# invalid date 报错与时区的关系 ## 背景 最近在验题的时候，@HarryChen 发现了一个现象： ```shell $ date -d "1919-04-13" date: invalid date ‘1919-04-13’ $ TZ=UTC date -d "1919-04-13" Sun Apr 13 00:00:00 UTC 1919 ``` 也就是说，这个现象与时区有关，那么为啥 `1919-04-13` 是一个不合法的日期呢？ ## 时区 实际上，对于某一个时区来说，有的时间是不存在的，最常见的就是夏令时。在 [Timezone DB](https://timezonedb.com/time-zones/Asia/Shanghai) 里可以看到，恰好在 1919 年 4 月 13 日发生了一次 UTC+8 到 UTC+9 的变化，因此零点变成了一点，就变成了不合法的日期。 这个数据，实际上保存在 tzdata 中，可以用 zdump 工具查看： ```shell $ tzdata -v Asia/Shanghai Asia/Shanghai Fri Dec 13 20:45:52 1901 UTC = Sat Dec 14 04:45:52 1901 CST isdst=0 Asia/Shanghai Sat
