Please tell me how to solve this problem? And why does it arise?

Response to comments:

Solution

This is an hibernate issue, which is consider harmless

This error is mostly harmless but is creating a lot of confusion to users upgrading to Spring Boot 2.0 which has gone GA, suddenly seeing exceptions in the log which weren't there before.

I's fixed from version 5.4.0.CR1
