I tried to change the timezone (using timeconfig) i have always:
dragon_devel=# SELECT to_char('2005-03-27'::date,'DD/MM/YY');
to_char
----------
26/03/05
(1 row)
NOTE THAT IF I USE TIMESTAMP IT WORKS::
dragon_devel=# SELECT to_char('2005-03-27'::timestamp,'DD/MM/YY');
to_char
----------
27/03/05
(1 row)
i am using Red HAt 8.0
I have tried the same command on 2 different servers (same postgres version)
dragon_devel=# SELECT version();
version
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
-----------------------------
PostgreSQL 7.3.2 on i686-pc-linux-gnu, compiled by GCC gcc (GCC) 3.2
