Status: Accepted Owner: segdeha Nov 10, 2009 issue 17 (PHP problems with SL 10.6.2) commented on by p...@hillside.co.uk - Hmm. Perhaps work arounds from the authors are not speedy. I am in the UK and adding: date_default_timezone_set('UTC'); after the ); which terminates the constants array in ..home/Library/Widgets/PHPfr.wdgt/Assets/php/date.php works for me. If you are in another timezone, then you can do this by hand. See below for context. I had sort of expected that date_default_timezone_set(date_default_timezone_get()); would work - but it didn't. The code needs to look at the system to get the timezone, if Apple isn't prepared to get php configured 'properly', it probably needs to use some posix type lookups to get the system time and set the timezone correctly. However, I suggest that you use the widget and lookup date_default_timezone_set to find the timezone for you - then the quick and dirty hack will also work. Here's the context for the code change - replace UTC by your timezone. Old code: 'DATE_W3C' => DATE_W3C ); if (!isset($argv[1]) \|\| '' == $argv[1]) { $return = ' '; New code: 'DATE_W3C' => DATE_W3C ); date_default_timezone_set('UTC'); if (!isset($argv[1]) \|\| '' == $argv[1]) { $return = ' '; Hmm.
