title: php ORA-01861: literal does not match format string
body: <p>I'm writing a php script to insert data into an Oracle database, and I'm getting ORA-01861: literal does not match format string  when I try to run it. It has something to do with the date and they way it's calculated, but I'm not sure how/where to fix it. In the table, the log_date is type date. Below is the section of code that I'm working with for the date after I've already established the db connection. Does it need to go in my $query definition?</p>
  
  <pre><code>$ticks = $mnemonic-&gt;timestamp . "\n";
  $seconds = ($ticks - 621355968000000000) / 10000000;
  $day = date("Y-m-d H:i:s", $seconds);
  
  $query = "INSERT into TLM_Item(log_date) Values('$day')";
  
  $updt = ociparse($conn, $query);
      if(!$updt){
      print "No query \n";
      exit;
      }
  
      $r = ociexecute($updt , OCI_COMMIT_ON_SUCCESS);
  </code></pre>
