PHP 5.3.0 Compatibility

[eluser]hvalente13[/eluser]
Hi guys,

I made php 5.3 upgrade and became with several warnings and errors, but surfing here on the CI foruns and SVN repo I am able to fix most of them. But I'm getting one that can't deal with:

Code:

A PHP Error was encountered

Severity: Warning

Message: 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 'Europe/London' for '1.0/DST' instead

Filename: helpers/date_helper.php

Line Number: 94

Please help.

Best Regards

I solved this issue by hammering the date_helper.php

In function mdate()

Code:

$CI =& get_instance();
date_default_timezone_set($CI->config->item('timezone'));

In application/config/config.php

Code:

$config['timezone'] = 'Europe/Lisbon';

I now that's NOT how to do it, but I'm in a hurry. I'll wait for a better solution.

Best Regards

The correct way to solve this is to add the date.timezone directive to your php.ini file.

Thank you Derek,

The correct way to solve this is to add the date.timezone directive to your php.ini file.

That's useful.

I think that will be a common setup item when any webhosting company upgrades php version, am I right?

Because I can access my php.ini, but in shared hosting I can't.

Thank you once more.

Best Regards

Yep, a professionally managed hosting environment running PHP 5.3 should have that set for their servers.

Is there an easy way to download the entire SVN, or do I have to save each page as a file?

If you have SVN (and otionally a GUI client like TortoiseSVN) you can give it the trunk URL and checkout the entire thing in one go (as well as seeing the change log, om mit history etc)

I have tried checkout & filled in URL of SVN, but it is VERY slow... (+- 10kb/sec). After one night of downloading it stated "600mb downloaded" but in the folder i don't see a damn thing?
I use tortoisesvn. At this time i have opened the logs, but after 5 minutes no revision logs are shown. What am i doing wrong...?
