Odd error in logs related to /lib/smarty/Smarty_Compiler.class.php and date.time

[Thu Jul 15 07:22:14 2010] [error] PHP Strict Standards:  strftime() [<a href='function.strftime'>function.strftime</a>]: 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/New_York' for 'EDT/-4.0/DST' instead in .../lib/smarty/Smarty_Compiler.class.php on line 400

I'm not entirely sure this is a cmsms issue, but I'm getting a lot of this error in my logs. Anyone know offhand if this is a cmsms issue, or a misconfiguration of some kind with the date on my server? Hitting date from the command line appears to give the appropriate time, date, and timezone for my location. Only reason I bring it up is that the error is always triggered (on my server any way) by the Smarty_Compiler.class.php in cmsms.

Using 1.8.1 cmsms
php 5.2.13
apache 2.x
mysql 5.x

Thanks,

You are right.. it's not really a cmsms issue.. thou the common issue I see on host is that the timezone identifier needs a single qoute around the zone.. just as it suggests.  "  'America/New_York'  "

hope that helps.. Cheers -Jeremy

I am getting this same type of error on my Fe-useres login page. Displayed to the user no less.

Using:  CMS Made Simple 1.8.1

Strict Standards: strftime() [function.strftime]: 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/Denver' for 'MST/-7.0/no DST' instead in /home/content/m/m/a/mmains/html/CMS-MMA/lib/smarty/Smarty_Compiler.class.php on line 400

When I look at my Smarty_Compiler.class.php on line 400

I see no way to correct this.


        // put header at the top of the compiled template
        $template_header = "_version.", created on ".strftime("%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S")."\n";
        $template_header .= "        compiled from ".strtr(urlencode($resource_name), array('%2F'=>'/', '%3A'=>':'))." */ ?>\n";

Is there any way to fix this or at least turn the error notice off?

I found a post in German that looked as though it resolved the problem but I don't understand German unfortunately.

Your help is appreciated.
