Hey there,

today I set up my second (first was at Windows enviroment) up, but after hours of failuresearch I gave up, so I'm asking you here.

I have updated PHP with all extensions (I think^^), but I get this error everytime:

Code: Select all

PHP Fatal error:  Uncaught exception 'ErrorException' with message '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/Berlin' for 'CET/1.0/no DST' instead' in /home/trackmania/manialive/ManiaLive/libraries/ManiaLive/Application/ErrorHandling.php:114
Stack trace:

my linux timezone is also right.
Do you have any ideas how to solve this problem?

Thanks in advance,
Paddy

Try This in you're php.ini (/etc/php5/cli)

Code: Select all

[Date]
; Defines the default timezone used by the date functions
; http://php.net/date.timezone
date.timezone = "Europe/Berlin"

; http://php.net/date.default-latitude
;date.default_latitude = 31.7667

; http://php.net/date.default-longitude
;date.default_longitude = 35.2333

; http://php.net/date.sunrise-zenith
;date.sunrise_zenith = 90.583333

; http://php.net/date.sunset-zenith
;date.sunset_zenith = 90.583333

Shouldn't of even bothered answering.. The cause is directly cited in the error, even stating how to fix it..

All kidding aside, though.. It's certainly bad coding practice by the ML team to leave this function open to error (and a fatal error at that) in the case of using default php configs (afterall, there are a good many users with no access to their php config). It'd be much better to fetch the timezone setting first from the config, and if it's not set then simply use the date_default_timezone_get function to retrieve the timezone settings from the system (and possibly a small warning message advising the operator to set the value in their config). Hopefully it's just a small embarrassing oversight, which will be fixed in the near future.
