PHP date timezone bug

First of all here is my php.ini configuration regarding date:

 [Date]
 date.timezone = 'America/Sao_Paulo'

When i get ini_get('date.timezone') it fives me the following America/Sao_paulo (Notice the lowercase P)

I have the following error everytime i use 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 'America/Sao_Paulo' for 'BRT/-3.0/no DST'

If i use 

date_default_timezone_set('America/Sao_Paulo');

Everything goes fine so i guess something is screwing my timezone configuration.

Are you sure you are setting it in the correct php.ini?

Call phpinfo() and make sure you are modifying the ini file listed under "Loaded Configuration File"

Edit: While you are looking at phpinfo() you can also see if the timezone is actually being set by looking under Date->Default timezone
