I am parsing feeds using feedparser and I am trying to store updated or updated_parsed attributes of feeds in Django db. But it shows an error as [u'Enter a valid date/time in YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM[:ss[.uuuuuu]] format.'] Please tell me how to convert updated and updated_parsed such that it can be stored in the Django db such that I can (convert and reuse) or just reuse the date stored in db while parsing in this way: feedparser.parse("url", modified = lastupdate)
