to a specific offset.

@@session.time_zone variable

SELECT @@session.time_zone;

To set it use either one:

SET time_zone = 'Europe/Helsinki';

SET time_zone = "+00:00";

SET @@session.time_zone = "+00:00";

Both might return SYSTEM which means that they use the timezone set in my.cnf.

For timezone names to work, you must setup your timezone information tables need to be populated: http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.1/en/time-zone-support.html. I also mention how to populate those tables in this answer.

To get the current timezone offset as TIME

SELECT TIMEDIFF(NOW(), UTC_TIMESTAMP);

It will return 02:00:00 if your timezone is +2:00.

To get the current UNIX timestamp:

SELECT UNIX_TIMESTAMP();

SELECT UNIX_TIMESTAMP(NOW());

To get the timestamp column as a UNIX timestamp

SELECT UNIX_TIMESTAMP(`timestamp`) FROM `table_name`

To get a UTC datetime column as a UNIX timestamp

SELECT UNIX_TIMESTAMP(CONVERT_TZ(`utc_datetime`, '+00:00', @@session.time_zone)) FROM `table_name`

Note: Changing the timezone will not change the stored datetime or timestamp, but it will show a different datetime for existing timestamp columns as they are internally stored as UTC timestamps and externally displayed in the current MySQL timezone.
