I started a site on one server with PHP 5.2.8; installed and configured a site them moved it to a production Server with PHP 5.1.6.

Both use MySQL 5.0.77.

The production site only displays the current date in any date cck date field. In a view or by itself. If you edit the record the edit screen correctly shows the date you set. The database contains the right value.

I've tried to change the type of the cck date filed (date, datestamp, datetime). I've tried clearing caches and remaking the fields but to no avail. All displays of the date field show today.

Core Drupal Systems that show the date do so correctly (such as time stamps on errors).

Does anyone have an idea of why this is?

Replacing 6.x-2.7 with 6.x-2.7-dev appears to fix the problem.

Replacing the module with th dev version solved the date problem but not the time problem, the minutes are correctly saved but incorreclty shown. I'm not sure if it's the minutes of the server time that are displaying.
any help apreciated!!

Component: Date CCK Field » Code

#5, #9 and #10 all talk about 6.x-2.7-dev, but I don't see the "dev" version available for download anywhere. The straight 6.x-2.7 version displays the same problem as described, i.e. correct date stored on database but today's date displayed. I read somewhere else this was because of my version of PHP. My ISP only provides PHP 5.1.6, which 6.x-2.7 seems not to work with.

Unfortunately, ISP won't let me update PHP, so I'm using Date 6.x-2.4 (together with Calendar 6.x-2.4). However, Date 6.x-2.4 also pulls the same trick: selected date stored; today's date displayed. Any clues, please?

Thanks in advance.

@willshaman:
"dev" version can be downloaded right from the project page at http://drupal.org/project/date
dev version

Also, according to our info on the project page: "PHP 4, 5.0, & 5.1 are no longer actively supported. If you want dates to work correctly you need to use PHP 5.2 or higher."
If your web host provider cannot/will not update PHP, I would suggest looking for a new provider.

@jitenm (#13):
Let's leave this issue closed for the 6.x-2.x version of date. If you are having this issue in 7.x-2.x, please create another issue and detail how the problem can be reproduced there.
Include your PHP version.
