Home -> Community -> Usenet -> c.d.o.server -> Convert Epoch (in milliseconds) to Date Format
Hello all,
Bear with me here, I'm a Unix Admin., not a DBA!
I have a query that returns a field with its corresponding timestamp of when it was created. The timestamp is returned in epoch format, measured in milliseconds. Is there a way to convert this into a normal date within Oracle?
For example:
SELECT server, createtime
FROM servers;
This gives me:
server1 | 1171391881904
I need the epoch in milliseconds to show a human readable date. I.e. something like YYYY-MM-DD hh:mm:ss or the like.
I appreciate any help,
Tom
