I believe the issue is in your date format format string (yyyy-MM-DD). According to the Joda Time docs[1], "D" is the format specifier for day of year (and not day of month). If you use the format string "yyyy-MM-dd", things should work fine (similar to what you saw in your last example above). - Gabriel 1. http://www.joda.org/joda-time/apidocs/org/joda/time/format/DateTimeFormat.html On Mon, Jun 22, 2015 at 5:07 PM Michael McAllister <mmcallis...@homeaway.com<mailto:mmcallis...@homeaway.com>> wrote: Hi everyone New user, first time post. I have a question about the TO_DATE function seeming to misbehave. I issue the following SQL statement:- SELECT TO_DATE('2015-06-22','yyyy-MM-DD') FROM system.catalog LIMIT 1; I get the following response:- 2015-01-21 Similarly, when I issue the following SQL statement:- select TO_DATE('2015-05-12','yyyy-MM-DD') FROM system.catalog limit 1; I get the following response:- 2015-01-11 My issue is not with the day being returned - I understand what’s going on there. My issue is with the MONTH that’s being returned. Interestingly, things are OK if I issue the following SQL statement:- SELECT TO_DATE('22 Jun 2015','d MMM yyyy') FROM system.catalog limit 1; I get the following response:- 2015-06-21 Screenshot is attached. Phoenix version is 4.2 on HDP 2.2. Regards Mike <1__homeaway_asthad011____ssh_.png> <1__homeaway_asthad011____ssh_.png>
