Sysdate gives different timezone connecting through listener [message #135389]

We have newly installed Oracle 10g R1 on a HPUX 11i Itanium machine. If connected internally the sysdate gives time with correct timezone(GMT0), same as in TZ environment, but if connected through the listener sysdate comes with GMT-4. And ENVS='TZ=GMT0' has been put in listener.ora but without a luck.

Any thoughts.

Cheers Arnar

Maybe you need to change the TZ environments and then restart the listener, because it's listener spawn the SERVER process.

And you should query something from metalink.

Just for later reference - look at the ENVS='TZ=...' part below:

LISTENER =
 (DESCRIPTION_LIST =
   (DESCRIPTION =
     (ADDRESS_LIST =
       (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = myserver)(PORT = 1521))
     )
   )
 )
 SID_LIST_LISTENER =
  (SID_LIST =
    (SID_DESC =
      (ORACLE_HOME = /opt/oracle/product/10.2.0/db_1)
      (ENVS='TZ=EST')
      (SID_NAME = mydbname)
    )
  )

For RAC, you may also need to do the following:

srvctl setenv database -d mydbname -t TZ=EST
srvctl stop database -d mydbname
srvctl start database -d mydbname
