The following is my User class:

@Entity
@Table(name = "users")
public class User {
    
    @Id
    @GeneratedValue(strategy = GenerationType.AUTO) 
    @Column (name="user_id")
    private Integer id;
    
    @Column(nullable = false, unique = true) 
    private String userName;
    
    public User(Integer id, String userName) {
        this.id = id;
        this.userName = userName;
    }

    public Integer getId() {
        return id;
    }

    public void setId(Integer id) {
        this.id = id;
    }

    public String getUserName() {
        return userName;
    }

    public void setUserName(String userName) {
        this.userName = userName;
    }

    
}

Answer 1

Your User class should be in the models package according to the error message. Make sure it is.

eg

package models

@Entity
@Table(name = "users")
public class User {
    
    @Id
    @GeneratedValue(strategy = GenerationType.AUTO) 
    @Column (name="user_id")
    private Integer id;
    
    @Column(nullable = false, unique = true) 
    private String userName;
    
    public User(Integer id, String userName) {
        this.id = id;
        this.userName = userName;
    }

    public Integer getId() {
        return id;
    }

    public void setId(Integer id) {
        this.id = id;
    }

    public String getUserName() {
        return userName;
    }

    public void setUserName(String userName) {
        this.userName = userName;
    }    
}

Answer 2

You should declare on your configuration class path to your models(entities)

@EntityScan(basePackages = {
        "com.path.to.your.model",
        "com.path.to.your.another.model"})

from package

org.springframework.boot.autoconfigure.domain.EntityScan;
