Hibernate Envers - Audit Tables are not getting created

Question

I have below setting in hibernate properties file

hibernate.ddl-auto=update
org.hibernate.envers.audit_table_suffix=_AUDITED

And in pom.xml

       <dependency>
            <groupId>org.hibernate</groupId>
            <artifactId>hibernate-envers</artifactId>
            <version>${hibernate.version}</version>
        </dependency>

I have annotated my entity class with @Audited. Hibernate version is 5.1.0.Final

What I am I doing wrong? My Audited tables are not getting created. I get the below exception when envers tries to insert in Audit table.

org.springframework.dao.InvalidDataAccessResourceUsageException: could not execute batch; SQL [insert into dbo.STPTradeTicket_AUDITED (REVTYPE, DownStreamTicketId, TicketId, REV) values (?, ?, ?, ?)]; nested exception is org.hibernate.exception.SQLGrammarException: could not execute batch

Answer 1

The property hibernate.ddl-auto=update isn't correct. You mention setting this in your hibernate properties file so I'm going to assume what you want to use is the following:

hibernate.hbm2ddl.auto=update

If you are using Spring's configuration to specify the value, then you would use

spring.jpa.hibernate.ddl-auto=update

As you can see, the declaration of the property name is more different than most.
