The reason for the error is that I used mysql-connector-java The version is 5, The database version is 8.

The solution is to modify pom.xml In file mysql-connector-java Version of :

<dependency>
	<groupId>mysql</groupId>
	<artifactId>mysql-connector-java</artifactId>
	<version>8.0.11</version>
</dependency>
