Steps to reproduce:
In GUI, create an automation.
Trigger:
Time.
Specific time: 11:40:00 PM was selected.
Then Do:
Lock door. (Not that this matters). Clearly HA is now broken and doesn't know what time is.

Tried to manually edit the YAML and add in:

- id: 8c19ebea-17ef-4c90-878e-562ec644c107
  alias: Automation School Mode Force - Automatically
  initial_state: true
  triggers:
    - at: 23:40:00
      trigger: time
  conditions:
    - condition: and
      conditions:
        - condition: time
          weekday:
            - mon
            - tue
            - wed
            - thu
            - fri
  actions:
    - action: lock.lock
      continue_on_error: true
      data: {}
      target:
        entity_id: lock.school_only

Same result. When you check the configuration, it's fine, but when you restart HA, it disabled the automation and gives the same error.

#

Come to find out, it's an issue with selecting the days. Again, even in the UI if you create the automation and select the days, it breaks it as well. Leave the days off both in UI and YAML mode, worked fine.

timezone ok? NTP sever fail?

Server time is fine. I have no clue what's causing it 🙁

The time must be in quotes.
