I consume wcf service with wsHttpBinding then i face following error

"The security timestamp is invalid because its creation time ('2014-11-05T06:23:30.868Z') is in the future. Current time is '2014-11-05T06:17:07.406Z' and allowed clock skew is '00:05:00'."

Use this code in config file

<wshttpbinding>
<binding name="WSHttpBinding_IPatientService" closetimeout="00:01:00">
openTimeout="00:01:00" receiveTimeout="00:10:00" sendTimeout="00:01:00"

Hi,

This exception occurs when the service binding has a security binding element, and the difference of the client/server clocks is larger than the allowed value (the default is 5 minutes). In your case it seems like they are apart by about 5'16". There are two alternatives you can consider to solve this problem:

- Make sure that the client and server clocks are more in sync (if they have access to a common network time server, a "net time" command should help)

- Increase the allowed skew. This setting is not available on standard bindings, you'd have to convert it to a custom binding and update this value on the security binding element.

And since you're defining the binding via config, add this:

XML

<bindings>
<custombinding>
 <binding name="MaxClockSkewBinding">
     <textmessageencoding />
     <security>
        <localclientsettings maxclockskew="00:10:00" />
        <localservicesettings maxclockskew="00:10:00" />
       <secureconversationbootstrap />
     </security>
     <httptransport />
 </binding>
</custombinding>
</bindings>

Hope this helps !! :)
