无法在基于Spring Hibernate注释的配置中获取JDBC连接

Question

I have spring java based configuration.

HibernateConfiguration

package com.app.surveyapp.configuration;

import java.util.Properties;
import javax.sql.DataSource;
import org.apache.log4j.Logger;
import org.springframework.beans.factory.annotation.Autowired;
import org.springframework.context.annotation.Bean;
import org.springframework.context.annotation.ComponentScan;
import org.springframework.context.annotation.Configuration;
import org.springframework.context.annotation.PropertySource;
import org.springframework.core.env.Environment;
import org.springframework.jdbc.datasource.DriverManagerDataSource;
import org.springframework.orm.hibernate5.LocalSessionFactoryBean;

@Configuration
@ComponentScan({ "com.app.surveyapp.configuration" })
@PropertySource(value = { "classpath:application.properties" })
public class HibernateConfiguration {

    private static final Logger logger = Logger.getLogger(HibernateConfiguration.class);

    @Autowired
    private Environment environment;

    @Bean
    public LocalSessionFactoryBean sessionFactory() {
        LocalSessionFactoryBean sessionFactory = new LocalSessionFactoryBean();
        sessionFactory.setDataSource(dataSource());
        sessionFactory.setPackagesToScan(new String[] { "com.app.surveyapp.models" });
        sessionFactory.setHibernateProperties(hibernateProperties());
        return sessionFactory;
     }

    @Bean
    public DataSource dataSource() {
        DriverManagerDataSource dataSource = new DriverManagerDataSource();
        dataSource.setDriverClassName(environment.getRequiredProperty("jdbc.driverClassName"));
        dataSource.setUrl(environment.getRequiredProperty("jdbc.url"));
        dataSource.setUsername(environment.getRequiredProperty("jdbc.username"));
        dataSource.setPassword(environment.getRequiredProperty("jdbc.password"));
        return dataSource;
    }

    private Properties hibernateProperties() {
        Properties properties = new Properties();
        properties.put("hibernate.dialect", environment.getRequiredProperty("hibernate.dialect"));
        properties.put("hibernate.show_sql", environment.getRequiredProperty("hibernate.show_sql"));
        properties.put("hibernate.format_sql", environment.getRequiredProperty("hibernate.format_sql"));
        properties.put("hbm2ddl.auto", environment.getRequiredProperty("hbm2ddl.auto"));
        return properties;        
    }
}

DAO

@Repository
public class UserDao implements IUserDao {

    private static Logger logger = Logger.getLogger(User.class);

    @Autowired
    private SessionFactory sessionFactory;

    @Override
    public User create(User user) {
        Session session = sessionFactory.openSession();
        Transaction tx = session.beginTransaction();
        Long id = (Long) session.save(user);
        tx.commit();
        session.close();

        return findById(id);
    }
}

I am trying to execute create() which is present in DAO file. but at the time of execution i am getting error at Transaction tx = session.beginTransaction(); . below is the exception i am getting

Answer 1

Posting this for completeness and clarification of the question, in case others run into this problem (basically a recap of the comments above).

The DB being used was MySQL 8.0 and the problem was caused by an outdated mysql-connector-java . As suggested in this answer, the solution was to update the connector.

Answer 2

It seems as if the Character-Set of your database and you java application are somehow not compatible. It seems to be a known issue with MySQL, as you may see here: java.sql.SQLException: Unknown initial character set index '255' received from server for connector 8.0.11

But there are probably similar issues with other DBMS as well.

In Addition you may change the characterEncoding "java-side" as you can see in the stacktrace:

Caused by: java.sql.SQLException: Unknown initial character set index '255' received from server. Initial client character set can be forced via the 'characterEncoding' property.
