Exabytes and time
I was doing one freelance work where I had to use LAMP technology. So my client has ordered hosting from Exabytes. Interestingly I had some bugs on theirs servers. I digged some more and I find out that their PHP time is wrong. Here’s the screenshot:
As you can see from the screenshot the server shows a date with more then 1 day difference! Well, I’ve never bothered to check if the servers were from US or local, I was under impression that they were local. Well, seems like not! So that’s how I get a almost a day difference in dates!
I used very basic date functions to get the date shown on their servers. The code is taken from php.net and now I need to add the difference to get Malaysian time.
I will post my solutions here, stay tuned!
Update: I used very simple code:
$h = “-8″;// Hour for time zone goes here e.g. +7 or -4, just remove the + or -
$hm = $h * 60;
$ms = $hm * 60;
if (!$date) {
$date=date(”Y-m-d”);
$getdate = gmdate(”Y-m-d”, time()-($ms));
}

Hello Admin,
I guess your client’s account is hosted in our US server, hence it is showing US Standard Mountain Time which is GMT -0700.
If your client wish to move back to our Malaysia server, please feel free to contact our Customer Service.
