If it isn't showing the correct value, check the location of the php.ini that is being used in the "Loaded Configuration File" value toward the top of that output. By default, php doesn't use the system's TZ, Hello, I did, it shows the error about not being correctly set: Warning: phpinfo(): It is not safe to rely on the system's timezone settings. You are *required* to use the date.timezone setting or the date_default_timezone_set() function. In case you used any of those methods and you are still getting this warning, you most likely misspelled the timezone identifier. We selected the timezone 'UTC' for now, but please set date.timezone to select your timezone. in /var/www/html/phpinfo.php on line 4 Why would it just start doing this?
