Unsupported Locale setting error when running Azure pipelines

I am getting this below error snippet when I try to run pipeline build from Azure. 2024-06-18T06:02:45.1075555Z Your configuration files at build have not been touched. 2024-06-18T06:02:45.3914362Z Traceback (most recent call last): 2024-06-18T06:02:45.3915081Z File "/build/sources/poky/bitbake/bin/bitbake", line 28, in 2024-06-18T06:02:45.3915488Z bb.utils.check_system_locale() 2024-06-18T06:02:45.3915863Z File "/build/sources/poky/bitbake/lib/bb/utils.py", line 619, in check_system_locale 2024-06-18T06:02:45.3916530Z locale.setlocale(locale.LC_CTYPE, default_locale) 2024-06-18T06:02:45.3916923Z File "/usr/lib/python3.10/locale.py", line 620, in setlocale 2024-06-18T06:02:45.3917257Z return _setlocale(category, locale) 2024-06-18T06:02:45.3917582Z locale.Error: unsupported locale setting 2024-06-18T06:02:45.5578186Z Traceback (most recent call last): 2024-06-18T06:02:45.5578712Z File "/build/sources/poky/bitbake/bin/bitbake", line 28, in 2024-06-18T06:02:45.5579048Z bb.utils.check_system_locale() 2024-06-18T06:02:45.5579380Z File "/build/sources/poky/bitbake/lib/bb/utils.py", line 619, in check_system_locale 2024-06-18T06:02:45.5579767Z locale.setlocale(locale.LC_CTYPE, default_locale) 2024-06-18T06:02:45.5580111Z File "/usr/lib/python3.10/locale.py", line 620, in setlocale 2024-06-18T06:02:45.5580420Z return _setlocale(category, locale) 2024-06-18T06:02:45.5580696Z locale.Error: unsupported locale setting I followed these links and have set locale correctly.

I have also tried locale-gen, sudo dpkg-reconfigure locales as per the attached links. Locally on the server/terminal, I am able to run bitbake. I can see the correct LC_CTYPE/LC_ALL variables/values being set/reflecting correctly. bitbake machine1-image works correctly when I login to the terminal. But when I queue the build from Azure pipeline, it fails with the error. ** - Links Followed: ** https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/169039/problem-with-locale-setting-locale-failed https://stackoverflow.com/questions/65525716/why-do-i-get-a-locale-error-even-though-it-is-set https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/626916/how-to-set-locale-correctly-manually/626919 https://stackoverflow.com/questions/42090237/change-locale-setting-in-yocto?rq=3 https://stackoverflow.com/questions/78006534/python-locale-raising-unsupported-locale-setting **Misc Details:** IBM server. 22.04LTS Kirkstone/Yocto
