sometime it works, but sometime doesnt for
" mysql now() Incorrect datetime value for column "
There's an insidious problem doing simple maths using now() ... subtraction of seconds and minutes etc are based on 100 seconds in a minute, and 100 minutes in an hour ...
so, you need to be do something more like:
select now(); select now() -INTERVAL 10 SECOND;
and that's how to solver the problem.
