The following code just solved the problem:

java.util.Date dt = new java.util.Date();

java.text.SimpleDateFormat sdf = 
     new java.text.SimpleDateFormat("yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss");

String currentTime = sdf.format(dt);

This 'currentTime' was inserted into the column whose type was DateTime and it was successful.

Problem
