Hey there,

I am using Mahara 16.10.4 and I am facing the problem of not being able to sign in into mahara from Moodle,

This is the error that I am receiving, 

Any idea ?

Thanks

Hello Mario,

did you read the first line of the error message? It says:

...Time drift (0,520) is too large...

If Moodle and mahara are running on different machines, then the clocks do not match. Or the clock is completely wrong.

Hello Mario,

In the case of time drift, usually it helps to restart the Moodle server (I guess the Mahara server would do as well, but we usually restarted a Moodle server) and then all worked again.

Cheers
