Description: In using a date in the format of "28 Apr 2016 16:39:46", I have discovered that the check MySQL performs for a trigger on the argument results in a null value. Example trigger: CREATE DEFINER=`xxxxx`@`%` TRIGGER `<trigger_name>` BEFORE INSERT ON `<table_name>` FOR EACH ROW SET NEW.timestamp = STR_TO_DATE('NEW.timestamp', '%d %b %Y %H:%i:%S'), NEW.Id = UUID(); How to repeat: Create a table with field defined as datetime. Create a trigger similar to that in the description. Suggested fix: I have created a workaround for the time being which is the use a tmp field, perform the str_to_date function on the value, then use the new value for NEW.timestamp.
