从命令行激活 gcloud 服务帐户时出错

Question

I'm referring to this URL https://cloud.google.com/speech/docs/getting-started to get started with the google speech API. As the site suggests,I followed the following steps

• Create or select a project.
• Enable the Cloud Speech API for that project
• Create a service account
• Download a private key as JSON

I have the gcloud installed on my command-line. Now when i try to activate service account using the below command,

gcloud auth activate-service-account --key-file=my-service-account-key-file

i'm getting the below error.

ERROR: (gcloud.auth.activate-service-account) There was a problem refreshing your current auth tokens: invalid_grant: Invalid JWT: Token must be a short-lived token (60 minutes) and in a reasonable timeframe. Check your iat and exp values and use a clock with skew to account for clock differences between systems.

I suspect it's the problem with the time zone. I'm running the command from my AWS EC2 instance.

Answer 1

I think there is a cache with this somewhere, after around 10 minutes it resolved itself.

I ran into this error when I created a new key for a service account and deleted the old one.

Answer 2

In my case fixing the date solved the issue. If you are in linux, you can change the date by executing

date -s "Thu Feb 24 22:32:36 EET 2022"
