Can you please try something like this

0 0 11-18 * * 2014

For this year every day every month from 11 to 6 pm.

Hi Sidharth,

You cannot use the above string to scehdule the class. The year parameter does not support the "?" character.

In stead you can use a range like 2014-2020. Maximum allowed range value is 1970-2099.

Or you can just leave it out of the cron string. It is optional anyway.

0 0 11-18 * * 2014-2050 - something like this should work.

Thanks,
Kaustav
