I have used these steps to compile my image: https://www.mathworks.com/help/compiler/package-matlab-standalone-applications-into-docker-images.html
I'm having some trouble setting the timezone in a compiled Docker image.
How to reproduce the problem:
  1. run the matlab runtime image: docker run --rm -it -e TZ=Asia/Singapore --name mlrt --entrypoint bash matlabruntime/r2024b/release/update0/f00040001040000002
  2. within the container, running date +'%:z %Z' returns +00:00 Asia when I'm expecting +08:00
What I've tried
Since the base image claims to be based on Ubuntu: https://www.mathworks.com/help/compiler/get-matlab-runtime-container.html
I have tried but failed:
  1. Setting the TZ environment variable; this usually works for other Ubuntu-based containers.
  2. timedatectl doesn't work. Source: https://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/trusty/en/man1/timedatectl.1.html
Does anyone know how to set it to the correct timezone or could point me to the documentation?
Thanks.

Here's the response from my local MATLAB distributor that solved the issue for me:
The base Ubuntu image provided does not include the tzdata package. This is needed for correct identification of timezones. There are 2 ways to solve this: it can be installed after the image is built, or during the the build process.
  • For the former, execute this in the container:
apt-get update && apt-get install tzdata -y
