ORA-01843 not a valid month

I create a table member with 8 fields, with idMember as primaryKey. Two among these fields is the field's date_of_birth and date_back that have same type, date.
But when I insert data into it, appears an error like this -> ORA-01843 not a valid month.
Previously when I didn't include a date field again, successfully. However when I include it, writing error ORA-01843 not a valid month.

I give the insert command like this:
insert into member values ('M102019', 'Adhe Nurcahya',.., to_date ('28-May-1992 ',' DD-MON-YYYY'),..., .. , to_date ('12-dec-2011 ',' DD-MON-YYYY '));

Anyone know why is this possible?
I'm confused, is there because in a record to_date there should be no more than 1??
Thank's..

Hi,

you should be able to insert two date fields in one insert statement.
Perhaps the order of your table fields is not matching up with the order you have in the insert statement?
Try specifying your columns to be sure. It should look like this then:

Code:

 

INSERT INTO member(column1, column2, column5, column8)

VALUES ('M102019', 'Adhe Nurcahya',to_date ('28-May-1992 ',' DD-MON-YYYY'),to_date ('12-dec-2011 ',' DD-MON-YYYY '));
