Changing system timezone breaks container about apx

[Pamalosebi]

I fixed it with a simple apx init. Then just agree with y and it would work again.
-> that might damage installed software.

Maybe that should be triggered automatically in a save way.

I just tried your suggestion. It does make the container work again, but it does so by re-initializing it, deleting all installed packages, changes etc. in the process. I don't think it should be used as a fix, but rather as a last resort if we can't find a better solution.

I had the same problem, this re-init worked
But... I almost 100% sure I choose the correct timezone on install, but after some time I saw that the time was wrong and changed to my TZ, and this happened, I'm not sure, but the only thing I did that is (really faaaaaaar) near to time is change the time settings to show weekdays in Gnome Tweaks

I have the same problem after changing the time.

"error creating container: exit status 1"

I don't know how to resolve this.

I would like to add that after reinitializing the container, I tried to reproduce the error by changing the system time/timezone, but to no avail. Maybe the problem only presents itself if the wrong timezone is chosen during install?

Strange, this was my experience as well. I was sure I had picked the correct timezone on install, but later on I discovered the clock was wrong so I thought I had made a mistake and corrected the timezone. That's when the container stopped working. Maybe this is a problem with the install process in Vanilla and not related to apx?
