Just in case my guess is correct, here is a link to a copy of the Shanghai timezone file, which you can download and restore to the directory.

no, no file missing, Shanghai is there.

ls -l

lrwxr-xr-x 1 root bin 33 Apr 8 14:34 Shanghai -> /usr/share/zoneinfo/Asia/Shanghai

That isn't a file. From what you posted, that appears to be a circular link.

Compare it to the rest of the contents of the Asia zoneinfo directory.

Isn't it the ln command produce this link? and I can't copy that file to /usr/share/zoneinfo/Asia

cp: /usr/share/zoneinfo/Asia/Shanghai: Too many levels of symbolic links

[jggimi]

You do not have the file. You have a link, which points to itself in a loop. Please delete the link and restore your missing timezone file from backup, or if you have no backup, copy the file I have provided above, or extract the file from installation media -- it can be found within the base76.tgz fileset.

Until you correct your error, you will not be able to use Shanghai time.

yeah, you're right, issue resolved, thank you sir

[jggimi]

I'm glad you have corrected the problem! As you no longer need it, I've deleted the zoneinfo file from my web server.
