| Issue | Error: "Command has expired" in RSA Adaptive Authentication 5.7 application server log How to fix Daylight Savings Time synchronization drift During Daylight Savings Time adjustment on the RSA Adaptive Authentication On Premise Solution server, users attempting to enroll or sign in to the online application cannot be authenticated. The existence of the following application server log file entry indicates the problem: <ProtocolAdapterBase failed: Command has expired!> com.passmarksecurity.PassMarkException: Command has expired! |
| Cause | The Date function used in RSA Adaptive Authentication On Premise Solution server adjusts automatically for the local server Daylight Savings Time. This adjustment creates a logical hour difference between the calling client server and the Adaptive Authentication On Premise server which results in an expired cookie situation and the "Command has expired" error. |
| Resolution | Set the client and host server to GMT to insure matching times. A quick workaround to this problem is to shift the clock on the server by 1 hour. The item is scheduled for fixing in version 5.8 of the Adaptive authentication on premise solution. |
