Timezone not working during Build

Hi,

During my build it always fails due to the timezone error below:

php artisan migrate

Warning: 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 the timezone ‘UTC’ for now, but please set date.timezone to select your timezone. in /home/circleci/project/config/const.php on line 11

Current Timezone use for my application is Asia/Tokyo

Config file used:
version: 2

Any help would really be appreciated. Thanks!

Try using just “Asia/Tokyo” for your TZ environmental variables.
