How to Convert UTC Date To Local time Zone in MySql Select Query

I am using this Where Condition in One Of my query with MySql Database.

My Problem is that i have one displaytime column in my table but that table 

column shows the data in UTC Time.and i want to convert that displaytime 

column in the Local Time Zone.so how can i provide this facility from query itself.

I have goggled the things and by that i knew that something like 

SELECT CONVERT_TZ() will work for that.but its not working for me.

Here is my query in which i need to convert displaytime to local time zone...so 

can anyone please guide me?

WHERE displaytime >= '2012-12-01 00:00:00'
  AND displaytime <='2013-02-22 23:59:59'
  AND ct.organizationId IN (
    SELECT t.organizationId
      FROM organization_ AS t
      JOIN organization_ AS p ON t.treePath LIKE CONCAT(p.treePath, '%')
     WHERE p.organizationId = 10707

SELECT CONVERT_TZ() will work for that.but its not working for me.

Why, what error do you get?

SELECT CONVERT_TZ(displaytime,'GMT','MET');

should work if your column type is timestamp, or date

http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/date-and-time-functions.html

#function_convert-tz

Test how this works:

SELECT CONVERT_TZ(a_ad_display.displaytime,'+00:00','+04:00');

Check you timezone-table

SELECT * FROM mysql.time_zone;
SELECT * FROM mysql.time_zone_name;

http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.5/en/time-zone-support.html

If those tables are empty, you have not initialized your timezone tables. 

According to link above you can use mysql_tzinfo_to_sql program to load 

the Time Zone Tables. Please try this

shell> mysql_tzinfo_to_sql /usr/share/zoneinfo

or if not working read more:

 select convert_tz(now(),@@session.time_zone,'+05:30')

replace '+05:30' with desired timezone. see here - https://.com/a/3984412/2359994

to format into desired time format, eg:

select DATE_FORMAT(convert_tz(now(),@@session.time_zone,'+05:30') ,'%b %d %Y %h:%i:%s %p')

you will get similar to this -> Dec 17 2014 10:39:56 AM
