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

OK, you are missing en_US.utf8
Demonstration below
Code: Select all
LC_ALL=en_GB.utf8 date
Tue 16 Apr 19:19:21 CEST 2024
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
Leaving en_GB.utf8 as default should be OK
