So i do a simple query like so:
connection.query("UPDATE workers SET timestamp='"+thedate+"' WHERE id = " + id,function(err,upres){
connection.release();
if(!err) {
console.log('updated record')
console.log(upres);
}
})
console.log reveals the data format as: 2015-04-02 19:29:14
And if i debug the SQL statement, that turns out to be:
UPDATE workers SET timestamp='2015-04-02 21:31:16' WHERE id = 3;
However, when i list the data, the output is:
[{"id":3,"worker":"John Doe","timestamp":"2015-04-01T22:00:00.000Z","duration":30}]
This is way off compared to the time that is being reported?
What is causing this?
You do not know how MySQL is turning your VARCHAR into a date. There are a lot of configuration options. It would be better to use the STR_TO_DATE function to circumvent all of the assumptions. Here is a link to the docs for STR_TO_DATE().
As a side note, I would strongly recommend using prepared statements as a way to safeguard your application against errors and sql injection.
EDITS:
In regards to your questions, the column could be DATETIME, but your value you are assigning is a VARCHAR
'UPDATE workers SET timestamp = ? WHERE id = ?', ['4/2/2015 3:00:00 PM', 3'], [callBackFunction]
Based on what you said about the conversion not working, I am suspicious about the data type for the timestamp column.
SELECT * FROM INFORMATION_SCHEMA.COLUMNS WHERE NAME = 'workers'
A statement like that should give you all of the information about that column. You could also find this in a GUI, if you have access. There are three different date types in MySQL date, datetime, or timestamp. This is most likely a DATE column, that will not be able to hold the time.

I have a database table containing dates
(`date` timestamp NOT NULL DEFAULT '0000-00-00 00:00:00').
I'm using MySQL. From the program sometimes data is passed without the date to the database. So, the date value is auto assigned to 0000-00-00 00:00:00
when the table data is called with the date column it gives error
...'0000-00-00 00:00:00' can not be represented as java.sql.Timestamp.......
I tried to pass null value to the date when inserting data, but it gets assign to the current time.
Is there any way I can get the ResultSet without changing the table structure?
You can use this JDBC URL directly in your data source configuration:
jdbc:mysql://yourserver:3306/yourdatabase?zeroDateTimeBehavior=convertToNull
Whether or not the "date" '0000-00-00" is a valid "date" is irrelevant to the question.
"Just change the database" is seldom a viable solution.
Facts:
MySQL allows a date with the value of zeros.
This "feature" enjoys widespread use with other languages.
So, if I "just change the database", thousands of lines of PHP code will break.
Java programmers need to accept the MySQL zero-date and they need to put a zero date back into the database, when other languages rely on this "feature".
A programmer connecting to MySQL needs to handle null and 0000-00-00 as well as valid dates. Changing 0000-00-00 to null is not a viable option, because then you can no longer determine if the date was expected to be 0000-00-00 for writing back to the database.
For 0000-00-00, I suggest checking the date value as a string, then changing it to ("y",1), or ("yyyy-MM-dd",0001-01-01), or into any invalid MySQL date (less than year 1000, iirc). MySQL has another "feature": low dates are automatically converted to 0000-00-00.
I realize my suggestion is a kludge. But so is MySQL's date handling.
And two kludges don't make it right. The fact of the matter is, many programmers will have to handle MySQL zero-dates forever.
Append the following statement to the JDBC-mysql protocol:
?zeroDateTimeBehavior=convertToNull&autoReconnect=true&characterEncoding=UTF-8&characterSetResults=UTF-8
for example:
jdbc:mysql://localhost/infra?zeroDateTimeBehavior=convertToNull&autoReconnect=true&characterEncoding=UTF-8&characterSetResults=UTF-8
Instead of using fake dates like 0000-00-00 00:00:00 or 0001-01-01 00:00:00 (the latter should be accepted as it is a valid date), change your database schema, to allow NULL values.
ALTER TABLE table_name MODIFY COLUMN date TIMESTAMP NULL
As an exteme turnaround, when you cannot do an alter to your date column or to update the values, or while these modifications take place, you can do a select using a case/when.
