why oracle is inserting “hh24:mi:ss” like a date “dd/mm/yyy”
Вопрос
I need to run this sql statement:
INSERT INTO JSP_CONTROL (estado,hora_inicio,fecha,tipo) VALUES
('ACTUALIZANDO',to_char(sysdate, 'HH24:mi:SS'),sysdate,'uno');
this is the table:
CREATE TABLE "GCUENTAS"."JSP_CONTROL"
(
"ESTADO" VARCHAR2(20 BYTE),
"HORA_INICIO" TIMESTAMP (6),
"HORA_TERMINO" TIMESTAMP (6),
"FECHA" DATE,
"TIPO" VARCHAR2(20 BYTE)
The problem is here: to_char(sysdate, 'HH24:mi:SS'), it's supposed to insert something like "16:01:35", but insert "16/01/35" (in DD/MM/YY format).
making some test like
SELECT to_char(sysdate, 'HH24:mi:SS') FROM DUAL
are succesfull
This is the message error:
Error que empieza en la línea 1 del comando:
INSERT INTO JSP_CONTROL (estado,hora_inicio,fecha,tipo) VALUES
('ACTUALIZANDO',to_char(sysdate, 'HH24:mi:SS'),sysdate,'uno')

hora_inicio
is a timestamp column, but you are passing a character value to it in the insert statement because of the to_char()
call.
While processing the character value you provided Oracle tries to convert it into a timestamp (because the target column is a timestamp). But a time like 23:56:12
is most definitely not a valid date.
If you are trying to insert only the time part into that column, that won't work. A timestamp always contains a date. There is no datatype in Oracle to only hold a time.
