      What were you trying to do that didn't work?

      A customer tried starting mariadb after changing the date to year 2038. It appears that the service won't start, complaining with:

      2038-01-31 13:00:03 0 [ERROR] This server doesn't support dates later than 2038
      

      This is problematic, because, even through RHEL9 won't be supported anymore, it's very possible that embedded devices still execute it.
      Please hence try fixing this ASAP.

      Please provide the package NVR for which bug is seen:

      mariadb-server-10.5.22-1.el9_2

      How reproducible:

      Always

      Steps to reproduce

      1. Change the date to Jan 31, 2038
        # date 013113002038
      2. Start the service

      Expected results

      Starts properly

      Actual results

      Fails
