date - PHP4: Wrong date

Question

Apart from the discussion about old software, there's a problem with a PHP 4.3.10 instance in Apache 1.3.33.

This is the server date:

$ date
Qua Nov 14 11:41:25 BRST 2012

The PHP date seems to be correct:

echo '<?php echo date("Y-m-d H:i") . "\n"; ?>' | php
2012-11-14 11:41

However, the very same <?php echo date("Y-m-d H:i"); ?> in a file accessed via HTTP will show:

2012-11-14 10:41

How can I set PHP4 to get the same server time?

Answer 1

Just came to the solution:

In this version of Apache and PHP, if you change the server time, then you must restart Apache for the changes to take effect.
