how can I remove this error.

Answer 1

When you look at lib\Zend\Locale\Format.php

in

   private static function _parseDate($date, $options)
        {
..........
 // split number parts
    $split = false;
    preg_match_all('/\d+/u', $number, $splitted);

    if (count($splitted[0]) == 0) {
        iconv_set_encoding('internal_encoding', $oenc);
        #require_once 'Zend/Locale/Exception.php';
        throw new Zend_Locale_Exception("No date part in '$date' found."); // your error comes from here 

    }

}

I think After little bit debugging found that pcre_match_all function is failing to find any matches.

i think this pcre_match_all function is receiving non-utf8 encoded text, and with the /u option the regular expression fails to parse the string correctly.

I would suggest just debug this code and try to find solution
