Description:
------------
There is a situation where PHP will display errors but never log them.  
It almost seems as though error logging is causing errors now?  Is that 
the most useless kind of feedback message ever?  Warning errors are 
causing errors omgah barbeque.

Reproduce code:
---------------
<?php

ini_set('error_reporting', -1);
ini_set('display_errors', 1);
ini_set('log_errors', 1);

trigger_error('Hello', E_USER_ERROR);

?>

Expected result:
----------------
Fatal error: Hello in test.php on line 7

Actual result:
--------------
Warning: trigger_error() [function.trigger-error]: 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 
'America/New_York' for '-5.0/no DST' instead in test.php on line 7

Fatal error: Hello in test.php on line 7

A second way to describe the issue is that the error_log() function is 
throwing bogus errors.  As in:

<?php

ini_set('error_reporting', -1);
ini_set('display_errors', 1);
ini_set('log_errors', 1);

error_log('Hello World');

?>

This causes 'Hello World' to go to disk, and the bogus Warning to go 
to screen.

I used a different example in OP to illustrate the fact that PHP is 
saying that the Warning was generated by any function whether or not 
it uses timezones in the first place.

I also confirmed that any call to the mail() function results in two 
identical warnings on screen, and one in the log.

Please try using this snapshot:

  http://snaps.php.net/php5.3-latest.tar.gz
 
For Windows:

  http://windows.php.net/snapshots/

IIRC, this was fixed already..then again, you should actually read the error message and do what it suggests? :)

hi jani,

I followed your link and all it says is:

PHP 5.3
5.3 has no release.
PHP 5.2
5.2 has no release.
PHP 6.0
6.0 has no release.

> you should actually read the error message and do what it suggests?

As a developer, I don't have the luxury of assuming servers are 
configured a certain way.  Since PHP offers no way to check if the 
default timezone has been set already, the only alternative I have is to 
disable error reporting, so that functions like mail() wont interrupt 
header output or image generation.

If you do find that Windows snapshot for me, could you check if it comes 
with the installer, or if there are any instructions for upgrading 
without the installer?
