PHP Error

[janu]

I need help to solve PHP error


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.

I tried to put this code into my index.php .. but no luck


if( ! ini_get('date.timezone') )
{
date_default_timezone_set('GMT');
}

do I need to alter php.ini

Your ini file would be the preferred place to set a timezone, but setting it at runtime should work also (assuming you do so before using any date/time functions). What do you mean by "no luck"? are you still getting the same error?

Here is a list of available timezones if that helps: http://www.php.net/manual/en/timezones.php

Normally if you Google the error along with the name if the script, you'll find answers/solutions.

( etc. )

Unfortunately, there is no easy solution for this. What's happening is that your version of VBulletin was written for an earlier version of PHP, which handled objects differently than current versions. Basically, every line of code that looks something like this:
$something =& new Something();…should look like this instead:
$something = new Something();I would not recommend implementing this fix yourself unless a) you are comfortable doing so, and b) you make a complete backup first.

Your google searching may turn up suggestions to change PHP's error reporting level. This is Not A Solution®: it's just a way of ignoring the problem.

All things considered, the best solution would be to visit the VB site and find out if there is a more recent release that fixes this problem. If not, file a bug report.
