Description:
------------
On top of my script I inserted setlocale(LC_ALL, 'nld_NLD'); Sometimes it displays the local date using strftime and sometimes the english date. I cannot find any patern, it seems to happen randomly.

Reproduce code:
---------------
setlocale(LC_ALL, 'nld_NLD');
echo strftime('%A %d %B %Y om %H:%M', date());

Expected result:
----------------
donderdag 08 maart 2007 om 08:25

Actual result:
--------------
Thursday 08 March 2007 om 08:25

If you're using ISAPI, note that setlocale() is not thread safe.

I am using Apache 2 not IIS..

Ok, but mpm_winnt is still multithreaded, only way to avoid is using (f)cgi on Windows.

I don't understand your last comment. What is the easyest solution for this problem?

Still waiting for reaction.

setlocale() is not threadsafe and you're using threaded API.
This is documented and expected.
