New help fixing time from UTC to my local time in Florida

[Adrianwx23]

Hmmm???
Digging a bit deeper, do you have a file /etc/default/locale and if so what does it contain?

Hmm, all i have done is update the timezone in the cmx dashboard also in the PI as you can see in the screenshot i posted above but it is still stuck in 24hr instead of 12hr. Confusing stuff surely

Yes, time zone is one part.
Can you please tell me what the command locale returns

OK, you are missing en_US.utf8
Demonstration below

Code: Select all

LC_ALL=en_GB.utf8 date

Code: Select all

LC_ALL=en_US.utf8 date
Tue Apr 16 07:19:30 PM CEST 2024

I do think that you need to add en_US.utf8, as a starting point

Code: Select all

sudo dpkg-reconfigure locales

Leaving en_GB.utf8 as default should be OK
