Research direction
Start in apps/dav/lib/CalDAV/WebcalCaching/RefreshWebcalService.php around line 131 and inspect how the supplied ICS recurrence rule is processed during cron subscription refresh. Reproduce the failure with the provided event and confirm whether the calendar object can be created without the logged error. Done means the subscription refresh handles this recurrence data without emitting the error.
