Loading an ICS file caused a reboot loop #138439

The problem

I have a calendar in my Microsoft mail that I wanted to use in HomeAssistant. I exported the ICS file from Microsoft mail and then created a new HA calendar using the option to create based on an ICS file. This produced an error, however when I went into Calendar there was a calendar that had imported. No appointments showed though and then I realised that HA had stopped responding.

HA Restarted itself and when Up I went into the calendar to check if this had added the entries. It had not, but then HA restarted again. This pattern continued with a short period of function and then a reboot. Eventually I managed to delete the added calendar (not easy from the calendar and it took me a while to figure it out). Once deleted everything returned to normal.

I then re-exported the ICS and attempted to do this again, assuming maybe the ICS file was bad. This resulted in the same reboot loop so I removed the calendar again.

Anything in the logs that might be useful for us?

I do not believe so.  There were no errors or anything and the log itself is cluttered (something just discovered that I need to address!)

Additional information

The calendar I was trying to load is circa 60 repeating events that repeat every 9 weeks (my wifes shifts). If I need to share this I can however as it would give access to those shifts I am reluctant to do it on a public platform.
