Server time not same to local time

Question

I am from Bangladesh.I am not getting the right time from this code ?

 <html>
      <head>  
        <title>Server time</title>
      </head>
      <body>
        <p>The time at the server is 
        <?php 
        print date('h:i:s A');
        ?>
        </p>
      </body>
    </html>

Output is:

The time at the server is 08:58:51 PM

But actual time is then 01:58:51 AM

always use date_default_timezone_set(); for correct time zone. check below link for supported timezones http://php.net/manual/en/timezones.php — prasanna puttaswamy, Mar 24 '18 at 20:09

if you use your server for use in your own country, you might wanna move it for faster response as well :) looks like the server is on another continent :P — Medda86, Mar 24 '18 at 20:19

Always use date_default_timezone_set() function for correct time in your script In your case use like this

<?php
    date_default_timezone_set("Asia/Dhaka");
    echo date_default_timezone_get();
?>

The time at the server is Script timezone differs from ini-set timezone. – Biddut Mar 24 '18 at 20:44
Then open your php.ini file with the File Manager in cPanel and set your desired time as well – Fahim Siddiqui Mar 24 '18 at 21:02
