Unable to Parse String Date to Timestamp in java

Question

My Date format Example = "jan 14, 2015" Now I convert this string date to Timestamp But this Code Throws ParseException.

format = new SimpleDateFormat("MMM dd, yyyy HH:mm:ss", Locale.ENGLISH);

     try {

          format.setTimeZone(TimeZone.getTimeZone("Asia/Bangladesh"));
          Date date = format.parse(str_date);
          Timestamp timeStampDate = new java.sql.Timestamp(date.getTime());

          return timeStampDate;
        } catch (ParseException e) {
          e.getCause().printStackTrace();
          return null;
        }

So How can I Solve this Exception??? Thanks in Advance.

Well yes, look at the string you've got vs the format you're specifying... where are the hour/minute/second values? — Jon Skeet, Oct 24 '16 at 07:21
Can you show us the whole code? Is there a difference between `format` and `formatter` or where is the last one defined? What is `str_date`? What's the text of the printed `ParseException`? — Niklas P, Oct 24 '16 at 07:23

change your pattern to: format = new SimpleDateFormat("MMM dd, yyyy", Locale.ENGLISH); because you do not have a time part
