Time zone problem with 1and1 hosting

Hello All,

Well I am building mobile sites at present but have an issue with timezone settings on 1and1 hosting. I have removed the timezone line altogether from a couple of my demo sites but not something to do going forwards. I have tried changing it to Europe/London but have a feeling their servers are elsewhere. I tried Europe/Berlin as that was one google result but no joy!

Here is the error message:
Fatal error: Call to undefined function: date_default_timezone_set() in .............

Any help much appreciated.

Cheers,

Colin

    Fatal error: Call to undefined function: date_default_timezone_set()

    What does it show?

    It may be an old php version... which versions is your hoster running?

    Please give some more informations... just an error message is not enough.

    Did you ask 1&1 yet?
  • you need to specify the php version, so as to get a good solution here
  • Create a file "phpinfo.php" and install it on the site and run it.

    Code:
    <?php


phpinfo();

?>

    It wall tell you what you need to know, or give you the information you need to ask for help
  • Contact 1and1 and ask them to add support for function: date_default_timezone_set()
    Although 1and1 is the slowest hoster I ever dealt with. Not recommended.

    • Good luck with that! The customer service is not so good.

      I'll never use them again.
  • thanks for the feedback people. i got no help from obile money code support but have since bought WillR mobile business and their support is excellent. They suggested same with regards to getting functions enabled.

    Many thanks,

    Colin
  • In your php.ini (if you don't have one just create one with notepad) add this. Change the TimeZone as you need.

    Code:
    [Date]
date.timezone = "America/Los_Angeles"
