Hi Guys,
I want to convert a datetime field for an entry in my database to a
specified timezone. Here is the code I have so far:
from dateutil.parser import *
from dateutil.tz import *
from datetime import *
event = get_object_or_404(Event, id__exact=eventid)
edate = event.date
tz = gettz('America/New_York')
edatetz = edate.astimezone(tz)
Now, when I do this, I get something along the lines of "naive
datetime" for the edate variable. However, if I change the edate
variable to the following line of code, it works:
edate = datetime.now(tz=gettz('UTC'))
Any ideas why this is happening? Is it the way I am storing the
datetime in my MySQL database? I'm using a standard datetime field -
is it missing something?
Cheers,
Chris
