So do you need to modify the php.ini to fix it? The timezone in OSTicket is selected correctly, but it seems to be ignoring "Observe daylight saving (Current Time: 10/13/2014 6 pm)". Since we are in Daylight Savings Time, if I uncheck it, it should drop back an hour (actually to 6 PM), but if I check it, it should go back up to 7 PM as our server clocks currently say.
When I check it and hit Save Changes or uncheck it and hit Save Changes, the "Current Time" does not change.
