ID: 40934 Updated by: derick@php.net Reported By: vaughn at solarword dot net Status: Open -Bug Type: Date/time related +Bug Type: Scripting Engine problem Operating System: Windows NT XANADU 5.2 build 3790 PHP Version: 5.2.1 New Comment: Come comments: - don't use the TZ env var for setting timezones - don't use broken timezone identifiers like CST6DST See: - http://no.php.net/manual/en/function.date-default-timezone-set.php - http://no.php.net/manual/en/timezones.php Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2007-03-28 06:06:36] vaughn at solarword dot net Description: ------------ Using Stock PHP5.2.1 msi package downloaded from php.net (Same bug appeared in php-4.3.11) Apache version=2.0.53 Problem: The first time that TZ is set, that value becomes the new default for future php runs. This doesn't appear to be like bug #37908 as the apache logs timestamps are not changed.
