Time value won't come back from UTC

Hi there,

I’m fairly new to RoR, and I seem to be having a problem with :time
types.

I save my times with a time_select on my form, to a time type field on
MySQL.

Rails automatically pulls it back to UTC from my timezone (+02:00),
but when I display it again, it stays at the UTC value, i.e. I enter
in 6:30, and I get 4:30 on my list.

Is it just me, or is this a limitation of the time datatype in mysql,
obviously all the datetime conversions work perfectly, like in my
timestamps…

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi, what’s goal or what are you trying to accomplish? Where’s a list of
actions that you performed in script/console? Please provide some code
snippets if you can.
