How to fix warning from date() in PHP" [duplicate]

Answer 1

You could also use this:

ini_alter('date.timezone','Asia/Calcutta');

You should call this before calling any date function. It accepts the key as the first parameter to alter PHP settings during runtime and the second parameter is the value.

I had done these things before I figured out this:

1. Changed the PHP.timezone to "Asia/Calcutta" - but did not work
2. Changed the lat and long parameters in the ini - did not work
3. Used date_default_timezone_set("Asia/Calcutta"); - did not work
4. Used ini_alter() - IT WORKED
5. Commented date_default_timezone_set("Asia/Calcutta"); - IT WORKED
6. Reverted the changes made to the PHP.ini - IT WORKED

For me the init_alter() method got it all working.

I am running Apache 2 (pre-installed), PHP 5.3 on OSX mountain lion

Answer 2

error_reporting(E_ALL ^ E_WARNING);

You should change subject to "How to fix warning from date() in PHP"...

Answer 3

You need to set the default timezone smth like this :

date_default_timezone_set('Europe/Bucharest');

More info about this in http://php.net/manual/en/function.date-default-timezone-set.php

Or you could use @ in front of date to suppress the warning however as the warning states it's not safe to rely on the servers default timezone

Answer 4

This just happen to me because in the php.ini the date.timezone was not set!

;date.timezone=Europe/Berlin

Using the php date() function triggered that warning.

Answer 5

Try to set date.timezone in php.ini file. Or you can manually set it using ini_set() or date_default_timezone_set().
