Spring JPA data removed after shutdown of application - java

i have an application thats build on Spring boot, using JPA repositories on HSQL database.
Problem is that while application is running, I create an entity,and it's persisted correctly to database(can be seen in database manager). But after application shutdown from eclipse, all data is removed;
Saving is performed like this
#Service
public class NotificationService {
#Autowired
private NotificationRepository notificationRepository;
public void notifyRefreshArticles(){
Notification notification = new Notification();
notification.setCreatedAt(LocalDateTime.now());
notification.setNotificationSeverity(NotificationSeverity.NORMAL);
notification.setNotificationType(NotificationType.REFRESH_ARTICLES);
notificationRepository.save(notification);
}
}
I pretty sure its configuration issue,but with spring boot basically only configuration that i have is this configuration file.
spring.datasource.driver-class-name=org.hsqldb.jdbc.JDBCDriver
spring.datasource.url=jdbc:hsqldb:hsql://localhost/rr_app_database
spring.datasource.username=XXXXXX
spring.datasource.password=XXXXXX
spring.datasource.show-sql=true

Do you have hbm2ddl text somewhere in your configuration properties. It should be set to update or none, apparently you might have create-drop.

Specify a local filename in application.properties data source URL:
spring.datasource.url=jdbc:hsqldb:file:/home/username/testedb
You can remove the spring.datasource.driver-class-name property as Spring Boot detects it by URL property.

Check the properties files if there exists a configuration line as below
spring.jpa.hibernate.ddl-auto=create
Just remove it or change to
spring.jpa.hibernate.ddl-auto=update

If you insert the data within a #Test, it's rolled back by default.
Your database might get dropped, if you restart the application, like LearningPhase suggested.
The insert is never really committed - because it's outside of an transaction or because an Exception is thrown and not handeled within the transaction.

Spring Batch initialize-schema always will throw error relation "batch_job_instance" already exists

I have a Spring Batch application which will be triggered and started by a Kubernetes CronJob once a day and do some operations.
So it is not needed, that the application will run the whole time and idle until the scheduler starts the job.
To initialize the spring batch schema
spring:
batch:
jdbc:
initialize-schema: always
is used.
By doing so, every time the application is triggered to run, the schema will be initialzed again. This is why I get an error in the database logs which says
[380] ERROR: relation "batch_job_instance" already exists
because the schema will be initialzed always.
I searched for another option than just always or never, but seems nothing else.
I'm using Spring Batch Version 4.3.6 and PostgreSQL.
The spring.batch.jdbc.initialize-schema=always property tells Spring Batch Auto configuration to create the schema everytime the application restarts. This property also silently sets continueOnError= true in the auto-configuration, so even if the error comes it will not fail the application.
You will not observe this behavior locally when with embedded database, if you have any other local DB running on either docker or on system it will throw the error.
It is advisable that in containerize deployment you should set the property to never and do schema creation for batch metadata tables manually.
You can get these DDL script from Spring Batch org/springframework/batch/core/migration package. You can add this to your migration script if you are using Flyway or Liuquibase, or in docker initialization script for your DB service in docker-compose.
Note: Reference Spring Doc here

Running Mongock on only one database in multidatabase Spring project

I have quite large legacy multi module Java Spring boot project which connects to one MySql database and two Mongo databases (lets say codebook and report).
I'm trying to setup Mongock to be able to do Mongo database migrations. I need it on only one Mongodb database (report).
I added Mongock dependencies and configuration class (MongockApplicationRunner, MongoTransactionManager) to report database.
When I run the application it gives me exception: Scan package for changeLogs is not set: use appropriate setter (exception from RunnerBuilderBase class).
I debugged it and found that Mongock is trying to set configuration for codebook database.
I created another Mongock configuration, this time for codebook database. Run the application. Mongock loads my new configuration for codebook, but then tries to set another configuration for codebook database which failes because of config.getChangeLogsScanPackage().isEmpty().
It seems that Mongock is always setting some default configuration on codebook database.
When I debug it Mongock loads first codebook configuration from my mongockApplicationRunner (line .buildApplicationRunner();). The second codebook configuration comes from MongockContextBase.applicationRunner and that configuration has empty MongockSpringConfiguration.migrationScanPackage.
Why is this default configuration appearing and how to stop it from loading?
My Spring boot is 2.2.13.RELEASE and Mongock is 5.0.24.
After a lot of wasted time I found that besides Mongock configuration on report database I was also doing autoconfiguration (#EnableMongock).
I had annotation #EnableMongock on my MongockConfig class. Since codebook mongo template had #Primary annotation autocofiguration was loading that database and there were no properties to set changelog directory inside application.properties so ChangeLogsScanPackages were empty.
Simple solution, I just removed #EnableMongock annotation and it started working.
Don't mix autoconfiguration (#EnableMongock) with creating mongockApplicationRunner and transactionManager or you will end up with problem like me.

