Briefly, this error occurs when Elasticsearch is unable to parse a schedule because it expects a numeric value but is receiving a different format. This usually happens when setting up a cron job or a scheduled task in Elasticsearch. To resolve this issue, ensure that the schedule is in the correct format. If it’s a cron job, it should be a string of five fields separated by spaces. If it’s a simple interval, it should be a numeric value followed by a time unit, like “10m” for 10 minutes.
