Cant get datetime formatting right

I don't know why but I always seem to have trouble formatting dates with strptime. I really can't see where I am going wrong here but this is the error I got...

time data '2021-04-10 18:00:00' does not match format '%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S.'

I appreciate any help you can give.

    weatherDate = datetime.datetime.strptime(date, '%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S')

It does work here:

import datetime

date_str = '2021-04-10 18:00:00'
date = datetime.datetime.strptime(date_str, '%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S')

Which gives:

>>> date
datetime.datetime(2021, 4, 10, 18, 0)
