On 7.3.2 and 7.3.4 obtain the same result: template1=# select '03/06/1973'::date; date ------------ 1973-03-06 (1 row)
template1=# select '02/06/1973'::date; date ------------ 1973-02-06 (1 row) template1=# select '06/03/1973'::date; date ------------ 1973-06-03 (1 row) template1=# select '06/02/1973'::date; date ------------ 1973-06-02 (1 row) I suppose that the problem is related to the timezone. I make this test: template1=# select to_timestamp('1973/06/03','yyyy/mm/dd'); to_timestamp ------------------------ 1973-06-02 23:00:00+01 (1 row) template1=# select to_timestamp('1973/06/02','yyyy/mm/dd'); to_timestamp ------------------------ 1973-06-02 00:00:00+01 (1 row) template1=# select to_timestamp('1973/06/04','yyyy/mm/dd'); to_timestamp ------------------------ 1973-06-04 00:00:00+02 Alle 15:33, mercoledì 10 settembre 2003, hai scritto: > On Wed, Sep 10, 2003 at 12:52:22PM +0200, Torello Querci wrote: > > Hi to all, > > > > I have a problem storing 1973/06/03 date. > > > > If I send this statement > > > > select to_date('03/06/1973','dd/mm/yyyy'); > > > > in the psql interface I obtain > > > > to_date > > ------------ > > 1973-06-02 > > > > I test this statement with Postgres 7.3.2 and 7.3.4 packaged withMandrake > > 9.1 and Mandrake 9.2RC1 and obtain the same result. > > > > Can anyone help me? > > What's happen if you try: > > test=# select '03/06/1973'::date; > date > ------------ > 1973-06-03 ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 1: subscribe and unsubscribe commands go to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
