After updating my spring-boot-starter-parent version from 2.4.8 to 2.5.4, I started having this error with jackson serialization, when trying to deserialize a LocalDate:
com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.exc.InvalidDefinitionException: Java 8 date/time type `java.time.LocalDate` not supported by default: add Module "com.fasterxml.jackson.datatype:jackson-datatype-jsr310" to enable handling
To my knowledge, this shouldn’t happen (and it doesn’t on previous versions) since Spring Boot has those Jackson dependencies by default (jackson-datatype-jdk8, jackson-datatype-jsr310, etc)
I have no custom Jackson configurations.
Did anything change in the 2.5.x version of Spring boot?

This is a duplicate of Spring Boot 2.5.0 and InvalidDefinitionException: Java 8 date/time type `java.time.Instant` not supported by default
I don’t think I have enough reputation to mark it as such.
