Java – cannot resolve datetime – illegal time due to time zone offset transition (Europe / Berlin)

Why can't I parse the following dates?

DateTime.parse("2015-03-29 02:35:00",DateTimeFormat.forPattern("yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss"));

result:

org.joda.time.IllegalInstantException: Cannot parse "2015-03-29 02:35:00": Illegal instant due to time zone offset transition (Europe/Berlin)

What's the problem? If I change the year to 2014-03-29 02:35:00, how it works!

Solution

As link explains:

You are referencing a date time that does not exist due to a daylight saving time change

The solution is to use parselocaldatetime
