Function date_default_timezone_set() is not available

Question

As the title says, can anybody explain why the code

ini_set( \'date.timezone\', \'Europe/Athens\' );

works but

date_default         


        

Answer 1

You must be using an old version of PHP.

date_default_timezone_set is for PHP 5.1.2 and above.

Try php -v and check your PHP version.
