Is this item a script? Does it output CR or LF characters?

I'am very sorry, but looks like this command on some host return double line value. After fix error not rising again.
Meanwhile such log do nothing to associate with this issue.

Indeed, error message is not the best. Probably, it is something we can improve. Your issue is somewhat related to ZBX-10784, I'll add a comment there since you've already closed this one.
