Lubridate: Timezones not working since the update to R 4.0.3
I updated R yesterday to version 4.0.3 and now my timezone codes are throwing an error in lubridate.
For example
a <- "1 Sep 2020 1:00pm" #make a string date
This works fine:
library(lubridate)
dmy_hm(a) # returns date as expected
But this doesn't work:
dmy_hm(a, tz="Africa/Blantyre") #this throws an error
I get the error
error in C_force_tz(time, tz = tzone, roll) :
CCTZ: Unrecognized output timezone: "Africa/Blantyre"
For what it's worth, some of the three letter time zone abbreviations seem to work
dmy_hm(a, tz="UTC") #works ok
dmy_hm(a, tz="CET") #works fine
dmy_hm(a, tz="EST") #works fine
But no other time zone specification works (have tried "Europe/London" and "Africa/Harare")
I've checked by system time zone
Sys.timezone() #returns "Africa/Blantyre" as expected
OlsonNames()#returns 594 timezone names (including "Africa/Blantyre" and everything else I expected)
I'm not sure what's throwing the issue or if it is specific to lubridate, or something else (?)

I don't see this with CRAN lubridate, on macOS:
β― a <- "1 Sep 2020 1:00pm" #make a string date
β― dmy_hm(a, tz="Africa/Blantyre") #this throws an error
[1] "2020-09-01 13:00:00 CAT"
β― getRversion()
[1] β4.0.3β
β― Sys.timezone()
[1] "Europe/London"
EDIT: this was on Mojave, possibly only an issue on Catalina?

I am on Catalina and also unable to repro.
Here was the change in R 4.0.3:
On platforms using configure option --with-internal-tzcode, additional values "internal" and (on macOS only) "macOS" are accepted for the environment variable TZDIR. (See ?TZDIR.)
On macOS, "macOS" is used by default if the system timezone database is a newer version than that in the R installation.
So my guess here is that the error occurs under certain configurations where the MacOS TZ database is corrupted or missing? From the TZDIR docs:
Where R was configured with option --with-internal-tzcode (the default on Windows: recommended on Solaris), the database at file.path(R.home("share"), "zoneinfo") is used by default: file βVERSIONβ in that directory states the version. That option is also the default on macOS but there whichever is more recent of the system database at β/var/db/timezone/zoneinfoβ and that distributed with R is used by default. Environment variable TZDIR can be used to point to a different βzoneinfoβ database: value "internal" indicates that the database from the R sources and "macOS" indicates the system database.
@rachaelmburke What is the value of Sys.getenv("TZDIR") on your system? What happens if you do Sys.setenv(TZDIR = "internal") before you run the code? What about with Sys.setenv(TZDIR = "macOS")?

The problem appears to occur if the TZDIR environment variable is set to either "internal" or "macOS". Here is the minimum reproducible example:
# Running on Mac OS X Catalina (10.15.5) under R 4.0.3 w/ timezone changes
Sys.getenv("TZDIR")
#> [1] ""
lubridate::dmy_hm("1 Sep 2020 1:00pm", tz="Africa/Blantyre")
#> [1] "2020-09-01 13:00:00 CAT"
# Now in a fresh R session:
Sys.setenv(TZDIR = "internal") # (also fails for "macOS")
lubridate::dmy_hm("1 Sep 2020 1:00pm", tz="Africa/Blantyre")
#> Error in C_force_tz(time, tz = tzone, roll): CCTZ: Unrecognized output timezone: "Africa/Blantyre"
Note that cctz requires that the TZDIR by a path not a special value like "internal": https://github.com/google/cctz/blob/742d370708addf54b79ca1b278198d90977d8a29/src/tzfile.h#L25

This bit me as well. I went as far as reinstalling macOS and R on my machine thinking there was something at the OS level that was wrong with my machine since a colleague using Windows 10 couldn't duplicate and it didn't happen on my other Mac. But with fresh installs of Catalina and R 4.0.3 both, this keeps occurring.

