[Bug 1353069] Re: db_format_tsfield() returning time value with offset on POstgres

 

To any future readers who've stumbled across this bug report because
you're having time issues in Mahara, it's also worth noting that there's
a separate problem that can be caused if Mahara's web server has a
different timezone than its database server,  and we added a
$cfg->dbtimezone setting in config-defaults.php to take care of this:

Title:
  db_format_tsfield() returning time value with offset on POstgres

Status in Mahara ePortfolio:
  In Progress

Bug description:
  On postgres db_format_tsfield() calculates time by doing
  FLOOR(EXTRACT(EPOCH FROM {$field})) which apparently doesn't make
  sense if we are using fields without timezone (by reading this
  http://postgresql.1045698.n5.nabble.com/Possible-problem-with-EXTRACT-
  EPOCH-FROM-TIMESTAMP-td2125933.html).
