I suspect it's your time-zone mod that's exposing this issue.

And, ya - it's a code issue ... but only insomuch as "code" is exposing a server configuration issue. Don't let them pin it on you.

Sounds like they had more than just a "database" problem. Perhaps they even changed their PHP configuration or even upgraded/re-installed it while fixing other problems ... and forgot about their safe-mode configuration limitations.

This is the issue you should be telling them they need to resolve:

putenv(): Safe Mode warning: Cannot set environment variable 'TZ' - it's not in the allowed list

Suggested approaches:
- get them to turn safe mode OFF -- most hosts do *NOT* need to run PHP in safe mode unless they've got a weak security setup
- get them to fix their "allowed list" of environment variables you're allowed to set
- or maybe get them to go back to their earlier configuration ... if they can remember what it was.
- or you can remove the time-zone-offset mod from your site.
