Re: InstantDB: Datetime issue


Hi, Wilfred --

The problem is probably your format mask in the database
property file.  You say: "My property file has
dateTimeFormat set to "yyyy-mm-dd hh:mm:ss.lll".  Notice
that you're using the same abreviation for months as for
minutes, "mm"?  Minutes should be "nn".  See this in the
archive, discussing how the sample.prp file in v3_25
contains this error:
http://instantdb.enhydra.org/project/mailingLists/instantdb/msg01033.html

Change your dateTimeFormat to "yyyy-mm-dd hh:nn:ss.lll"
and I bet all will be well ...

Regards,
Bill Graham
