Briefly, this error occurs when Elasticsearch is unable to parse the schedule due to an invalid year times format. This usually happens when the cron expression used in the schedule is incorrect or not properly formatted. To resolve this issue, you should verify the cron expression used in the schedule. Ensure it follows the correct format: minute (0 – 59), hour (0 – 23), day of the month (1 – 31), month (1 – 12), and day of the week (0 – 6) (Sunday=0).
