Why does the date doesn't match with what I have inserted into the database?

Tag: sql,database,oracle

I tried to display the sqlcommand after I saved into the database. Everything seemed to work pretty fine, but when I opened my table from TOAD, the dates are wrong.

Here is my sql command:

INSERT INTO USERTASK (USERTASKKEY, USERID, TASKKEY, TASKDATE, CREATEDATE, CREATEUSERID)
VALUES (USERTASKSEQUENCE.NEXTVAL, 'admin2', '1',
        TO_DATE('05-06-2015','yyyy/mm/dd HH24:MI:SS'),
        TO_DATE('2015-06-16 15:39:42', 'yyyy/mm/dd HH24:MI:SS'), 'admin')

In my database the date save as:

6/20/0016 3:00:00.000000

Here you can see a screenshot with several dates wrong:

enter image description here

What am I doing wrong?

Best How To :

In the TO_DATE function you have to keep the format. The first parameter is the data and the second parameter is the format you are putting it. For example:

   to_date('29-Oct-09', 'DD-Mon-YY')
   to_date('10/29/09', 'MM/DD/YY')
   to_date('120109', 'MMDDYY')
   to_date('29-Oct-09', 'DD-Mon-YY HH:MI:SS') 
   to_date('Oct/29/09', 'Mon/DD/YY HH:MI:SS')
   to_date('October.29.2009', 'Month.DD.YYYY HH:MI:SS')

So if you put TO_DATE('05-06-2015','yyyy/mm/dd HH24:MI:SS') it tries to convert 05-06-2015 to the format yyyy/mm/dd HH24:MI:SS

Try with TO_DATE('05-06-2015','DD/MM/YYYY')

Is there a better way to write this query involving a self select?

Creating a generic / abstract “DBContext” Class for shared functionality among different DBs

The key here is to step back and think about the problem from another angle. You are duplicating lots of code because you are creating instances of the database and command classes within the method. So inject them instead: public class SomeDBClass { static DataTable exec_DT(DBConnection conn, DBCommand cmd) {...
