Hello

You can use

str = StringReplace["04/Dec/2007:19:23:12", {StringExpression[day__,
"/", month__, "/", year__, ":", hour__, ":", min__, ":", sec__] :>
{day, month, year, hour, min, sec}}]
expr = ToExpression[str[[1]]]

If you also want to replace Jan by 1, ..., Dec by 12 you can add

expr /. {Jan -> 1, Dec -> 12}
