and my Course model looks like below,

import javax.persistence.EntityListeners;
import javax.persistence.GeneratedValue;
import javax.persistence.GenerationType;
import javax.persistence.Table;
import javax.validation.constraints.NotBlank;

import org.springframework.data.annotation.Id;
import org.springframework.data.jpa.domain.support.AuditingEntityListener;

@Entity
@Table(name = "courses")
@EntityListeners(AuditingEntityListener.class)
public class Course {
    @Id
    @GeneratedValue(strategy = GenerationType.IDENTITY)
    private Long id;

    @NotBlank
    String name;

    @NotBlank
    String code;

    @NotBlank
    int passMark;

    ....
}

I also referred previous questions(Error creating bean with name ‘entityManagerFactory’ defined in class path resource : Invocation of init method failed) regarding this issue, But nothing helps.

Answer

some day ago i am getting error message like required a bean named ‘entityManagerFactory’ that could not be found.

After lot of googling solve this problem. I set manual configuration for JPA.

@Bean 
public LocalSessionFactoryBean sessionFactory() {
    LocalSessionFactoryBean sessionFactory = new LocalSessionFactoryBean(); 

    return sessionFactory;
}

but JPA by default search sessionFactory by name ‘entityManagerFactory’ so change my code as:

@Bean(name="entityManagerFactory")
public LocalSessionFactoryBean sessionFactory() {
    LocalSessionFactoryBean sessionFactory = new LocalSessionFactoryBean();

    return sessionFactory;
}

UPDATE import proper calss

import javax.persistence.Id;

you try to join subject class with course without foreign key reference… change your code according that image
