It's working if I introduce the sql command directly in the shell...
CREATE TABLE "statistic" (
"Id" int4 NOT NULL,
"DATE" timestamp without time zone);
One thing good, but I just realize That my problem isn't coming of the time
zone
BUT of the precision...
EXAMPLE:
If I want know the number of day between two date ($lastdate -
$firstdate)...
Value of firstdate = 2002-05-31 12:27:05.121201
Value of lastdate = 2002-06-04 12:29:25.147232
$oneday = 60*60*24*1;
$number_day_between_two_date = intval(( strtotime($lastdate) -
strtotime($firstdate) )/$oneday);
I did that and It' was working without problem before the upgrate of
postgres (Postgres 7.1 - Postgres 7.2.1)
Someone have a idea... What I can do to know the number of day between two
date...
