Hello there, I have table with a field :dayTime, :utc_datetime and I use Timex to convert the string that I take to a datetime, for example I have a string "29/02/2016 22:55:00" I parse it to ~U[2016-02-29 22:25:00Z] after doing some work then passing it to Timex.parse/2. My problem is when I try to create a new instance and save it to the database I get this error
errors: [dayTime: {"is invalid", [type: :utc_datetime, validation: :cast]}],
data: #App.Context.Schema
valid?: false
what am I doing wrong?
Thanks in advance.

Hi @aligredo,
Could you show an example of breaking code with:
Also let us know what version of Ecto & related projects (i.e. ecto_sql & postgrex) you are using (maybe just put the contents of mix.exs up).
Also, I note that the date you supply is 29th Feb 2016 which is valid because 2016 was a leap year. Out of interest, have you tried a different date just to help try to isolate the problem. There may be some date validation bug lurking in there, although I followed the code down to the days in month check for 2016 and it seems ok:
FWIW - I have utc_datetime datatypes working fine

turns out that I was doing something wrong after conversion that caused that error, I fixed it.
Thank you for your time <3
