Cannot instantiate Session Factory in Spring Boot Application

Whenever I run Spring boot app, I got following errors about EntityManagerFactory and SessionFactory which results in Spring error with current stack trace below:

org.springframework.beans.factory.UnsatisfiedDependencyException: Error creating bean with name 'appConfig': Unsatisfied dependency expressed through field 'entityManagerFactory'; nested exception is org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanCreationException: Error creating bean with name 'sessionFactory' defined in class path resource [com/cms/qlturka/app/AppConfig.class]: Bean instantiation via factory method failed; nested exception is org.springframework.beans.BeanInstantiationException: Failed to instantiate [org.hibernate.SessionFactory]: Circular reference involving containing bean 'appConfig' - consider declaring the factory method as static for independence from its containing instance. Factory method 'sessionFactory' threw exception; nested exception is java.lang.NullPointerException

Classes:

Main:

import org.springframework.boot.SpringApplication;
import org.springframework.boot.autoconfigure.SpringBootApplication;

@SpringBootApplication()
public class QlturkaApplication {

    public static void main(String[] args) {
        SpringApplication.run(QlturkaApplication.class, args);
    }

}

Configuration class:

@Configuration
@PropertySource("classpath:application.properties")
@EnableAutoConfiguration
public class AppConfig {
    @Autowired
    private Environment env;

    @Autowired
    private EntityManagerFactory entityManagerFactory;

    @Bean
    public SessionFactory sessionFactory() {
        if (entityManagerFactory.unwrap(SessionFactory.class) == null) {
            throw new NullPointerException("factory is not a hibernate factory");
        }
        System.out.println("here");
        return entityManagerFactory.unwrap(SessionFactory.class);
    }
}

How can I fix that? What is the problem with creating the beans? I cannot find any information about this problem

Answer

Remove hibernate-core dependency and add spring-data-jpa which already includes it.
