I have a datetime datatype in my table,
`DateAdded` datetime(4) DEFAULT NULL,
I have a record in my database with DateAdded = 2017-09-11 17:02:48.6531 value, ( it's ID = 16452994 ).
When I want to get it with following query return NULL
select `ID`,`DateAdded` from `Add` where `DateAdded` <= FROM_UNIXTIME(('1505071799' +86400 ), '%Y-%m-%d %h:%i:%s') and ID =16452994 ;
FYI : FROM_UNIXTIME(('1505071799' +86400 ), '%Y-%m-%d %h:%i:%s') = 2017-09-11 23:59:59
It's strange that 2017-09-11 17:02:48.6531 <= 2017-09-11 23:59:59 return false
but when I try the following query I'll get my desire result.
select `ID`,`DateAdded` from `Add` where `DateAdded` <= FROM_UNIXTIME(('1505071799' +86400 +1 ), '%Y-%m-%d %h:%i:%s') and ID =1645299;
I want to know why this is happening and how can I resolve this problem?
FROM_UNIXTIME(unix_timestamp), FROM_UNIXTIME(unix_timestamp,format)
Returns a representation of the unix_timestamp argument as a value in 'YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM:SS' or YYYYMMDDHHMMSS.uuuuuu format, depending on whether the function is used in a string or numeric context. The value is expressed in the current time zone. unix_timestamp is an internal timestamp value such as is produced by the UNIX_TIMESTAMP() function.
If format is given, the result is formatted according to the format string, which is used the same way as listed in the entry for the DATE_FORMAT() function.

Here is my table "tb_posts":
I want to select only those rows where datetime field i.e. post_date_published is not equal to 0000-00-00 00:00:00. I am using following query but it doesn't work:
SELECT * FROM `tb_posts` WHERE `post_date_published` IS NOT NULL
I am getting the same output as shown in the above picture.
Why IS NOT NULL is not working?
As per the MYSQL documentation it saves invalid dates as '0000-00-00 00:00:00'. It will not be considered as NULL.
Try comparing with the date '0000-00-00 00:00:00':
SELECT * FROM tb_posts where post_date_published != '0000-00-00 00:00:00'
A method I use with this sort of thing is
SELECT `columns` FROM `tb_posts` WHERE UNIX_TIMESTAMP(`post_date_published`) > 0
From the MySQL Documentation:
The valid range of argument values is the same as for the TIMESTAMP
data type: '1970-01-01 00:00:01.000000' UTC to '2038-01-19
03:14:07.999999' UTC. If you pass an out-of-range date to
UNIX_TIMESTAMP(), it returns 0.
The UNIX_TIMESTAMP function forces the result to be an integer so it's much easier to work with in these quick comparisons. It is also vital for working with MySQL 5.7 where "empty" (ie zero value) date/time columns are not allowed.
(I had a lot of grief trying to convert various date columns to NULL because MySQL 5.7+ didn't recognise 0000-00-00 00:00:00 as a valid comparison -- so I converted it to a unix timestamp so as to compare the timestamp rather than the actual [invalid] date.)
I'm trying to get a datetime column from my table using a simple SELECT statement, but I want the datetime without seconds.
The datetime column is formatted as 10/21/2013 3:19:33 PM.
My query is SELECT DATE_FORMAT(creationdate, '%m-%d%Y %l:%i %p') AS 'Creation Date' FROM processes;
When I run this query, it returns all NULL values. I've double and triple checked, and the column cells do hold datetime values.
However, when I run SELECT DATE_FORMAT(NOW(), '%m-%d%Y %l:%i %p) AS 'Creation Date' FROM processes; I get the current date with correct formatting.
What could cause this?
creationdate must not be of type datetime if it is formatted 10/21/2013 3:19:33 PM by default.
The DATETIME type is used for values that contain both date and time parts. MySQL retrieves and displays DATETIME values in 'YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM:SS' format.
http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.1/en/datetime.html
UPDATE blogs SET start_date = '11/27/2012 00:00',end_date = '11/27/2012 00:00' WHERE id='9'
This query won't store start_date or end_date values for blog id 9 unless I set them to varchar type.
Tried with timestamp and date time but the query allways will return that 0 rows where affected
the thing is I need to be able to check for rows in a interval of time, and with varchar it makes very complicated.
What am i missing?
As stated in Date and Time Literals:
MySQL recognizes DATETIME and TIMESTAMP values in these formats:
As a string in either 'YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM:SS' or 'YY-MM-DD HH:MM:SS' format. A “relaxed” syntax is permitted here, too: Any punctuation character may be used as the delimiter between date parts or time parts. For example, '2012-12-31 11:30:45', '2012^12^31 11+30+45', '2012/12/31 11*30*45', and '2012#12#31 11^30^45' are equivalent.