Spring Boot schema.sql - drop db schema on restart

Hi I'm using Spring Boot version 1.5.9.
When using Spring Boot to initialize schema.sql for mysql database, it works all fine and the database schema is getting created successfully. But on restart of the application this schema.sql script is executing again and the application fails to start because the tables already exist.
I tried spring.jpa.hibernate.ddl-auto=create-drop option in application.properties but it does not have any effect (probably because it only works for Hibernate entities which I'm not using)
Is there a way to have Spring Boot to re-create schema from schema.sql every time on restart if the database is not in-memory one?
GitHub:
https://github.com/itisha/spring-batch-demo/tree/database-input
According to the documentation you can simply ignore exceptions by setting spring.datasource.continue-on-error property to true
Spring Boot enables the fail-fast feature of the Spring JDBC
initializer by default, so if the scripts cause exceptions the
application will fail to start. You can tune that using
spring.datasource.continue-on-error.
or even turn it off with spring.datasource.initialize set to false
You can also disable initialization by setting spring.datasource.initialize to false.
A workaround could be, to change the create statements in your schema.sql
from
CREATE TABLE test .....
to
CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS test ...
use the IF NOT EXISTS statements
turn off automatic schema creation to avoid conflicts: add this line in your application.properties
spring.jpa.hibernate.ddl-auto=none

How to make Spring Boot fail fast when did not found database configuration

I'm running a Spring Boot application.
When there's no application.properties file in standard config paths it is not loaded and default configuration seems to be loaded.
application.properties:
spring.datasource.url=jdbc:sqlserver:...
Because of that, Spring Boot creates empty database with scheme without data which leads to empty program output.
How can one prevent Spring Boot from loading database default configuration?
you can use something as follows exclude in #EnableAutoConfiguration annotations to exclude Datasource default configuration. Reference
#EnableAutoConfiguration(exclude={DataSourceAutoConfiguration.class})
I don't know if there is any provision to make the app fail fast.
In order to stop Spring-Boot from autoconfiguring certain features for you, you need to explicitly exclude the corresponding class from the auto-configuration config:
#EnableAutoConfiguration(exclude={DataSourceAutoConfiguration.class})
Note: using this annotation you are taking back the responsibility from Spring to setup things for you, so you need to configure your DB properly from now on.

Add Hibernate to SpringBoot project

I have a simple Spring Boot project (already mentioned here: Replace hsqldb with MySQL)
I would like to configure Hibernate to work with this project. In another project I used to get EntityManager like so:
#PersistenceContext(unitName = "orm-unit")
private EntityManager em;
but there I also have persistence.xml with required configuration.
In Spring Boot I don't even know where to place any configuration files.
How to make Hibernate work in this case?
Read the Spring Boot documentation. Looking over 31. Working with SQL databases you will see that you need to configure a DataSource.
DataSource configuration is controlled by external configuration
properties in spring.datasource.*. For example, you might declare the
following section in application.properties:
spring.datasource.url=jdbc:mysql://localhost/test
spring.datasource.username=dbuser
spring.datasource.password=dbpass
spring.datasource.driver-class-name=com.mysql.jdbc.Driver
You can also configure a datasource in a #Configuration mapped class which implements EnvironmentAware.
JHipster generates a cool database configuration using HikariCP. You can check it out the sample here.
For Hibernate you can configure JPA properties.
You can set spring.jpa.hibernate.ddl-auto explicitly and the standard Hibernate property values are none, validate, update, create, create-drop. Spring Boot chooses a default value for you based on whether it thinks your database is embedded (default create-drop) or not (default none).
For example to create and drop tables you can add the following to your application.properties.
spring.jpa.hibernate.ddl-auto=create-drop
As for EntityManager when you EnableAutoConfiguration you will trigger a JpaBaseConfiguration which will create an entity manager for you.
You can also use a custom EntityManagerFactory.
To take full control of the configuration of the EntityManagerFactory,
you need to add a #Bean named ‘entityManagerFactory’. Spring Boot
auto-configuration switches off its entity manager based on the
presence of a bean of that type.
And btw you can also use a traditional persistence.xml
