There are some problems with running Drupal on php 5.3. There are five kinds of solutions:
- Downgrade to php 5.2.6 (not possible in many situations)
- modify Drupal to change the error level reporting
- find the latest patches to fix the problems
- hack Drupal core or contrib yourself to fix the errors (Drupal 6 is already compliant, but not D5)
- put a timezone in your php.ini to get rid of timezone errors
