SpringBoot - Flyway - JPA integration — Error creating bean with name 'flywayInitializer' - Unknown table 'events' in information_schema

Question

I am integrating my Spring Boot Application with Flyway using JPA and MySql as database.

Git Source - https://github.com/codethinker09/codeExamples.git

Project - flywaydemo

application.properties

spring.datasource.url=jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/spring-jpa-flyway?autoReconnect=true&zeroDateTimeBehavior=convertToNull
spring.jpa.hibernate.ddl-auto=validate
spring.jpa.properties.hibernate.dialect = org.hibernate.dialect.MySQL5Dialect
spring.datasource.username = root
spring.datasource.password = root123
spring.datasource.driver-class-name=com.mysql.jdbc.Driver

flyway.password = root123
flyway.url= jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/spring-flyway?autoReconnect=true&zeroDateTimeBehavior=convertToNull
flyway.user = root
flyway.enabled=true

gradle

buildscript {
    ext {
        springBootVersion = '1.5.10.RELEASE'
    }
    repositories {
        mavenCentral()
    }
    dependencies {
        classpath("org.springframework.boot:spring-boot-gradle-plugin:${springBootVersion}")
    }
}

apply plugin: 'java'
apply plugin: 'eclipse'
apply plugin: 'org.springframework.boot'

group = 'com.boot.flyway'
version = '0.0.1-SNAPSHOT'
sourceCompatibility = 1.8

repositories {
    mavenCentral()
}


dependencies {
    compile('org.springframework.boot:spring-boot-starter-data-jpa')
    compile('org.springframework.boot:spring-boot-starter-data-rest')
    compile('org.springframework.boot:spring-boot-starter-web')
    compile('org.flywaydb:flyway-core')
    runtime('mysql:mysql-connector-java')
    testCompile('org.springframework.boot:spring-boot-starter-test')
}

i have already created 2 database manually in my MySql Db table snapshot -

I am not able to resolve this exception, search everywhere. Am i missing any configuration related to Flyway.

Answer 1

You are using mysql-connector newer than your MySQL server and the connector expects it to have the Events feature introduced in MySQL 5.1 . That's why it cannot find the events table:

Unknown table 'events' in information_schema

You should probably upgrade your MySQL server (version 5.0 is very old). As Axel Fontaine mentioned in his answer, Flyway requires MySQL 5.1 or newer.

Answer 2

如Flyway网站上所述 ，Flyway仅支持MySQL 5.1和更高版本。
