Here a weird one. I just upgrade to php 5.3.0 and since the upgrade I'm getting the following warning:
Warning: getdate() [function.getdate]: It is not safe to rely on the system's timezone settings. You are required to use the date.timezone setting or the date_default_timezone_set() function. In case you used any of those methods and you are still getting this warning, you most likely misspelled the timezone identifier. We selected 'America/Chicago' for 'CST/-6.0/no DST'
After looking in various forums, everybody says that to solve the problem, all you have to do is edit the date zone in the php.ini and restart Apache.
It did not work for me.
I tried
date.timezone="America/New_York" date.timezone=America/New_York date.timezone="US/Central"
Restarted apache after I made the change.
Since I still have the older version of php install, I even made sure that I'm editing the php.ini that the current version of php uses at the time to load
/usr/local/php5/lib/php.ini
Still getting the warning.
Any suggestions?
Thanks for taking the time.
Tchalvak, who commented on the original question, hit the nail on the head for me. I've been editing (I use Debian):
/etc/php5/apache2/php.ini
...which had the correct timezone for me and was the only .ini file being loaded with date.timezone within it, but I was receiving the above error when I ran a script through Bash. I had no idea that I should have been editing:
/etc/php5/cli/php.ini
as well. (Well, for me it was 'as well', for you it might be different of course, but I'm going to keep my Apache and CLI versions of php.ini synchronised now).
