As typed, the code is bogus.  First, the variable 'time' will conflict
with the system call, probably giving link errors.  Since you don't
show us how 'time' was initialized, we can't help you much more, but
it seems very likely that either it was never initialized, or done
incorrectly.

Something more like this is what you want:
	time_t t;
	time(&t); (or t = time(NULL);)
	buf = ctime(&t);
