[it-all]

Produces:
timezone Error!

In CheckRequirementsCommand.php line 45:

[RuntimeException]
Some system requirements are not fulfilled. Please check output messages and fix them.

Upon first getting this, I updated my php.ini date.timezone to America/New_York and restarted Apache. The date.timezone in phpinfo() output now shows America/New_York for both local and master values (they were blank prior to this). But the Sylius installation error remains.

Is there some sort of cache I need to clear before it will work? Or do you have other ideas of the cause?

Check if your CLI config has also date.timezone set up (php -i | grep timezone).

That was it. Thanks a lot!