@adamhsparks Did you install R from CRAN or from HomeBrew? Can you try to set TZDIR = "" in your ~/.Renviron file?
gaborcsardi
on 1 Nov 2020
R was installed using the Homebrew cask version of R, not the Homebrew formulae.
adamhsparks
on 1 Nov 2020
I'm seeing this issue to on R4.0.3. R4.0.2 on the same system doesn't have this issue.
Note that if I run @jjallaire's reprex above I get an error but he doesn't on the same code. Also if I run Sys.getenv("TZDIR") after executing the lubridate statement you can see that the environment variable has been set to "macOS".

Setting TZDIR to internal doesn't seem to help either.

Full disclosure I am testing MacOS 11 on this system. Both 11.0.0 Beta 10 and 11.0.1 Beta 1 have this issue. @jjallaire I note you aren't on the latest Catalina which I think is 10.15.7. Perhaps something has changed in later macOS builds that causes things to break?
R is installed from CRAN.
Adding an explicity TZDIR = "" or TZDIR = "internal" to .Renviron results in the same output.
This does not occur on Windows or Ubuntu 20.04.
gsiemon
on 1 Nov 2020
I also tried setting TZDIR = "" in my .Renviron. Sys.getenv("TZDIR") still reports "macOS".
adamhsparks
on 1 Nov 2020
Another idea: can you try setting it as
TZDIR="/Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Resources/share/zoneinfo/"
in ~/.Renviron?
If it is still set to macOS after a restart, then you can try setting it in ~/.Rprofile:
Sys.setenv("TZDIR" = "/Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Resources/share/zoneinfo/")
@gaborcsardi Your suggestion to set TZDIR to "/Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Resources/share/zoneinfo/"
in .Renviron seems to work!

FWIW, I don't see this issue on Big Sur, fully updated according to the update manager, the R 4.0.3 installer from CRAN, and CRAN lubridate. TZDIR is not set by default here.
gaborcsardi
on 1 Nov 2020
Yes, confirming, setting TZDIR="/Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Resources/share/zoneinfo/" in .Renviron works for my own computer.
Now, what's the best method to deal with this error in a package that uses lubridate if it occurs on another user's machine?

I think this will be probably fixed in lubridate. Until then a workaround would be to wrap calls to lubridate, and in the wrapper set TZDIR to the fixed path (file.path(R.home(), "share", "zoneinfo")), and then reset TZDIR in on.exit(). This can be tedious, though. Also it might not work if people don't use the CRAN installer, but an R version that was configured without the internal time zone DB.
gaborcsardi
on 1 Nov 2020
Thank you, @gaborcsardi! I suspected it would be fixed in lubridate. We're not in a hurry to publish the package. I think that I can just keep an eye out for that fix and require that version and if need be implement what you have suggested here.
adamhsparks

Not sure whether I am on crack or what, but I reinstalled 4.0.3 on Oct, 21 and afaict everything was working great then.
Now that the winter timezone is upon us (in Europe/Zurich), I am starting having the issue as well! Could the two be linked? (This would also explain why the issue cropped up only three days ago)
Just a thought.
domq

I tried it again in the office today on my Mac there that also has Catalina and R4.0.3. No worries.
We don't do DST here in Qld, so no time change for me (at the beginning of October), but could still be related?
adamhsparks
on 2 Nov 2020
I would think that it is related macOS updates, and some versions of the macOS timezone DB are buggy. Actually, not really buggy, they are just more recent than the ones on other macOS versions/updates, and R decides to use them and sets TZDIR to a value that breaks lubridate/cctz.
FWIW these are my versions on Mojave, these work fine with R:
β― ls -l /var/db/timezone/

Yeah, small sample, but it seems that if zoneinfo links to a newer tz db, that will make R set TZDIR incorrectly.

I've just been back to my Timemachine backup and the timezone versions updated from 2020a.1.0 to 2020d.1.0 on October 27. I didn't install any updates then so I'm guessing this was pushed from Apple's end. That seems to reconcile others saying that R4.0.3 was working fine and then it suddenly stopped working.

Most of these just look like routine timezone updates. I'm happy to send through anything that piques your interest.
Edit: I've just reread your post @gaborcsardi. That makes a lot of sense. Newer TZ data causes switch from internal to macOS TZ data and somehow everything breaks.

