Hello all,
When I am trying to open the SharePoint Server Search application content sources getting the following error:
Sorry, something went wrong
The security timestamp is invalid because its creation time ('2020-12-04T16:01:09.135Z') is in the future. Current time is '2020-12-04T15:55:59.139Z' and allowed clock skew is '00:05:00'.

Is anyone can help me please ?

Thank you.
Sincerely

Farook Golam

    This means your SharePoint servers are not properly synchronizing time between them and a Domain Controller (external time source -> AD DC (PDC Emulator role) -> all other DCs -> client systems).

    You should have your Active Directory admins take a look at the time synchronization issues.

    Hi @Farook Golam

    Please refer to Trevorseward's reply to have a check, I think it could be helpful.

    Make sure that all servers in your SharePoint farm have the same system time and time zone settings.
