Xampp Timezone error

[Mod-Jay]

I have a Xampp Timezone Error

 

Error

Warning: strtotime() [function.strtotime]: 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 'America/New_York' for '-5.0/no DST' instead in C:\Users\cory j\Desktop\xampp\htdocs\NoXIp\Toplist\inc\vote.php on line 56
You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near ' NOW())' at line 1

 

Line 56

              $diffrence = time() - strtotime($getDate['lastVoteDate']);

 

The Date Function in Php.ini

[Date]
; Defines the default timezone used by the date functions
; http://php.net/date.timezone
date.timezone = "America/New_York"
date.timezone = "America/New_York"
; http://php.net/date.default-latitude
;date.default_latitude = 31.7667

; http://php.net/date.default-longitude

potentially important part of that notice:

 

We selected 'America/New_York' for '-5.0/no DST' instead in C:\Users\cory j\Desktop\xampp\htdocs\NoXIp\Toplist\inc\vote.php on line 56

 

what's on line 56 of vote.php?

Either Apache wasn't restarted, or you edited the wrong copy of php.ini, most likely. And why is date.timezone in there twice?

Are you blind? it says it right there Line 56

[BlueSkyIS]

so line 56 of vote.php says "Line 56"?

 

Well, there's your problem right there.

 

But perhaps I'm not the blind one. the error is telling you straight out that the problem is the use of -5.0/no DST on line 56 of vote.php.

[Mod-Jay]

so line 56 of vote.php says "Line 56"?

Wow, You really are blind.

 

Line 56 on Vote.php

              $diffrence = time() - strtotime($getDate['lastVoteDate']);

Yup.. i agree, i wouldn't want to help myself either. I have restarted Apache and it show the same error, Anymore help? Please

[Pikachu2000]

Check the results of phpinfo() to make sure you edited the php.ini file that shows up as the 'Loaded Configuration File'.

[Mod-Jay]

I did

[Pikachu2000]

See what you get from:

echo date_default_timezone_get()

Error

You can put it at the top of the script that's giving you problems, or create a new script and paste it in.

got a(n) Error

[Pikachu2000]

And that error would be what, exactly?

[Mod-Jay]

Posted it above

[Pikachu2000]

Something isn't adding up here. Have you searched your php.ini file to see if there's a line in it that contains -5.0/no DST?

 

Paste this at the top of the script and see if the error disappears. If it does, either that value in php.ini is being overwritten later in the file, or that php.ini file is not the one being used by php.

date_default_timezone_set("America/New_York");

There was no line but i search it with windows 7 and 5 other files came up. i placed that in the php.ini spot where it should go and it still isnt working. i have team viewer if you want to look for yourself

[Pikachu2000]

The line above should go in the script that is generating the error, not in php.ini.
