java.text.ParseException: Unparseable date. "dd MMM yyyy HH:mm:ss" format [duplicate]

Getting error java.text.ParseException: Unparseable date: (at offset 0) even if the Simple date format and string value are identical
(4 answers)
Closed 1 year ago.
I am getting a parsing error with the following code
String time = "24 Apr 2021 11:56:44";
Date timeOnLine = new SimpleDateFormat("dd MMM yyyy HH:mm:ss").parse(time);
Exception:
java.text.ParseException: Unparseable date: "24 Apr 2021 11:56:44"
I am not sure what the problem is since the pattern seems to correspond with the string correctly.
Any advice on how to solve would be greatly appreciated!

Try with:
String time = "24 Apr 2021 11:56:44";
Date timeOnLine = new SimpleDateFormat("dd MMM yyyy HH:mm:ss", Locale.US).parse(time);

How to convert a String AM/PM date to Timestamp in Java? [duplicate]

Java - Unparseable date

Closed 3 years ago.
I want to parse a date that includes AM/PM format from String to Timestamp.
Although when I try to parse this date:
Dec 31 2017 12:00AM
I get a
Exception in thread "main" java.text.ParseException: Unparseable date: "Dec 31 2017 12:00AM"
at java.text.DateFormat.parse(Unknown Source)
at test.DatteTest.main(DatteTest.java:16)
My code:
String endDate = "Dec 31 2017 12:00AM";
SimpleDateFormat dateFormat = new SimpleDateFormat("MMM dd yyyy hh:mmaa");
Date parsedDate = dateFormat.parse(endDate);
Timestamp timestamp = new Timestamp(parsedDate.getTime());
System.out.println(endDate);
System.out.println(timestamp);
Am I doing something wrong in the simpledateformat?
"MMM dd yyyy hh:mmaa"?

The input date contains a word in english. You have to give the locale :
SimpleDateFormat dateFormat = new SimpleDateFormat("MMM dd yyyy hh:mmaa", Locale.ENGLISH);

Simple date format reading month incorrectly [duplicate]

How to convert a String to a Date using SimpleDateFormat?

I am working with converting Date Strings to Epoch times then back again, but it seems like when I convert to Epoch the month is ignored when I parse the date String
String timeString = "15 Aug 2005 13:07:58.035";
Date dateTime = null;
SimpleDateFormat sdf = new SimpleDateFormat("DD MMM yyyy hh:mm:ss", Locale.US);
try {
dateTime = sdf.parse(timeString);
} catch (ParseException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
long convert = dateTime.getTime();
System.out.println(str);
System.out.println(convert);
Date epochToString = new Date(convert);
System.out.println(epochToString.toString());
Here is the output
15 Aug 2005 13:07:58.035
1105812478000
Sat Jan 15 13:07:58 EST 2005
When I calculated the epoch time by hand the date was indeed Jan 15 2005, so for some reason the MMM value is being ignored in my format.
Edit:
I should also note that I changed the format token to MM and tried a numerical representation in the string instead, but had the same exact results.

This is because DD means day in year. You want dd for day in month. See SimpleDateFormat Javadoc
I suggest you use HH for 24 hour time.

I want to convert a Date to a String but I have some problems. My code is this:
SimpleDateFormat formato = new SimpleDateFormat(
"EEE MMM dd HH:mm:ss z yyyy");
String hacer = "Fri Nov 01 10:30:02 PDT 2013";
Date test = null;
test = formato.parse( hacer);
System.out.println("prueba===>" + test);
But nothing something is wrong eclipse shows me this error:
Unparseable date: "Fri Nov 01 10:30:02 PDT 2013"
at java.text.DateFormat.parse(Unknown Source)
some help?

Probably your default locale doesn't support English months in MMM. For example in Poland MMM supports "styczeń" but not "Jan" or "January"
To change this In SimpleDateFormat you need to set locale which supports months written in English, for example
new SimpleDateFormat("EEE MMM dd HH:mm:ss z yyyy", Locale.ENGLISH);

How to convert a date String to a Date or Calendar object?
How can I convert "16 Nov 2011 08:00" to a Date object? I tried SimpleDateFormat but does not works, I get
java.text.ParseException: Unparseable date: "16 Nov 2011 08:00"
or will I have to split the string enter slashes and then give it a try ?

You problem with the SimpleDateFormat was probably an incorrect format string.
Here is the correct way:
DateFormat formatter = new SimpleDateFormat( "dd MMM yyyy HH:mm" );
Date date = formatter.parse( "16 Nov 2011 08:00" );

You will need to use SimpleDateFormat to set a date format then use .parse(String s) to convert your String to a Date, here's an example:
DateFormat format = new SimpleDateFormat("dd MMM yyyy HH:mm");
String theDateString = "16 Nov 2011 08:00";
Date myDate = format.parse(theDateString);
