0 0/3 * 1/1 * ? cannot be parsed

[AlexandruIstrate]

I tried using the 0 0/3 * 1/1 * ? Cron expression but it tells me the ? character is unexpected.

I don't understand why it has issues parsing this since I've been using it with Quartz.Net and it works fine.

What is the problem?

Thanks

Please specify CronFormat.IncludeSeconds in the constructor, otherwise it's unclear in general case whether 6th part is about seconds or about years.

var expression = CronExpression.Parse("0 0/3 * 1/1 * ?", CronFormat.IncludeSeconds);
Console.WriteLine(expression.GetNextOccurrence(DateTime.UtcNow));

Yeah, that makes sense. I did notice my format being different.
