ID: 48530 User updated by: lieven_vaneeckhaute at symantec dot com Reported By: lieven_vaneeckhaute at symantec dot com Status: Bogus Bug Type: Date/time related Operating System: Windows XP PHP Version: 5.2.9 New Comment:
Most other time zones (all of them on Linux) are recognized but Beijing isn't on a Windows. This makes our customers in this time zone unhappy. PHP runs on their machines. We want to have the local time, not GMT or some other incorrect timezone. Setting a default time zone that is recognized(not Beijing) doesn't really solve our problem.

Due to the volume of reports we can not explain in detail here why your report is not a bug. The support channels will be able to provide an explanation for you. Thank you for your interest in PHP. YOu need to set the date.timezone setting: http://nl3.php.net/manual/en/datetime.configuration.php#ini.date.timezone ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2009-06-11 12:36:00] lieven_vaneeckhaute at symantec dot com Description: ------------ On Windows I'm running in timezone Beijing,... which is +08:00. If echo date("c") or date("r") it displays as Thu, 11 Jun 2009 12:27:54 +0000 rather than 20:27:54 +0800. To us for reporting reasons it is very useful to know what time it was on the local system. We run php as CLI. Reproduce code: --------------- <?php echo date("r"); ?> Expected result: ---------------- Display 20:27:54 +0800 rather than 12:27:54 +0000. Actual result: -------------- Thu, 11 Jun 2009 12:27:54 +0000 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=48530&edit=1
