CentOS 5, php 5.3 cli. tzdata 2009i. $ php -v PHP Strict Standards: PHP Startup: It is not safe to rely on the system's timezone settings. Please use the date.timezone setting, the TZ environment variable or the date_default_timezone_set() function. In case you used any of those methods and you are still getting this warning, you most likely misspelled the timezone identifier. We selected 'America/Chicago' for 'CDT/-5.0/DST' instead in Unknown on line 0 PHP Fatal error: PHP Startup: Timezone database is corrupt - this should *never* happen! in Unknown on line 0 Segmentation fault strace log. http://pastebin.com/f2b4d38c7 Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2009-07-18 01:00:01] php-bugs at lists dot php dot net No feedback was provided for this bug for over a week, so it is being suspended automatically.

You are *required* to use the date.timezone setting or the date_default_timezone_set() function.

We selected 'America/Los_Angeles' for 'PDT/-7.0/DST' instead in Unknown on line 0 "PHP Fatal error: PHP Startup: Timezone database is corrupt - this should *never* happen! in Unknown on line 0" /etc/localtime is a copy of the file for MDT and it shows up for OS time and nothing else. googling reveals that this same error keeps popping up in new php versions as if the original tz scripts get re-used each time without any updating until the same problem emerges after release. then the patch is made and the original scripts remain unchanged.
