Docky not starting at all. Gives Unhandled Exception in debug mode

I am running Arch on my Fujitsu p1510d netbook, with XFCE. I installed docky and everything seemed fine, but I attempted to open docky and it would not start. I then opened a terminal and typed "docky -d" to run in debug mode, and this is the output:

Unhandled Exception:
System.TypeInitializationException: An exception was thrown by the type initializer for Docky.Services.Logging.LogBase ---> System.TypeInitializationException: An exception was thrown by the type initializer for GLib.Marshaller ---> System.TimeZoneNotFoundException: Exception of type 'System.TimeZoneNotFoundException' was thrown.

Re: Docky not starting at all. Gives Unhandled Exception in debug mode

I had the same problem, it turns out that it's just need to reset the time zone (I find this weird since my time zone was already set properly  previously)
To view all available tome zones:

$ timedatectl list-timezones

Than set for the appropriate time zone (as root):

$ timedatectl set-timezone Zone/SubZone
