How do I resolve this error, "ERROR 1298 (HY000): Unknown or incorrect time zone: 'UTC'"? When I run the following command I get an error, however one of my scripts requires it.

SET time_zone = 'UTC';
ERROR 1298 (HY000): Unknown or incorrect time zone: 'UTC'
Simply run mysql_tzinfo_to_sql /usr/share/zoneinfo | mysql -u root mysql -p


$ mysql_tzinfo_to_sql /usr/share/zoneinfo | mysql -u root mysql -p

Trivia: If you want to know what the HY00 stands for (a follow up I asked years later)....