SELECT CASE ModificationDate WHEN '0000-00-00 00:00:00' THEN '1970-01-01 01:00:00' ELSE ModificationDate END AS ModificationDate FROM Project WHERE projectId=1;
you can try like This
ArrayList<String> dtlst = new ArrayList<String>();
String qry1 = "select dt_tracker from gs";
Statement prepst = conn.createStatement();
ResultSet rst = prepst.executeQuery(qry1);
while(rst.next())
{
String dt = "";
try
{
dt = rst.getDate("dt_tracker")+" "+rst.getTime("dt_tracker");
}
catch(Exception e)
{
dt = "0000-00-00 00:00:00";
}
dtlst.add(dt);
}
I wrestled with this problem and implemented the URL concatenation solution contributed by #Kushan in the accepted answer above. It worked in my local MySql instance. But when I deployed my Play/Scala app to Heroku it no longer would work. Heroku also concatenates several args to the DB URL that they provide users, and this solution, because of Heroku's use concatenation of "?" before their own set of args, will not work. However I found a different solution which seems to work equally well.
SET sql_mode = 'NO_ZERO_DATE';
I put this in my table descriptions and it solved the problem of
'0000-00-00 00:00:00' can not be represented as java.sql.Timestamp
There was no year 0000 and there is no month 00 or day 00. I suggest you try
0001-01-01 00:00:00
While a year 0 has been defined in some standards, it is more likely to be confusing than useful IMHO.
just cast the field as char
Eg: cast(updatedate) as char as updatedate
I know this is going to be a late answer, however here is the most correct answer.
In MySQL database, change your timestamp default value into CURRENT_TIMESTAMP. If you have old records with the fake value, you will have to manually fix them.
You can remove the "not null" property from your column in mysql table if not necessary. when you remove "not null" property no need for "0000-00-00 00:00:00" conversion and problem is gone.
At least worked for me.
I believe this is help full for who are getting this below Exception on to pumping data through logstash

or if you are working with mysql
I have a mySQL database table t1 with a bigint field called filter which I need to 'and' to a given query parameter in order to filter out entries.
table t1:
filter bigint unsigned
info varchar(200)
As a pure mySQL statement my query would be this:
SELECT info FROM t1 WHERE (filter & 34603933) = filter;
Of course the number 34603933 is a parameter and changes from query to query.
The question is, if loopbackjs supports such a calculus in the where condition. Can someone point me the way, or if it is not possible suggest a workaround?
In the documentation http://docs.strongloop.com/display/public/LB/Where+filter I did not see a possibility to do this, but somehow I can't really believe it, since using references to columns values in the right side of a where comparison is nothing unusual, right?
I do not believe loopback has this support built-in and bitwise and operations are not that widespread (in my experience). You might try the raw SQL interface:
var mysqlDS = app.dataSources.mysqlDS;
var bitWiseAndValue = 34603933;
mysqlDS.connector.query('SELECT info FROM t1 WHERE (filter & '+bitWiseAndValue+') = filter', function(err) {
if (err) {return console.log(err);}
// success actions
});
My purpose is since the time I login my page, I want my web to show how many updated data in the database. My code is like this
$current = $_SESSION['date'];
$query2 = "SELECT * FROM gmaptracker1 WHERE datetime >= '$current'";
When I echo the $current, it showed 27/09/14 : 06:53:24, so the $current is correct, however, when I request the number of database where date>='$current', I get zero, although I have inserted to the database the data with datetime 28/09/14 : 06:53:24 and 29/09/14 : 06:53:24.
Can anyone help me to get out of this, please?
Few things,
It seems like your code is vulnerable to SQL Injection. Just because you retrieve the content of the date from a session, it doesn't mean that it's safe.
Also, why do you need it to be in a session variable? If you always want to retrieve dates bigger than NOW() you can just write your query this way:
SELECT * FROM gmaptracker1 WHERE datetime >= NOW()
The part that caught my attention was the format you're storing the dates.
You said that when you echo'ed $_SESSION['date'] the value was: 27/09/14 : 06:53:24
Now, that does not look like the date format at all. Is your column actually a datetime or timestampcolumn?
If it's a VARCHAR or any other type other than datetime or timestamp, then there's no way for MySQL to know that you're trying to retrieve dates that occur in the future.
If you already have data stored, then it isn't going to be as easy as changing the data type because you already have data, and your data is in the wrong format. The format that MySQL stores datetime information is as follows:
YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM:SS
Based on the comments you left, you don't need the time > NOW(), you need the time when you log in. Now it makes sense why you're storing that time in a variable.
The problem is the format you're storing it.
Since you're using PHP, then you have to store the time this way:
$time = new DateTime();
$_SESSION['date'] = $time->format("Y-m-d H:i:s");
Assuming that all values of MBR_DTH_DT evaluate to a Date data type other than the value '00000000', could the following UPDATE SQL fail when running on multiple processors if the CAST were performed before the filter by racing threads?
