Forum Archive - time zone warning

Hello, I get this warning when selecting other languages on site. Warning: date() [function.date]: 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 'UTC' for 'GMT/0.0/no DST' instead in /var/www/vhosts/domain.com/httpdocs/gtranslate/translate.php on line 421 Is there any solution. I get that even when error display is set to none.

It is your PHP configuration. If you google the error you get you will find a solution.

There was a reason I didn't do that in the first place, but I agree we need a fallback setting now. I can't believe PHP is yelling about this, but anyway... One change is needed, I have to make it: <?php if (function_exists('date_default_timezone_set')) { date_default_timezone_set(date_default_timezone_name()); } ?> Because in Drupal 6 we still support PHP4, where that function does not exist. We won't need that test in Drupal 7.

If you have access to php.ini file you can set a correct timezone there otherwise you can solve that issue with your hosting provider.
