Getting lots of warnings during install regarding date/time

Post by wmdvanzyl »

Installing 1.11.7 on shared hosting option with isp where i already have several other domains deployed - so the versions of php, mysql etc. are not at fault.

I've never had this before:

Code: Select all

We selected 'Africa/Johannesburg' for 'SAST/2.0/no DST' instead in /home/server/public_html/rescuerefin/install/index.php on line 49

When i started the project that was the newest version. I am moving it from the dev server to the staging server. After the deployment on the staging server i do any updates and final changes, then we go live. I guess i just don't want to deal with possible upgrade issues in the middle of that process.

The site installed correctly in the end, so i have no idea what those warning were about. I will check if they pop up again during the upgrade.
