Error while registering repo

Apologies first, I am aware that the plugin versions here are very old. Unfortunately we have an old version of ES in production and I need to take some snapshots.

ES Version: 1.7.3 Snapshot Plugin version: 2.7.1

When registering the repo, I get this error - any pointers will help.
