Workround is below: function strftime_win($str) { $str = mb_convert_encoding($str, 'CP932', 'UTF-8'); return mb_convert_encoding(strftime($str), 'UTF-8', 'CP932'); } Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2015-01-22 21:36:48] kenji dot uui at gmail dot com I tested on PHP 5.5.21. Not fixed yet. Results: ---------------- あ ぁE e38182 e3818145 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2015-01-22 12:01:18] ab@php.net Could you please revisit this? There was a lot of locale fixes recently, you could check 5.5.21 or just some recent 5.5 on windows.php.net . Thanks. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2014-01-11 13:39:27] kenji dot uui at gmail dot com I found Windows system locale affects the result. I changed it to English(US), then I got expected result. The problem occurs in Japanese locale. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2014-01-09 12:36:10] ab@php.net Ok, sadly I can't reproduce it neither with 5.4 nor with 5.5, got your expected result with CLI and built-in server. There has to be something in your env causing this. Maybe you could try on some other machine, with some other locale, etc? Also note that under apache the locale is not thread safe (as apache under windows is threads based), there it might be possible because of it. Thanks. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2014-01-07 05:21:23] kenji dot uui at gmail dot com I've checked PHP 5.5.6, but not yet fixed. Thanks.
