I am not able to run my Spring Boot application, because there is an issue with JPA. But I am not able to find the problem and resolve it. I searched for a solution on several stack overflow topics, but not even one solution was helpful for me. I defined the following model:
package xyz.blackmonster.window.models; import java.util.List; import javax.persistence.CascadeType; import javax.persistence.Column; import javax.persistence.Entity; import javax.persistence.FetchType; import javax.persistence.GeneratedValue; import javax.persistence.Id; import javax.persistence.OneToMany; import javax.persistence.OneToOne; import org.hibernate.annotations.GenericGenerator; /** * Window order */ @Entity public class Order { @Id @GeneratedValue(generator = "system-uuid") @GenericGenerator(name = "system-uuid", strategy = "uuid2") private String uuid; @OneToMany(fetch = FetchType.EAGER, mappedBy = "order", cascade = CascadeType.ALL) private List<Window> windows; @OneToOne(fetch = FetchType.EAGER, mappedBy = "order", cascade = CascadeType.ALL) private Service service; @OneToOne(fetch = FetchType.EAGER, mappedBy = "order", cascade = CascadeType.ALL) private Cost cost; @Column(name = "email") private String email; public String getUuid() { return uuid; } public void setUuid(String uuid) { this.uuid = uuid; } public List<Window> getWindows() { return windows; } public void setWindows(List<Window> windows) { this.windows = windows; } public Service getService() { return service; } public void setService(Service service) { this.service = service; } public Cost getCost() { return cost; } public void setCost(Cost cost) { this.cost = cost; } public String getEmail() { return email; } public void setEmail(String email) { this.email = email; } } As you can see, the entity uses the right import (javax.persistence.Entity). I am pointing this out, because this was one of the solutions I came across.
I also defined the interface for the repository as follows:
package xyz.blackmonster.window.repositories; import org.springframework.data.jpa.repository.JpaRepository; import xyz.blackmonster.window.models.Order; public interface OrderRepository extends JpaRepository<Order, String> { } As you can see, the OrderRepository class does not have the @Repository annotation as many examples by googling show.
Several solutions pointed out that the application class needs two additional annotations to find the repositories and scan for entities, since the application class is in package xyz.blackmonster.window.app and the entities are in xyz.blackmonster.window.models:
package xyz.blackmonster.window.app; import org.springframework.boot.SpringApplication; import org.springframework.boot.autoconfigure.SpringBootApplication; import org.springframework.boot.autoconfigure.domain.EntityScan; import org.springframework.context.annotation.ComponentScan; import org.springframework.data.jpa.repository.config.EnableJpaRepositories; @SpringBootApplication @ComponentScan("xyz.blackmonster.window") @EnableJpaRepositories("xyz.blackmonster.window.repositories") @EntityScan("xyz.blackmonster.window.repositories") public class WindowAppApplication { public static void main(String[] args) { SpringApplication.run(WindowAppApplication.class, args); } } I have both the @EnableJpaRepositories("xyz.blackmonster.window.repositories") and @EntityScan("xyz.blackmonster.window.repositories") set. Even having all this configuration set, running Spring Boot fails. I get the following stack trace:

@SpringBootApplicationannotation on theWindowAppApplication. Move it to the top level package of your application, in this casexyz.blackmonster.window(as recommended by the Spring Boot team!) and restart your application.
