Running .NET 6 project in Docker throws Globalization.CultureNotFoundException

Question

I have upgraded API project from .NET 5 to .NET 6 successfully and running fine when executed locally (without Docker).

I have also updated the version in Dockerfile from "5.0-alpine3.13" to "6.0-alpine3.14" as below (only change I made).

ARG VERSION=6.0-alpine3.14

#Runtime stage
FROM mcr.microsoft.com/dotnet/aspnet:$VERSION AS base
EXPOSE 8080
ENV DOTNET_RUNNING_IN_CONTAINER=true \
  ASPNETCORE_URLS=http://+:8080

#Build stage
FROM mcr.microsoft.com/dotnet/sdk:$VERSION AS build
WORKDIR /src
COPY ["/src/RM.Api/RM.Api.csproj", "/src/RM.Api/"]
RUN dotnet restore "/src/RM.Api/RM.Api.csproj"
COPY . .
WORKDIR "/src/src/RM.Api"

#Publish dotnet project
FROM build AS publish
ARG BUILDCONFIG=RELEASE
RUN dotnet publish "RM.Api.csproj" -c $BUILDCONFIG -o /app/publish

#Create local user, change ownership, and copy artifacts
FROM base AS final
WORKDIR /app
RUN adduser \
  --disabled-password \
  --home /app \
  --gecos '' app \
  && chown -R app /app
USER app
COPY --from=publish /app/publish .
ENTRYPOINT ["dotnet", "RM.Api.dll"]

But when I run this .NET 6 project in Docker it throws the below Azure.Storage exception in the Startup.cs file.

Full stack trace is here.

Microsoft.Azure.Storage.StorageException: Only the invariant culture is supported in globalization-invariant mode. See https://aka.ms/GlobalizationInvariantMode for more information. (Parameter 'name')

I have updated the Dockerfile as below but it did not work. Can any one help here?

Your docker file should look like this for the base section:

FROM mcr.microsoft.com/dotnet/aspnet:6.0-alpine AS base
WORKDIR /app
RUN apk add --no-cache icu-libs
ENV DOTNET_SYSTEM_GLOBALIZATION_INVARIANT=false
EXPOSE 80
EXPOSE 443
