Edit php.ini, mine, on CentOS 7 is located at /etc/php.ini.
Lets add the following line.
date.timezone = America/New_YorkFor other timezone take a look at http://www.php.net/manual/en/timezones.php
and then restart httpd
service httpd restart
If you don’t have access to the php.ini, here is another way to do it.
On our app/php…
if(!ini_get('date.timezone'))
{
date_default_timezone_set('GMT');
}😉
<?php
$birthDate = "1984-05-21";
$birthDate = explode("-", $birthDate);
$age = (date("md", date("U", mktime(0, 0, 0, $birthDate[2], $birthDate[1], $birthDate[0]))) > date("md") ? ((date("Y")-$birthDate[0])-1):(date("Y")-$birthDate[0]));
echo "Age is: ".$age;
?>
As seen on http://stackoverflow.com/questions/15341767/calculate-age-with-php-in-yyyy-mm-dd-format
This is how
root@digitalwhores:~# dpkg-reconfigure tzdata
