Altered my php.ini to use the following config as well: date.timezone = "Australia/Sydney" date.default_latitude = -35.308142 date.default_longitude = 149.124518 Thinking it could be a timezone issue. Also attempted use of gmdate. What I found to work was: <?php echo date('m', strtotime('first day of +1 month')); ?> Expected: 06 Result: 06 Test script: --------------- <?php //Expected 06 echo date('m', strtotime('+1 MONTH')); //Result 07 //Expected 06 echo gmdate('m', strtotime('+1 MONTH')); //Result 07 //Expected 06 echo date('m', strtotime('first day of +1 month')); //Result 06 Expected result: ---------------- 060606 Actual result: -------------- 070706 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=62193&edit=1
