ID: 22814 Comment by: paulmah at pbi dot com dot sg Reported By: dizit at mail dot ru Status: No Feedback Bug Type: Date/time related Operating System: Windows XP PHP Version: 4.3.0 Assigned To: hholzgra New Comment:
I encounter this problem too. On PHP 4.3.2 on Debian Linux, compiled from source. Running on Apache 1.3.x strtotime seems to *randomly* return "1". More details: Our (in-house) accounting application uses strtotime on MSSQL-returned data. Upon upgrading to 4.3.2, we noticed that there are random (about 10-20%) instances where strtotime just returns 1. It cannot be the data problem cause it is not consistent on the same data set. Have just switched back to my backup of PHP 4.3.0's libphp4.so and everything is ok again. Both modules are compiled with the same configure command. './configure' '--with-apxs=/usr/share/apache/bin/apxs' '--with-regex=php' '--with-config-file-path=/etc/php4/apache' '--with-sybase=/usr/share/freetds' '--with-zlib' '--with-gd=/usr' '--with-jpeg-dir=/usr' '--with-png-dir=/usr' '--with-zlib-dir=/usr' '--with-freetype-dir=/usr' Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-08-16 00:56:55] [EMAIL PROTECTED] No feedback was provided.

For more information see: http://webexhibits.org/daylightsaving/b.html Instead of using mktime/date consider using gmmktime and gmdate which do not suffer from DST. . ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-03-21 08:39:09] dizit at mail dot ru <? echo 'Dates 2003-03-29 and 2003-03-30 to timestamp:<br>'.strtotime('2003-03-29').'<br>'.strtotime('2003-03-30'); echo '<br>and then back with date function:<p>'.date('Ymd',strtotime('20030329')).'<br>'.date('Ymd',strtotime('20030330')).'<-There is an error.
