Installed Proxmox 7.4-17 on a new PC. Everything works except that Host -> Summary graphs do not move and all show 1969-12-31. See attached screenshot.

Any help please?

You know this is ancient, don't you? (8.1.4 is current)

Proxmox is Debian, so this should get you started: https://wiki.debian.org/DateTime

Proxmox wants to use chrony: https://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/Time_Synchronization

Thanks. I will look into 8.1.4.

I checked the links. Proxmox has the right date/time. If I look at the VM -> Summary, the graphs are all accurate. 'Date' in Proxmox shell returns today's date as well.

I neglected to mention that this used PC came with a dead CMOS battery. I think I installed Proxmox first, and modified BIOS date/time manually, rebooted a few times, before replacing the CMOS battery. Not sure if it matters.

The date in the thread title is what you get when you boot Linux with a dead CMOS (Unix time of zero). If chronyd or systemd-timedatectl are running they will fix the time after the boot is complete. Perhaps the web service gets started before that is done.
