Symfony using Mac OS X

Question

I am trying to start a project using Symfony on a Mac Sierra.

I installed Symfony successfully, but I get this warning:

We selected the timezone 'UTC' for now, but please set date.timezone to select your timezone. in phar:///usr/local/bin/symfony/src/Symfony/Installer/NewCommand.php on line 283 ✕ Symfony 3.2.1 was successfully installed but your system doesn't meet its technical requirements! Fix the following issues before executing your Symfony application: * date.timezone setting must be set > Set the "date.timezone" setting in php.ini* (like Europe/Paris).

I tried to change php.ini with brackets editor on the created project on folders:

project/vendor/doctrine/cache/test/travis/php.ini
project/vendor/doctrine/doctrine-cache-bundle/test/travis/php.ini

Didn't help.

As I read Symfony has built-in Apache Server.

Those php.ini files are totally unrelated to what you have to do.

Open up the Terminal and type php -i | grep "php.ini". That should reveal the location of the php.ini which is used by PHP in console mode.

XAMPP is known for using different php.ini file for the server. In order to find the the one used by the XAMPP, run a sample php file with phpinfo() from browser.

Also, note that Symonfy itself does not have the built-in server. In merely used the one PHP provided from version 5.4 and on.

Hope this helps...

I am Mac user, so , in Finder you need to go to /private/etc, find php.ini.default, Yo need to copy that file to the desktop. To edit you need to unlock the document. Just click Unlock if asked. Rename to php.ini, set the date.timezone=Europe/YourCountry and do not forget to erase the semicolon before.And finally save it and put it back to etc.
