hi, I am getting the following error when trying to checkout of my shopping cart. Warning: date(): 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 /home/qawebhos/public_html/offer/cwhoiscart.php on line 2558 I have googled a solution and they all pretty much say do the same thing, add the folllowing to php.ini [Date] ; Defines the default timezone used by the date functions ; [url=http://php.net/date.timezone]PHP: Runtime Configuration - Manual date.timezone = America/New_York or a variation on that theme. I have done that - in roots php.ini and the accounts php.ini and it made no difference. I emailed the support guy at the cart I use and he said add it to file that comes with the cart and I did - no difference. Any help anyone could offer would be most welcomed. Thanks in advance, Phil.

  Hello :) Do you have root access to this server? If so, please post the output from: grep date.timezone /usr/local/lib/php.ini
  Also, which PHP handler are you using (e.g. suPHP, DSO)? Thank you.

  Try disabling the php.ini files within the account. Ensure you check within the account's root directory, the public_html directory, and any subdirectories that include content from this script. You can disable them by simply renaming them. Thank you.

  Brilliant - sorted. Thank you so much. As you can imagine it could probably have affected sales - you made a very important catch. It is greatly appreciated. Great work. All the best Phil.
