For years I have always downloaded the timezone files from [dev.mysql.com], extracted, then just copied them over to C:\wamp64\bin\mariadb\mariadb10.11.8\data\mysql, restarted, and my timezone tables were available to me.
First, mysql.com no longer provides the separate files at the link above, however, I found they are actually still there just no link is provided on the page. For example, [downloads.mysql.com], works and has the separate files.
With that said, copying those files in, like I have for years, does absolutely nothing any more. I use stuff like 'CONVERT_TZ' in my db statements and without the timezone information loaded these no longer work.
I'm not sure if the timezone tables have changed with the newer versions of mariadb or what is going on. Anyone have a solution? Surely I can't be the only one who needs the timezone information loaded in their db.
