  • Use spring-data-jpa and autowire the entitymanager where you need it. Please in the future don't include overly long stack traces and full pom.xml files. Commented Feb 6, 2021 at 17:52

You are overriding Spring Boot's dependency management in your pom.xml by declaring versions on your Hibernate dependencies:

<dependency>
    <groupId>org.hibernate</groupId>
    <artifactId>hibernate-entitymanager</artifactId>
    <version>5.2.3.Final</version>
</dependency>
<dependency>
    <groupId>org.hibernate</groupId>
    <artifactId>hibernate-core</artifactId>
    <version>5.0.7.Final</version>
</dependency>

All of Hibernate's modules should have the same version and here you are mixing 5.2.3 and 5.0.7. Furthermore, Spring Boot 2.4.2 uses Hibernate 5.4 by default and Spring Framework 5.3 (which Spring Boot 2.4 builds upon) requires Hibernate 5.2 or later.

I would remove the versions from the two dependencies:

<dependency>
    <groupId>org.hibernate</groupId>
    <artifactId>hibernate-entitymanager</artifactId>
</dependency>
<dependency>
    <groupId>org.hibernate</groupId>
    <artifactId>hibernate-core</artifactId>
</dependency>

This will allow Spring Boot's dependency management to control their version, ensuring that each module has the same version and that the version is compatible with the version of Spring Framework that's being used.
