This is weird! System uptime always 0!

This is weird. A Debian LXC vps (in a proxmox installation) shows uptime always as "0". I did an upgrade, date/time is correct and working, load average in top is working, also! Any ideas?

LXC containers don't yet have their own system uptime, [...]

Not sure if that is still the case. However, it should then rather show the uptime of the host sytem instead of zero...

Have a look at this then: http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/trusty/man1/uptime.1.html

No. Linux containers do have their own uptime, just like openvz (I have many containers in other servers with proxmox and each one do have its own uptime, different than server's.
In this case, I do receive always 0, and in webmin installed, the field "system uptime" is blank (not shown 0)

So maybe on this server you are using an older version of Proxmox? See: https://bugzilla.proxmox.com/show_bug.cgi?id=846 ?

@Bochi Hell, yes! I didn't notice that bug in proxmox! It is indeed 4.1! Thanks alot!
