errors after upgrade

[Big Country]

pops up over & over

Warning: date() [function.date]: It is not safe to rely on the system's timezone settings. Please use the date.timezone setting, the TZ environment variable or the date_default_timezone_set() function. In case you used any of those methods and you are still getting this warning, you most likely misspelled the timezone identifier. We selected 'America/Chicago' for 'CST/-6.0/no DST' instead in ..../includes/functions.php on line 4912

This is a server configuration issue and should be set at the server level in the php.ini file. However you can override the issue by setting a locale in your config.php file.

See: http://php.net/manual/en/function.da...mezone-set.php (http://php.net/manual/en/function.date-default-timezone-set.php)

You would use something like:

date_default_timezone_set ('America/Los_Angeles');

You can find all timezones here: http://www.php.net/manual/en/timezones.php

Really should be set in the php.ini file in this section of code:
[Date]
; Defines the default timezone used by the date functions
; http://php.net/date.timezone
date.timezone = "America/Los_Angeles"

; http://php.net/date.default-latitude
date.default_latitude = 34.3981

; http://php.net/date.default-longitude
date.default_longitude = 118.1358

; http://php.net/date.sunrise-zenith
;date.sunrise_zenith = 90.583333

; http://php.net/date.sunset-zenith
;date.sunset_zenith = 90.583333Turning display errors off would also eliminate the problem. They aren't errors, simply warnings. They are due to how PHP has changed over the years. Previous to vBulletin 4.2.2, they were suppressed because vBulletin didn't know how to deal with them.

where would I turn display errors off? tried finding that section of code in the INIT.PHP.

no go, only found
// Force PHP 5.3.0+ to take time zone information from OS
if (version_compare(phpversion(), '5.3.0', '>='))
{
@date_default_timezone_set('America/Los_Angeles');
rest of the code was not there. this is in the includes folder.

[ForceHSS]

You put the fix at the bottom of the php.ini making it a new line

[Big Country]

still getting errors

You need to put the fix in the php.ini not in init.php file

added

define('SKIP_ALL_ERRORS', true);

----------------------
<?php
define('SKIP_ALL_ERRORS', true);

in the config.PHP

[ForceHSS]

If you put what i gave you into the config it will remove the errors. Have you tired renaming the first part of the php.ini to America/Chicago

giving that a crack later, got a sick wife home right now, THANKS for your help :)

[ForceHSS]

What u have in ur config will do for now it stops the errors from showing. I know its not a fix more like a mask but better than nothing at least it will give you the time to find the right settings. You could put up a test server can tell u how to do this if u need tomorrow at a better time for us both.

Replace the define('SKIP_ALL_ERRORS', true); in your includes/config.php file with this, date_default_timezone_set ('America/Chicago');
