Thank you for taking the time to write to us, but this is not a bug. Please double-check the documentation available at http://www.php.net/manual/ and the instructions on how to report a bug at http://bugs.php.net/how-to-report.php This is normal. The error log is not *written* by PHP, but by syslog. Syslog doesn't care about PHP's internal timezone, and thus formats the log message according to the system timezone. Just change the system timezone if it's incorrect. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2008-06-05 23:50:30] info at organicdata dot co dot za Description: ------------ I've noticed that changing the default PHP timezone using either php.ini date.timezone or date_default_timezone_set appears to have no effect on the timestamp used for each entry PHP writes to the file set by php.ini value error_log (when php.ini log_errors = On) It seems to use the system timestamp regardless. I've done some searching on the web but found nothing and am afraid I'm not sure whether a bug or by design but it seems strange enough to submit here Reproduce code: --------------- php.ini ------- log_errors = On error_log = myerrors.log mycode.php ---------- error_reporting(E_STRICT); date_default_timezone_set("UTC"); SOMEBADCONSTANT date_default_timezone_set("Africa/Johannesburg"); ANOTHERBADCONSTANT resulting myerrors.log ---------------------- [06-Jun-2008 00:41:34] PHP Notice: Use of undefined constant SOMEBADCONSTANT - assumed 'SOMEBADCONSTANT' in /prj/mycode.php on line 3 [06-Jun-2008 00:41:34] PHP Notice: Use of undefined constant ANOTHERBADCONSTANT - assumed 'ANOTHERBADCONSTANT' in /prj/mycode.php on line 5 Expected result: ---------------- As Africa/Johannesburg is 2 hours ahead of UTC, I would have expected the second myerrors.log entry to read [06-Jun-2008 02:41:34] PHP Notice: Use of undefined constant ANOTHERBADCONSTANT - assumed 'ANOTHERBADCONSTANT' in /prj/mycode.php on line 5 And even if the comment is that date_default_timezone_set has no effect, I saw the same when changing date.timezone in php.ini The error logging appears to ignore it completely and simply use the system time ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=45191&edit=1
