JDBC: complains about invalid sign but seems fine

Question

I have to use JDBC to write to a database (hibernate/ibatis is not an option) and my database is Oracle 11g.

I create the following query: insert into user(user_id

Answer 1

TO_TIMESTAMP('14/12/2010 15/09/46', 'DD/MM/RR HH24/MI/SS')

You send a 4-digit year but the format string defines a 2-digit year (no century)

Give this a try:

insertQuery.append("', 'DD/MM/RRRR HH24/MI/SS'));");