Hi... so glad it's not just me!
Sorry to disrupt a "issue" / patch thread with what's now a support question.... but is there any chance someone could explain to me a work around that I can use in the mean time until this get fixed
I can't quite work out how to set or change anything in R.environ or .Rprofile to change TZDIR.
I'm on Catalina 10.15.4
I'm a doctor turned stats / epidemiology person. Learning more all the time about how my computer actually works, but definitely a newbie here. And I have a lot of code for an ongoing project that now doesn't work so well!
Thanks,

Maybe you installed R from Homebrew? It seems like homebrew builds R without the internal time zone DB, and if the system one fails, I am not sure what you can do.
Nevertheless, try file.path(R.home(), "share", "zoneinfo") and if that directory exists, then set TZDIR to that.
Otherwise you can maybe switch to the CRAN version of R, you can even install it with Homebrew:
brew cask install r
BINGO! there I was thinking using homebrew is being clever. Thanks!

I updated my MacOS yesterday to Catalina 10.15.7 and my R to the newest version 4.0.3 and hit the same issue with the CCTZ error. Downgrading back to R 4.0.2 from CRAN has solved it for me.

I've been using lubridate in R 4.0.3 without error every day including this morning, until a few hours ago when I updated to macOS Catalina 10.15.7 supplemental update, and now I get this Unrecognized output timezone error.

The change in R appears to have occurred here: https://github.com/wch/r-source/commit/92712b530e5f0f3c19b1e83ed86554bbfb6d9095.
I think that should provide the necessary info to reverse this change for lubridate. I _think_ it should be be safe for lubridate to just reset TZDIR on load, but it does make me feel a little nervous that we're changing an environment variable in a way that might affect other code (OTOH we're changing TZDIR back to a point to a directory so it seem like it should be safe)
hadley
on 7 Nov 2020
That change doesn't make sense to me. It blindly overwrites whatever TZDIR is set to. The coment just below that change implies that it could also affect tzcode and glibc which respect TZDIR
I have added a workaround but I think the issue should be investigated further and reported.
Would appreciate if people on mac could report back if the fix worked for them.

The update to Lubridate fixed the issue for me! My macOS is up to date and has no updates pending (see session info for details). I tried with a random selection of different time zones and they all worked.

Oddly, this went away but now it's back again.
Even more oddly, if I try to make a reprex, using reprex::reprex() it works properly in the resulting reprex, but I cannot make it work interactively.

@adamhsparks Try calling Sys.timezone() before loading the lubridate package. Does that help?

Perhaps as an additional datapoint, this bug is inconsistent across different timezones for me:
> lubridate::dmy_hm("1 Sep 2020 1:00pm", tz="Africa/Blantyre")
[1] "2020-09-01 13:00:00 CAT"
> lubridate::dmy_hm("1 Sep 2020 1:00pm", tz="Europe/London")
[1] "2020-09-01 13:00:00 BST"
> lubridate::dmy_hm("1 Sep 2020 1:00pm", tz="Europe/Berlin")
Error in C_force_tz(time, tz = tzone, roll) :
CCTZ: Unrecognized output timezone: "Europe/Berlin"
Some TZs work, while others don't, with no apparent pattern.

Hi everyone,
Just wanted to let you know that this bug appeared after a mac update for me, not an R update, in case that helps you with your troubleshooting. (Using R 4.0.3) The mac update was a security update that took me to Catalina 10.15.7. I solved it with the Sys.setenv("TZDIR" = "/Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Resources/share/zoneinfo/") command that @gaborcsardi suggested.
Thanks!

Since feedback was asked-for, I can report that the most recent commit (aab2e30) does not resolve the issue for me 'out-of-the-box'.
R 4.0.3, Mac OS 10.15.7.
And when I try the explicit TZDIR setting I can resolve it, but it requires knowing the explicit path (which required a manual search through /usr/local). Since I used brew as the installation mechanism (which perhaps was a poor choice?), on my machine this solves the
Sys.setenv("TZDIR" = "/usr/local/Cellar/r/4.0.3_2/lib/R/share/zoneinfo/")
Though I'm not sure how to easily detect that path a priori.

