设置了date.timezone，为什么PHP仍然显示UTC时间？

Question

I've set date.timezone=Australia/Melbourne in my php.ini file. However, I am getting back UTC times. Details as follows.

As per phpinfo, I edited Loaded Configuration File: /etc/php.ini

I've set:

date.timezone = Australia/Melbourne

Also tried "Australia/Melbourne"

date.timezone isn't in any of the files in this directory:

/etc/php-7.3.d

I'm running NGINX and php-fpm I've tried restarting multiple times.

service php-fpm restart

Here is some simple test code:

echo date_default_timezone_get() . "<br/>";
echo ini_get('date.timezone') . "<br/>";
$date = date('m/d/Y h:i:s a', time());
echo $date;

On another machine with similar setup I get the LOCAL time:

Australia/Melbourne
Australia/Melbourne
05/02/2019 07:05:05 pm

Whereas, on the problem server I get UTC time:

Australia/Melbourne
Australia/Melbourne
05/02/2019 09:05:05 am

Linux says the date time on the problem instance is:

Thu May  2 19:05:00 AEST 2019

Any suggestions?

Thanks brettsh

Answer 1

Yes, the file I edited (/etc/php.ini) was determined by "Loaded Configuration File" value in phpinfo.php. That's actually a softlink to /etc/php-7.3.ini however, I am editing the correct file.

I'm certain "Australia/Melbourne" is a valid timezone.

I've since tried:

export TZ='Australia/Melbourne'

adding the following to www.conf

php_admin_value[date.timezone] = Australia/Melbourne

Searched to see if date.timezone set differently elsewhere:

grep -rn "date.timezone" /etc/

Searched for UTC:

grep -rn "UTC" /etc/

Even tried this

date_default_timezone_set('Australia/Melbourne');

Answer 2

Turns out it was an issue with that version of PHP.

All I needed to do was upgrade from PHP 7.3.2 to 7.3.4.

I'm running AWS Linux so, I just ran this:

yum update
