[Bug]SpawnDate fail when server runs for a long time

Hello,
Today I noticed on my arena duel servers that I couldn't spawn anymore (SpawnDate wasn't correct... see the screenshot)
I think already saw that reported before. Any news of what could cause this, or a way to fix it?
Thanks for your answers :)
Note that a reboot fixes the problem. :)

well personally i always keep an eye on how long a server is running and restart it as soon as i notice that it's running more than ~20 days
I think it's only happening after over 30-40 days but as i can't check it every day I'm kind of preventing it earlier ^^

if you have the access you could also use a script that kills and restarts your server regularly but that's not possible on every host

I have a Linux machine I rent to setup my servers.
But they didn't run since that time.
I restart them at least one time per week, that's why it seems strange to me.
I'll take a look @logs to see when I did start it, and when it crashed first.
Thanks for your help ;)
