Re: Bad Timestamp Format

Hi Tom,

I went to ResultSet.java and made all the formats into
df = new SimpleDateFormat("yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm");

so now it works. As I don't require the seconds and milliseconds part,
it is ok now.

my program inserts the date values in the "yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm" format.
Perhaps that is causing the problem. However I am not changing the
default format either in the driver or in the database.

Thanks,
Nagarajan.

Hi Nagarajan,

What driver version are you using? The latest drivers at least
should switch the database to return ISO datestyle timestamps
when it first gets a connection. The current driver code expects
to parse the ISO format which is why you are getting this exception
below. Are you changing the datestyle in your program? I'm unfamilar
with how to get postgres to return a timestamp in the short format without
the seconds which you have below. The ISO format usually returns...
1970-01-01 00:00:00 if without time zone is specified. Can you perhaps
provide sample code that reproduces the problem using the latest driver?

You can download the latest drivers here...

Cheers,

Tom.
