Symfony2 and date default timezone get - It is not safe to rely on the system s timezone settings

Question

I have a Symfony2 project  I updated my php to 5 5 7 today and since then  I am getting the   Warning  date default timezone get    It is not safe to rely on the system s timezone settings  You are  required  to use the date timezone setting 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 the timezone  UTC  for now  but please set date timezone to select your timezone  in      I setup the default timezone in my php ini   Date    Defines the default timezone used by the date functions   http   php net date timezone date timezone    Europe Paris     To be sure that this is the good php ini  I was checking with   phpinfo      And the path I ma getting there is the one I am modifying     usr local php5 5 7 lib    But in there  I see the   Default timezone    UTC    Which is strange   any idea  Thank you

Maybe you are trying to set it in Apache s php ini  but your CLI  Command Line Interface  php ini is not good   Find your php ini file with the following command   php -i   grep php ini   And then search for date timezone and set it to  Europe Amsterdam   all valid timezone will be found here http   php net manual en timezones php  Another way  if the other does not work   search for the file AppKernel php  which should be under the folder app of your Symfony project directory  Overwrite the   construct function below in the class AppKernel    lt  php       class AppKernel extends Kernel          Other methods and variables          Append this init function below      public function   construct  environment   debug                date default timezone set   Europe Paris             parent    construct  environment   debug

Found a similar way to fix this issue  at least it did for me     First check where the CLI php ini is located   php -i   grep  php ini  In my case I ended up with   Configuration File  php ini  Path     etc Then cd    all the way back and cd into  etc  do ls in my case php ini didn t show up  only a php ini default Now  copy the php ini default file named as php ini   sudo cp php ini default php ini In order to edit  change the permissions of the file   sudo chmod ug w php ini  sudo chgrp staff php ini Open directory and edit the php ini file   open    Tip  If you are not able to edit the php ini due to some permissions issue then copy  php ini default  and paste it on your desktop and rename it to  php ini  then open it and edit it following step 7  Then move  copy paste  it in  etc folder  Issue will be resolved  Search for  Date  and make sure the following line is in the correct format    date timezone    Europe Amsterdam    I hope this could help you out

Since PHP 5 5  there is a separate php ini file for CLI interface  If You use symfony console from command line  then this specific php ini is used   In Ubuntu 13 10 check file       etc php5 cli php ini
