DateTime is not a function  but the class   When you just reference a class like new DateTime   PHP searches for the class in your current namespace  However the DateTime class obviously doesn t exists in your controllers namespace but rather in root namespace   You can either reference it in the root namespace by prepending a backslash    now   new  DateTime      Or add an import statement at the top   use DateTime    now   new DateTime
