My aim is to get this format for the time '5 minutes ago'. So I need
something like
select to_char(now()-'5 minutes','YYMMDDHH24MI')
but this doesn't work due to the missing type conv

the result:
ERROR: to_char/to_number(): not unique decimal poit
is right, because we have two to_char():
to_char(int, text)
Hi, this query gives different strange results:
select to_char(now()::abstime,'YYMMDDHH24MI');
I get e.g. a "backend closed the channel unexpectedly..." error with
successful or failed resetting attempt (indeterministic)
or
ERROR: to_char/to_number(): not unique decimal poit
or