As a string with no delimiters in either 'YYYYMMDDHHMMSS' or 'YYMMDDHHMMSS' format, provided that the string makes sense as a date. For example, '20070523091528' and '070523091528' are interpreted as '2007-05-23 09:15:28', but '071122129015' is illegal (it has a nonsensical minute part) and becomes '0000-00-00 00:00:00'.
As a number in either YYYYMMDDHHMMSS or YYMMDDHHMMSS format, provided that the number makes sense as a date. For example, 19830905132800 and 830905132800 are interpreted as '1983-09-05 13:28:00'.
Therefore, the strings '11/27/2012 00:00' and '11/27/2012 00:00' are not valid MySQL datetime literals. You have two options (in some vague order of preference, without any further information of your requirements):
Provide your literals in a recognised format:
UPDATE blogs SET
start_date = '2012-11-27 00:00:00',
end_date = '2012-11-27 00:00:00'
WHERE id = 9
Use MySQL's STR_TO_DATE() function to convert the string:
UPDATE blogs SET
start_date = STR_TO_DATE('11/27/2012 00:00', '%m/%d/%Y %H:%i'),
end_date = STR_TO_DATE('11/27/2012 00:00', '%m/%d/%Y %H:%i')
WHERE id = 9
Try this:
UPDATE blogs
SET start_date = STR_TO_DATE('11/27/2012 00:00', '%m/%d/%Y %h:%i:%s') --cast string to date in correct date format
,end_date = STR_TO_DATE('11/27/2012 00:00', '%m/%d/%Y %h:%i:%s')--cast string to date in correct date format
WHERE id = 9 --removed quotes as this field's probably numeric
If using a timestamp column instead of datetime I think you need to do something like this:
UPDATE blogs
SET start_date = UNIX_TIMESTAMP(STR_TO_DATE('11/27/2012 00:00', '%m/%d/%Y %h:%i:%s'))
,end_date = UNIX_TIMESTAMP(STR_TO_DATE('11/27/2012 00:00', '%m/%d/%Y %h:%i:%s'))
WHERE id = 9
I'm trying to create a query using mysql.
select ID,NCOde,ifnull(EndTime,now())-starttime from xxx where starttime between
'2012-05-09 00:00:00' and '2012-05-09 23:59:59'
the problem is ifnull(EndTime,now()) return datetime in 24 hours format, while the starttime using am/pm format.
I've tried using DATE_FORMAT(starttime, '%m-%d-%Y %T'), but it seems that the operation changed the datetime type to other type.
Any advice?
Use STR_TO_DATE() to convert your starttime string to a MySQL DATETIME:
STR_TO_DATE(starttime, '%m-%d-%Y %r')
and then use TIMEDIFF() to subtract two times:
select ID,NCOde,
TIMEDIFF(ifnull(EndTime,now()), STR_TO_DATE(starttime, '%m-%d-%Y %r'))
from xxx
where STR_TO_DATE(starttime,'%m-%d-%Y %r')
between '2012-05-09 00:00:00' and '2012-05-09 23:59:59'
You should probably consider changing the data type of the starttime column to DATETIME or TIMESTAMP. Note also that this assumes EndTime is already of such a data type, or else you will also have to perform a similar conversion with it too.
Use the DATE_SUB() function.
Plus what eggyal said.
Is there way in MySQL to create DATETIME from a given attribute of type DATE and a given attribute of type TIME?
Copied from the MySQL Documentation:
TIMESTAMP(expr), TIMESTAMP(expr1,expr2)
With a single argument, this function returns the date or datetime expression expr as a datetime value. With two arguments, it adds the time expression expr2 to the date or datetime expression expr1 and returns the result as a datetime value.
mysql> SELECT TIMESTAMP('2003-12-31');
-> '2003-12-31 00:00:00'
mysql> SELECT TIMESTAMP('2003-12-31 12:00:00','12:00:00');
-> '2004-01-01 00:00:00'
To get a true DATETIME value from your two separate DATE and TIME values:
STR_TO_DATE(CONCAT(date, ' ', time), '%Y-%m-%d %H:%i:%s')
You could use ADDTIME():
ADDTIME(CONVERT(date, DATETIME), time)
date may be a date string or a DATE object.
time may be a time string or a TIME object.
Tested in MySQL 5.5.
datetime = CONCAT(date, ' ', time);
select timestamp('2003-12-31 12:00:00','12:00:00');
works, when the string is formatted correctly. Otherwise, you can just include the time using str_to_date.
select str_to_date('12/31/2003 14:59','%m/%d/%Y %H:%i');
Without creating and parsing strings, just add an interval to the date:
set #dt_text = '1964-05-13 15:34:05.757' ;
set #d = date(#dt_text) ;
set #t = time(#dt_text) ;
select #d, #t, #d + interval time_to_sec( #t ) second;
However this truncates the microseconds.
I agree with Muki - be sure to take account of time zones and daylight savings time!
