This could be due to incorrect syntax, missing fields, or invalid values in the role definition. To resolve this issue, you should first verify the role definition for any syntax errors. Then, ensure that all required fields are present and that the values provided are valid. If the problem persists, consider recreating the role with correct privileges.
