Thank you for sharing that link.  It inspired several tests that I
conducted which helped me solve the problem.  The issue was that the
date was significantly incorrect.

I was able to fix this with `sudo date --set='YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM:SS'`.
The changed date did not persist after a reboot and I had the same
error.  To make the changed date persist after a reboot I used this
command `sudo hwclock --systohw`.
