RequestTimeTooSkewed

Information

PSPDFKit Server has been deprecated and replaced by PSPDFKit Document Engine. All PSPDFKit Server and PSPDFKit for Web Server-Backed licenses will work as before and be supported until 15 May 2024 (we will contact you about license migration). To start using Document Engine, refer to the migration guide. With Document Engine, you’ll have access to robust new capabilities (read the blog for more information).

If you use an S3 asset storage backend and see the following error message in the server logs, it means there’s an issue with the system clock being skewed:

<Error><Code>RequestTimeTooSkewed</Code>
<Message>The difference between the request time and the current time is too large.</Message>

AWS S3 will report an error when a time included in the request isn’t close enough to the time that AWS considers to be “current,” which means that the system clock needs to be synchronized. This can be fixed via specific commands. NTP Pool is a reliable public NTP service you can use to do this.
