When I run this php file from command line, it is working fine. But running in through the browser, it is not working.
I’m running this on a local virtual Vagrant machine. Running Ubuntu Xenial 16.04 LTS x64.
<?php
$sd = setlocale(LC_TIME, 'nl_NL');
var_dump($sd);
echo strftime("%A");
output:
$ php test.php /var/www/domain/test.php:3: string(5) "nl_NL" woensdag
Running the same file in te browser:
/var/www/domain/test.php:3:boolean false Wednesday
I don’t understand why this is happening. I’ve installed the locale.
$ locale -a C C.UTF-8 dutch en_AG en_AG.utf8 en_AU.utf8 en_BW.utf8 en_CA.utf8 en_DK.utf8 en_GB.utf8 en_HK.utf8 en_IE.utf8 en_IN en_IN.utf8 en_NG en_NG.utf8 en_NZ.utf8 en_PH.utf8 en_SG.utf8 en_US en_US.iso88591 en_US.utf8 en_ZA.utf8 en_ZM en_ZM.utf8 en_ZW.utf8 nl_NL nl_NL.iso88591 nl_NL.utf8 POSIX

Answer
After you install new locales you need to restart PHP for the new locales to work. So try restarting PHP.
