Setup - Dictionaries with timezone not set

Using my Dolibarr
1
/dolibarr/admin/dict.php?mainmenu=home

gives an error when the Timezone is not set in php.ini:

While I am aware this is my fault for forgetting to set that on this box, maybe the error should be cought and that message displayed in the browser.

Also I reocmmend that maybe the install script checks if the timezone i set in php.ini so this doesn’t happen in the first place? (also during update of course)

Hi,
got the same error, and set date.timezone value in php.ini , and error disappears

4

I did the same. in php ini I have added
date.timezone=“Asia/Dubai”
then I have created a php script in the root directory of my webserver with the following content.
<?php
phpinfo();
?>

I named it phpinfo.php

then I called it throu the browsers and got correct valued=s from server.

You probably not edit the php.ini that is used by apache.
Check into dir /etc/php5/apache/

6

where is no such folder.my /etc/ is empty. and /php/ is in same directory as /etc/
php.ini is in public_html.

Pièces jointes :

from Dolibarr About PHP menu, I can see that php.ini has been loaded from /opt/php56/lib/php/php.ini
I don’t have this directory. or file

8

I has able to fix the issue with the help of hosting provider’s support.
it appears that dolibarr is looking for php.ini in provider’s set directory, which for security reasons is not available for modification but ther’s a way to enable recursive php.ini.
what does that mean? just by typing something in htaccess file php starts looking for php.ini in all folders.
This is a link

something to Dolibarr developers also.
before fixing with above method I checked with phpinfo() function and Dolibarr’s Admin Tools->about PHP menu.
both returned different values for Loaded Configuration File.
it seems to be a bug. and please implement timezone in Dolibarr per user rather than server’s whiting php.ini.

I hope it will help

Incredible!, All Dictonaries and permissions issues were solved by going to:
PHP Selector | extensions in my cpanel

After that,
Switch To PHP Options

date.timezone reset to the server.
