Hi,

I just installed 2.4.1 on my lokal Suse 11.2 apache, mysql, php5 server.

After having copied the files to the /srv/www/htdocs/silverstripe_test
and met all the requirememnts i get the confirming message:

When I press "Install" I get the error message

When i act on the advice "If you receive a fatal error, refresh this page to continue the installation", I get back to the /install.php and a message reads

When i call up http://localhost/silverstripe_test/ i get a friendly

Does anyone know, what i'm missing?

Cheers for your help

Hi Simon

cheers for answering, looks like a good lead. I will try that tomorrow after work, though and report back then. Currently it's close to bedtime in my timezone and I had a few glasses of wine already, so i will refraim from trying that out right now ;-)

My particular entry's: date.timezone = Pacific/Auckland

Also, you must restart Apache after changing the php.ini, or it wont read the changed settings.

This advise did not really work for me. I am trying to install Silver Stripe on Xampp 1.7.2 with php 5.3.0. but it gave the following error:

[Warning] date() [function.date]: 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 'Europe/Paris' for '1.0/no DST' instead

Now i tried editing the php.ini file and restarted the server but it is still giving the same error message. Does anyone have solution
