[Not a bug] Safe Mode warning

[bruce429]

Was getting a debug error like: "Safe Mode warning: Cannot set environment variable 'TZ' - it's not in the allowed list in . ."
In /includes/extra_configures/set_time_zone.php
Replaced:
if ($TZ != '') {
putenv('TZ=' . $TZ);
@date_default_timezone_set($TZ);
}

with:
if ($TZ != "") {
//for >= PHP 5.1
if(function_exists("date_default_timezone_set")) {
date_default_timezone_set($TZ);
// for PHP < 5.1
} else {
putenv("TZ=" . stripslashes($TZ));
}
}

Seems to work.

That is not a bug.

Zen Cart v1.5.3 is designed to work on PHP 5.2.10 or higher.
Using an older PHP version will probably cause your store to encounter technical problems and ongoing PHP errors.

PHP 5.2.10 eh? Look's like it's running 5.3.28.



Hmmm, I just put the original code back and it started to get the debug errors again. I will now put my updated code back in.

Can't replicate your situation on my PHP 5.3.28 using ZC v1.5.3

If I changed TZ to PHP_TZ, it worked.

Crapy hosting like one.com will give this issue. Move to a decent one instead, as this is only one of many issues they will cause. ;)
