How to change the time zone in CakePHP?

Question

How to change the time zone in CakePHP? My application uses the Indian time zone, but it is hosted on an American server, which occupies the US time zone. Can someone tell me how can I change the time zone?

Answer 1

You can set the time zone in /app/config/core.php:

date_default_timezone_set('YourTimeZone')    //php5.3 is required

edit: try adding this to your application /config/bootstrap.php

putenv('TZ=YourTimeZone');

Answer 2

Set time zone in app / config / core.php

Configure::write('Config.timezone', 'Europe/Paris')

Answer 3

Set the time zone in the application /Config/bootstrap.php(Cakephp 2.6 +)

date_default_timezone_set ('Europe / Dublin');
