    Hello,

    I've recently acquired a dedicated server and change it's default timezone from NewYork to Europe/Bucharest. Changed in both WHM server time settings and PHP configuration settings.
    Everything changed accordingly except cronjob timestamps (saw this in /var/log/cron) which is still in the NewYork timezone for some reason. I tried restarting crond but still the same.

    Anyone could shed some light on this? Thank you.

    Hello,

    Does your hardware clock match the same time zone? EX:

    Code:
    hwclock
    If not, you may need to sync it via:

    Code:
    hwclock --systohc --localtime
    Thank you.

    Fixed it with the following:

    /etc/init.d/rsyslog restart
    /etc/init.d/crond restart

    Seems the rsyslog and crond have problems adapting to server time-zone changes.
    The restart did the trick, but only when restarted them both.
