I have some problems on production environment with Time.now. It gives a  
different time to the one I get on development. In environment.rb I have  
config.time\_zone = “Madrid”, but when I put Time.now on the console, I  
get the name of the day (Friday, por example) on differente languages if  
I compare development and production. I’ll appreciate any help.
