Found how to set the date format for DB conversion on the Rails side as
opposed to Oracle. It's good but it's not enough. I put the following in
overrides.rb:
module ActiveSupport #:nodoc:
module CoreExtensions #:nodoc:
module Date #:nodoc:
# Converting dates to formatted strings, times, and datetimes.
module Conversions
DATE_FORMATS[:db] = "%d-%b-%y"
end
end
end
end
This gives me , for Aug 13th 2010, 13-Aug-10. However, Oracle expects
12-AUG-10 (i.e. month all caps) and continues to reject the date on
save. Needless to say select continues to work mysteriously.
Need to figure out how to set NLS_DATE_FORMAT when the connection is
established.
