If you're having problems with the PHP configuration on your server, you should be talking to your hosting company for help.

hi yuto,

you can fix it by going to zc_install/includes/application_top.php and add following line on the top:

ini_set('date.timezone', 'America/Vancouver');

Thank you.
(Remember to restart your server to activate the new settings).

Thank you, thank you, thank you! This solved all my trobles.

It's much better to have your hosting company properly configure the server.
