Error during testing for MySQL/MariaDB JDBC driver bug

Question

I have been trying to integrate Liquibase 3.6.3 with spring boot 2.1.5.RELEASE application and I am getting this error when running the application.

My Configuration is as follows;

    outputChangeLogFile=src/main/resources/config/db/db.changelog-master.xml
    driver = com.mysql.cj.jdbc.Driver
    url=jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/<dbname>?useUnicode=true&useJDBCCompliantTimezoneShift=true&useLegacyDatetimeCode=false&useTimezone=true&serverTimezone=UTC
    username = <username>
    password = <password>

Also adding the master change log file

 <?xml version="1.1" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="no"?>
 <databaseChangeLog xmlns="http://www.liquibase.org/xml/ns/dbchangelog" xmlns:ext="http://www.liquibase.org/xml/ns/dbchangelog-ext" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.liquibase.org/xml/ns/dbchangelog-ext http://www.liquibase.org/xml/ns/dbchangelog/dbchangelog-ext.xsd http://www.liquibase.org/xml/ns/dbchangelog http://www.liquibase.org/xml/ns/dbchangelog/dbchangelog-3.6.xsd">

<include file="classpath:config/db/changelog/db.changelog-1.1.xml" relativeToChangelogFile="false"/>

I tried to change the version to 3.5.3 then spring is giving the error

***************************
APPLICATION FAILED TO START

Description:

An attempt was made to call a method that does not exist. The attempt was made from the following location:
org.springframework.boot.autoconfigure.liquibase.LiquibaseAutoConfiguration$LiquibaseConfiguration.liquibase(LiquibaseAutoConfiguration.java:127)

The following method did not exist:

liquibase.integration.spring.SpringLiquibase.setLiquibaseSchema(Ljava/lang/String;)V

The method's class, liquibase.integration.spring.SpringLiquibase, is available from the following locations:

jar:file:/C:/Users/<user>/.m2/repository/org/liquibase/liquibase-core/3.5.3/liquibase-core-3.5.3.jar!/liquibase/integration/spring/SpringLiquibase.class

It was loaded from the following location:

file:/C:/Users/<user>/.m2/repository/org/liquibase/liquibase-core/3.5.3/liquibase-core-3.5.3.jar


 Action:

 Correct the classpath of your application so that it contains a single, compatible version of liquibase.integration.spring.SpringLiquibase

Is this a bug? How can I resolve this issue?

NOTE : liquibase-maven-plugin:3.5.3:update using

mvn: liquibase:update

helped me generate the tables. I used

liquibase-maven-plugin:3.5.3

for generating it. Still do not know why 3.6.3 giving the error.

Answer 1

The problem may be that your MySQL instance runs with MyISAM as default storage engine.

In releases 3.6.x and 3.7.x, Liquibase tries to create a temporary table to check a jdbc driver bug. If it is created with MyISAM engine, the constraints of this table are then deferrable. Liquibase converts this into a "driver bug" error (their method is even named hasBugJdbcConstraintsDeferrable).

To solve the problem :

Set InnoDb as default storage engine to avoid the problem

Or downgrade liquibase to 3.5.x

Or upgrade Liquibase to future 4.0.x (not yet released).
