$timeStr='1987-5-4';
echo '测试时间：'.$timeStr;
echo PHP_EOL;
$prcTime=strtotime($timeStr);
echo 'PRC时间:';
echo $prcTime;
echo PHP_EOL;
date_default_timezone_set('UTC');
$utcTime=strtotime($timeStr);
echo 'UTC时间：';
echo $utcTime;
echo PHP_EOL;
echo 'UTC与PRC时间相差：'.(($utcTime-$prcTime)/3600).'小时';
echo PHP_EOL;

Result:

Test time: 1987-5-4

PRC time:547052400

UTC time: 547084800

UTC and PRC time Difference: 9 hours

After testing, the difference between UTC and PRC time for dates from 1987 to 1991 is 9 hours.

The php version is

PHP 7.1.9 (cli) (built: Aug 30 2017 18:34:46) (ZTS MSVC14 (Visual C 2015) x64)

Forgot to ask the question, what is the reason for this? How to deal with this bug?

reply We are in the East Eighth District, and the PHP time starts from District 0, so there will be a difference of eight hours (PS: I didn’t learn geography well in junior high school). The solution: 1. Modify PHP configuration file 2. Use date_default_timezone_set

reply Well, there is a difference of 8 hours, but here is the difference between PRC East Eighth District and UTC, which is 9 hours, and it is only part of the year (1987-1991).

reply I also encountered this problem two days ago, and after discussing it in the group, I roughly concluded that it was caused by daylight saving time.
