Set PHP Timezone — Amorphous Web Solutions

The latest releases (5.3.x) of PHP require you to set the timezone and will otherwise throw an error if not set. This can be done one of two ways:

Via php.ini file (takes care of entire site)

date.timezone = "America/New_York"

NOTE: For sites on media temple, create a new php.ini file in /home/xxxxx/etc/ and enter the above.

The second way is via the .htaccess file on a directory-by-directory basis:

php_value date.timezone "America/New_York"

{ Set PHP Timezone }