UPDATE a
SET a.[MBR_DTH_DT] = cast(a.[MBR_DTH_DT] as date)
FROM [IPDP_MEMBER_DEMOGRAPHIC_DECBR] a
WHERE a.[MBR_DTH_DT] <> '00000000'
I am trying to find the source of the following error
Error: 2014-01-30 04:42:47.67
Code: 0xC002F210
Source: Execute csp_load_ipdp_member_demographic Execute SQL Task
Description: Executing the query "exec dbo.csp_load_ipdp_member_demographic" failed with the following error: "Conversion failed when converting date and/or time from character string.". Possible failure reasons: Problems with the query, "ResultSet" property not set correctly, parameters not set correctly, or connection not established correctly.
End Error
It could be another UPDATE or INSERT query, but the otehrs in question appear to have data that is proeprly typed from what I see,, so I am left onbly with the above.
No, it simply sounds like you have bad data in the MBR_DTH_DT column, which is VARCHAR but should be a date (once you clean out the bad data).
You can identify those rows using:
SELECT MBR_DTH_DT
FROM dbo.IPDP_MEMBER_DEMOGRAPHIC_DECBR
WHERE ISDATE(MBR_DTH_DT) = 0;
Now, you may only get rows that happen to match the where clause you're using to filter (e.g. MBR_DTH_DT = '00000000').
This has nothing to do with multiple processors, race conditions, etc. It's just that SQL Server can try to perform the cast before it applies the filter.
Randy suggests adding an additional clause, but this is not enough, because the CAST can still happen before any/all filters. You usually work around this by something like this (though it makes absolutely no sense in your case, when everything is the same column):
UPDATE dbo.IPDP_MEMBER_DEMOGRAPHIC_DECBR
SET MBR_DTH_DT = CASE
WHEN ISDATE(MBR_DTH_DT) = 1 THEN CAST(MBR_DTH_DT AS DATE)
ELSE MBR_DTH_DT END
WHERE MBR_DTH_DT <> '00000000';
(I'm not sure why in the question you're using UPDATE alias FROM table AS alias syntax; with a single-table update, this only serves to make the syntax more convoluted.)
However, in this case, this does you absolutely no good; since the target column is a string, you're just trying to convert a string to a date and back to a string again.
The real solution: stop using strings to store dates, and stop using token strings like '00000000' to denote that a date isn't available. Either use a dimension table for your dates or just live with NULL already.
Not likely. Even with multiple processors, there is no guarantee the query will processed in parallel.
Why not try something like this, assuming you're using SQL Server 2012. Even if you're not, you could write a UDF to validate a date like this.
UPDATE a
SET a.[MBR_DTH_DT] = cast(a.[MBR_DTH_DT] as date)
FROM [IPDP_MEMBER_DEMOGRAPHIC_DECBR] a
WHERE a.[MBR_DTH_DT] <> '00000000' And IsDate(MBR_DTH_DT) = 1
Most likely you have bad data are are not aware of it.
Whoops, just checked. IsDate has been available since SQL 2005. So try using it.
How I can find out the changes happened in database like modifying functions, table indexes, procedures and adding or removing columns.
Here in this query
select * from sys.objects
where type IS NOT NULL
and modify_date between '2013-07-21' and '2013-07-29'
but here I am getting created objects list and modifying list, but if I deleted any object it is not showing anything.
How can I get the all the changes happened in database between specific dates?
Try a source control solution for SQL. I've used RedGate's SQL Source Control before, and it records a history of changes like this, including who made the change, and what was changed.
http://www.red-gate.com/products/sql-development/sql-source-control/
It's a bit expensive, but it's good. I don't know if there's a way to do it (especially deletions) just with SQL itself.
Many of these incidents are recorded in the default trace.
DECLARE #path NVARCHAR(260);
SELECT
#path = REVERSE(SUBSTRING(REVERSE([path]),
CHARINDEX(CHAR(92), REVERSE([path])), 260)) + N'log.trc'
FROM sys.traces
WHERE is_default = 1;
SELECT
LoginName,
HostName,
StartTime,
ObjectName,
TextData -- may or may not be populated
FROM sys.fn_trace_gettable(#path, DEFAULT)
WHERE EventClass IN
(
164, -- object:altered
46, -- object:created
47 -- object:deleted
)
AND StartTime >= '20130721' AND StartTime < '20130730';
Why you should never use BETWEEN for date range queries.
