CODE:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

function trackCountry($ip,$date)
{
include("geoip.inc");
include("geoipcity.inc");
include("geoipregionvars.php");
//function for opening the database 
$gi = geoip_open("/opt/lampp/htdocs/theopencamp/Ver2/theopencamp2/include/GeoLiteCity.dat", GEOIP_STANDARD);
//function to retrieve the information of the particular ip and casting it to array
$rsGeoData =(array) geoip_record_by_addr($gi,$ip);
geoip_close($gi);
         if(is_array($rsGeoData))
             {
               $countrycode=$rsGeoData['country_code'];
               $region=$rsGeoData['region'];
             }
             //Converting of localtime to utc
require("timezone.php");
$tz= get_time_zone($countrycode,$region);
$timestamp = 1240349566;
 // set this to the time zone provided by the user
 // create the DateTimeZone object for later
$dtzone = new DateTimeZone($tz);
 // first convert the timestamp into a string representing the local time
$time = date('r', $timestamp);
 // now create the DateTime object for this time
$dtime = new DateTime($date);
 // convert this to the user's timezone using the DateTimeZone object
$dtime->setTimeZone($dtzone);
// print the time using your preferred format
$time = $dtime->format('Y-m-d-H-i-s');
return $time;
}
?>

which part is causing the problem? Isolate the steps and echo or print out the variables. You need to know which elements are causing problems before you start making wholesale changes.

the DateTime function is throwing an error

[kris82009]

$dtzone = new DateTimeZone($tz); is throwing error and this class does'nt support in php5.1.6 version so is there any replacement for that class

What is the error?

[diafol]

are you just trying to 'correct' a server datetime to the user's local time?

[danishbacker]

Are you getting any error or incorrect date?
if it is incorrect date then setting the default timezone as below will solve ur problem

date_default_timezone_set('Asia/Calcutta');

Also paste the code for "timezone.php"
