Solution
- Search for the string in the error.log (in this case, 27634s).
- Back up the history/schedulerqueue.hist file.
- Manually edit the history/schedulerqueue.hist file, and either try to repair the incorrect entry if the issue is obvious, or delete the corrupted lin.
- Save the file.
Additional information
This issue occurs when there is a corrupted line in the /hist/schedulerqueue.hist file.
