In version 7.0.22 it could be used. Other timezone like gmt, utc, cet,... are fine. Could you please add it again? Test script: --------------- $datetime = DateTime::createFromFormat ('H:i T' , '09:30 SGT'); var_dump(DateTime::getLastErrors()); Expected result: ---------------- no error Actual result: -------------- Error: 'The timezone could not be found in the database' ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=76394&edit=1
