date.timezone

It means exactly what it says.
Your server's PHP configuration doesn't have date.timezone set properly.
You, or your hosting company, need to correct that. Contact them for help with fixing their configuration problem.

Hi

I have the same problem and my hosting company 1and1 say there is no php.ini file to configure???!!!!

Where would the php.ini file be located?

Many thanks!

I am having the same issue. My problem is not fixed even though I modified php.ini. In fact it seems like timezone is set properly because I can see default time zone is set, if I do phpinfo();


I have been working on this for a bit of time, but I haven't been able to install zen-cart yet. Does anyone have any idea?

Hi

I can't find php.ini to modify. . . .

Can you let me know where to find it????

My hosting company 1and1 say thre is no php.ini file in my catalog folder!!!

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');

Hi!

What do you mean add the line on the top?

Thanks!

Talk to your hosting company and ask them to tell you which method they prefer you to use: either php.ini or .htaccess ... and ask them for specific instructions on how to do that for YOUR site.

Thanks!

note - I am replicating my "real world" cart to be able to customize a template on an installation on my own computer.
