Can anyone help to explain what is this mean

"Cannot insert a non-null value into a timestamp column. Use INSERT with a column list or with a default of NULL for the timestamp column."

Thanks .

You have a timestamp column you are trying to insert into. Where you are doing an insert into <tablename>, you need to either provide a column list on the select you are using to insert into or change the table to accept NULLs on this column.

The reason is you cant insert an explicit value for timestamp column. The value is autopopulated by system for each dml operation like insert/update. so what you need is to exclude that column in select/insert list or pass a default value of NULL for timestamp.
