Web App Errors

Upload Error - RequestTimeTooSkewed

AWS RequestTimeTooSkewed Error

this bug has occured for some users running Windows 10 and is typically caused by a mismatch in your computers system time and the time on the AWS server.

one way you can check is by running the below in the terminal:

$ curl http://s3.amazonaws.com -v 
$ date -u 

the first command will return the time on the AWS server, and the second command will return the time on your computer. if the times are off by more than 15 minutes, you’ll need to resynchronize your system’s clock to resolve the problem.