@mmuurr what does file.exists(file.path(R.home("share"), "zoneinfo")) return?

@hadley
file.exists(file.path(R.home("share"), "zoneinfo"))
# [1] TRUE
... but also I'm starting to question my sanity as I'm getting errors/warnings in different projects, but with all the same package versions installed. So apologies in advance for the long post here, but I'm hoping this helps track down some of the inconsistencies various people have observed.
Below are four cases:
- a script run within an renv-ed project,
- within RStudio
- outside of RStudio
- the same script run in a non-renv directory (i.e. using system/site libraries only)
- within RStudio
- outside of Rstudio
In all cases:
- There is no user-level
.Renvironfile overriding the system defaults. - The
.Rprofilefile for the renv case includes only thesource("renv/activate.R")directive; and in the no-renv case there is no.Rprofilefile being used. - No other R-related environment variables are being set by the default shell (though RStudio may(?) be doing some of that for those cases).
An renv project
Within RStudio
For starters, my reprex in RStudio (IDE) is failing to produce the same warning that appears in the RStudio console when executing the exact same script by hand :-/.
Here's a reprex::reprex()-ed script _without_ any TZ warning/error:
.libPaths()

Note that:
- this project happens to be
renv-ed Sys.getenv("TZDIR")yields "macOS"lubridate::now()has no error or warning.
Now, immediately after running that script, at the RStudio console I try lubridate::now(), I get:
lubridate::now()

# Warning message:

- The TZ warning is present.
Sys.getenv("TZDIR")now yields""(instead of"macOS"when run in RStudio).- Fewer packages are loaded, but of those that are loaded, the versions are all identical between the Rstudio and non-Rstudio cases.
- The R version is identical (4.0.3).
Non-renv
Within RStudio & Outside of RStudio
To save some space, I've just combined the results of the non-renv case, as the only difference in the within-RStudio and outside-of-RStudio scenarios is the list of loaded packages, but in both cases there are no TZ warnings/errors.
reprex::reprex() output from within RStudio (for comparison to the above scenarios):

And if I run lubridate::now() at the console (both within- and outside-of- RStudio), no warning.
I realize all of that is quite long but I figured 'err on the side of verbosity' in an effort to provide any/all helpful clues :-/
Cheers!

@mmuurr since your problem seems a bit different can you please file a new issue?

Try calling Sys.timezone() before loading the lubridate package. Does that help?
@LeeMendelowitz
This helped me. Just had this issue recently and I don't remember what changed in my system except i did update packages. Not sure if Lubridate was one of them but if I reset the R environment and first run Sys.timezone that seems to do the trick.

Per NEWS bullet https://github.com/tidyverse/lubridate/blob/master/NEWS.md#version-1792, It seems that this issue is fixed now right ?
As it is not closed, just want to confirm.

Yes, it should be fixed in devel. Will try to release to CRAN next week.

Oh ok, The NEWS item was for 1.7.9.2 so I thought it was already fixed in the CRAN version. So it isn't ?

@vspinu I understood what you meant I think.
This has been fully fixed in https://github.com/tidyverse/lubridate/pull/936 after first try in 4c8428b7b3bd30c8789340381ebd9f455308dc27 it it seems but I don't think the commit for the PR (6c535c82ed7f263ce5daceba9c87827400d4423e) made the last CRAN release 1.7.9.2 - the date is after the published date on CRAN, and I don't see the change in lubridate:::.onLoad.
Unfortunately, 6c535c82ed7f263ce5daceba9c87827400d4423e shows that it is included in the tag of 1.7.9.2 - I was mislead by this I think.
I reverted back the change in distill to use CRAN lubridate and wait for the next version you said you will release soon hopefully.
Thank you.

Sorry. It was a messup with tagging on my side this time :/ I am preparing a CRAN release.

Another idea: can you try setting it as
in
~/.Renviron?If it is still set to
macOSafter a restart, then you can try setting it in~/.Rprofile:
