Upgrading to 4.2.2 Alpha 1 Issues

[scroush]

Just finished upgrading and after the upgrade when I try to go to the forums or AdminCP I received the error below.

Warning: date() [function.date]: It is not safe to rely on the system's timezone settings. Please use the date.timezone setting, the TZ environment variable 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 'EDT/-4.0/DST' instead in ..../includes/functions.php on line 4912

Im running 5.2.17 (which I cannot upgrade) so what would I need to add to the php.ini if needed?

I fixed the time issue by adding this date.timezone="America/New_York" to the PHP.ini file however now Im getting the errors below

Nothing you can add to php.ini, display_errors = Off wont get rid of that error either, report it as a bug with your version of php, apparently they missed some backward compatibility fixes.

Found in another thread, I added:
date.timezone="America/New_York"

to my php.ini file and started apache and the error when away.
