Changing The Default Time Zone Of A Current Timestamp In MySQL
I have a shared host which uses the time zone MST (GMT-7), and I cannot seem to change the time zone for my own database.
What is the best way to create a timestamp field in a table that has the default value be the current time in GMT-0?
Is setting the default value of the timestamp field to "DATE_SUB(NOW(), INTERVAL -7 HOUR)"

Default Current Timestamp Issues
Using MySQL 4.1.7. I have a sole TIMESTAMP column in the table: insert_date TIMESTAMP DEFAULT CURRENT_TIMESTAMP, Looking at the timestamp docs, a query with NULL or empty, should cause the column to use the current time for its default value, but is not automatically updated. However, putting NULL or simply leaving blank in an INSERT query, gives 01/01/0001. Any ideas?

Time Zone Name Tables
Having some troubles with an installtion on AIX. We've installed mysql alongside our own product which uses a mysql db. Checking the logs we get an error: 051111 16:52:43 [Warning] Can't open and lock time zone table: Incorrect information in file: './mysql/time_zone_name.frm' trying to live without them Tried to read the mysql db and got: Didn't find any fields in table 'help_keyword' Didn't find any fields in table 'time_zone' Didn't find any fields in table 'time_zone_name' Didn't find any fields in table 'time_zone_transition' Didn't find any fields in table 'time_zone_transition_type' and trying to read the 'time_zone_name' table gives: ERROR 1033 (HY000): Incorrect information in file: './mysql/time_zone_name.frm' The timezone we have set is CST6CDT, asopposed to one of our other AIX boxes which is GMT0BST. My question is should this be causing a problem, and if so is there a way around it without changing timezones on the box?

Easy Way To Get Time Zone Offset
I need to get the standard offset value from GMT for any given time zone name in the mysql.time_zone_name table. Is there an way in MySQL to do this? For example: I have 'US/Eastern' time zone. I know that the value I'm looking for is -5. How can I get this out of MySQL. I don't care about DST offset, just standard time offset.

Time Zone For Query Browser?
My server time is set to CST. phpMYSQLadmin shows CST. The website that the information is stored on is CST. When I do a query from MySQL Browser, it's providing information back in GMT. Does the browser undo timezone? It makes since on a corporate level, so that the time is always being pulled up correctly. So, my question is. If all my servers and sites are all set to CST, do I still need to do queries with a time zone change in it, CST?

I just want to cross check if mySQL has got any default number of aconnections that it accepts e.g. Max 50 connections at a time and if it goes beyound that then it will give error...

Datetime And Timestamp As Default
I would like a column created_timestamp to be populated on record creation (and preferably not updatable); and a column updated_timestamp to be populated on record creation, and then automatically updated on any update. should created_timestamp be of type datetime? and updated_timestamp be of type timestamp? and is ordering of the columns an issue (i.e. only the first gets updated)? mysql complains on the following? create table history ( name varchar(20) not null, createdtimestamp datetime not null default current_timestamp, updatedtimestamp timestamp not null, primary key(name) );

How To Set Default Values For Timestamp Fields
what is the syntax for specifying the default values for timestamps in MySQL in the CREATE TABLE command? I have 2 timestamps, one for when the record was entered, the other for any subsequent updates. I know that the first timestamp column will be set automatically on updates, but how does the other for creation timestamp get set. My app is not generating the SQL directly so setting the value using the NOW() command is not an option, as the inserts are coming from different timezones I cannot let the clients set their own values.

DATE / TIMESTAMP Default Values
im is having problems with auto inserting date in my table. I dont know what is the default value i will set if column type to DATE. It was succesful though if is use the TIMESTAMP type in the column and is using CURRENT_TIMESTAMP as the dafault value. mysql automatically inserts the current date and time to the database everytime a new record is inserted. The problem with using TIMESTAMP is that i only want the date and not the additional time. Is there a default value I can use for the DATE function instead of using TIMESTAMP? I already tried NOW(), CURDATE(), CURRENT_DATE() to no avail

Error #1293: There Can Be Only One TIMESTAMP Column With CURRENT_TIMESTAMP In DEFAULT Or ON UPDATE Clause
I am using MySQL 4.0/4.1 version. And I am trying to add two timestamp columns to a single table. The columns are insert_date and updat_date to capture the date/time the record was initially inserted as well as the date/time the record was last updated respectively. When I try to set one column (insert_date) with a default value of CURRENT_TIMESTAMP and the other column (updat_date) with ON UPDATE CURRENT_TIMESTAMP, I end up getting the following error: #1293 - Incorrect table definition; there can be only one TIMESTAMP column with CURRENT_TIMESTAMP in DEFAULT or ON UPDATE clause Is there any way around this problem?

Date/Time As A Default Values For A Table Column

I am using the mySQL Administrator and will not allow me to use a function like CURRENT_TIMESTAMP() or NOW() as a default value. I used to do this with other databases (I always add a column to all of my tables called InsertDateTime and UpdateDateTime. It helps to track down data entry problems)

PHP/MySQL Sorting By Date & Time (using Non Military Time)
This is probably a simple issue but I have searched online and can't find an answer. I am using PHP/MySQL and I guess the most intuitive would be to have three select boxes containing HOUR / MINUTE / AM,PM option. Then store the time into mysql using there functions so I can output the data sorting them all by date and time. All the examples I have seen are for military time only but I'm sure there has got to be a simple mysql function or php function that converts non military to military and a formatting function to display with the AM / PM. But I have not found it.

Changing Existing Mysql Account Usernames
The situation I have is, I have an existing MySQL user account, lets say its called "myacct". What I want to do is change "myacct" to "testacct", leaving all the account privileges intact. From looking at the database I thought I would be able to accomplish this by issuing UPDATE commands on mysql.db, mysql.tables_priv, and mysql.user to change all occurrences of "myacct" to "testacct" but this gives me some weird problems when I try to access the database using "testacct".
