Hi Dan, I had the very problem myself. The fix for it is quite easy, but requires manual editing of one database table. In table "vm_static" find your non-starting vms (they propably all have an empty string set as timezone in column "time_zone") and update that column to null. There was a recent change in the timezone code and it now fails when the timezone is an empty string, but works fine if it null.
