Error creating bean with name 'entityManagerFactory' caused by java.lang.IllegalStateException

Question

In the code I do not even use entityManagerFactory. I extend JPARepository and for creating the tables I have entities annotated with @Entity (using javax.persistence). But still I am getting these errors creating bean with name 'entityManagerFactory' -> caused by javax.persistence.PersistenceException -> Caused by: org.hibernate.exception.JDBCConnectionException -> Caused by: org.h2.jdbc.JdbcSQLNonTransientConnectionException -> Caused by: java.lang.IllegalStateException.

My application.properties contains:

spring.datasource.url=jdbc:h2:~/MetaVerseDB
spring.datasource.username=sa
spring.datasource.password=
spring.jpa.database-platform=org.hibernate.dialect.H2Dialect
spring.jpa.hibernate.ddl-auto=update

I have all the required dependencies, I tried everything from stackoverflow questions's answers and nothing helped. What can be the root cause of these errors?

Answer 1

This error indicates the incompatible version of h2database driver with added maven. try to use newer version in order to fix the problem. as an example I updated my h2 from 1.4.187 to 2.1.212 version.

Answer 2

As Simon mentioned, the problem comes from the MetaVerseDB file.

In case the file is not important, just delete it and start again. To find the file location, you can refer to this

In case your file is important, and you want to keep it to recover later, or if you want to make it fast to test, you can also rename it to MetaVerseDB123 or something else, the new file will be created for you.
