Not a bug, you need to set it to one of the constants you find on the following documentation page. This behavior changed in PHP 5.1: http://www.php.net/manual/en/timezones.america.php Even better would to not use the TZ env var, but isntead use the date.timezone setting in php.ini to the correct Timezone Identifier.

Setting TZ to something like EST5EDT CST6CDT, PST8PDT etc does work. Reproduce code: --------------- <? $date = date("h:i:s", time()); echo "Date: $date"; ?> Expected result: ---------------- I expect to see the correct time accounting for my time zone. Actual result: -------------- It was actually 09:52:28 AM and the date was printed as the following PM Date: 02:52:28 PHP Notice: date(): Timezone setting (date.timezone) or TZ environment variable contains an unknown timezone. in E:\tz.php on line 2 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=34859&edit=1
