Message-ID: <20030206040247.GA8032@diaspora.gen.nz> (raw)
Postgresql 7.2.3
insert
into log_entries
values (to_date('06/Feb/2003:11:29:11 +13', 'DD/Mon/YYYY:HH24:MI:SS'),0,302,
[... various other data elided ...]);
Always inserts the correct date, but sets the time to midnight.
Thinking this might be solved by shuffling with the source data, I've
tried such combinations as:
to_date('06/Feb/2003:11:29:11', 'DD/Mon/YYYY:HH24:MI:SS')
to_date('06/Feb/2003:11:29:11 +13', 'DD/Mon/YYYY:HH:MI:SS')
to_date('06/02/2003:11:29:11', 'DD/MM/YYYY:HH24:MI:SS')
...and so forth, but despite the column in question being a timestamp
with timszone, everything except the date gets truncated.
