@CreationTimestamp and @UpdateTimestamp is not working with LocalDateTime

I am trying to use @CreationTimestamp and @UpdateTimestamp with LocalDateTime type, but it is giving me org.hibernate.HibernateException: Unsupported property type for generator annotation @CreationTimestamp exception.

I am using 5.0.12.hibernate version with java 8 LocalDataTime,

Is there any way to use @UpdateTimestamp and @CreationTimestamp with Java 8 LocalDateTime ?

 org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanCreationException: Error creating bean with name 'entityManagerFactory' defined in class path resource [org/springframework/boot/autoconfigure/orm/jpa/HibernateJpaAutoConfiguration.class]: Invocation of init method failed; nested exception is org.hibernate.HibernateException: Unsupported property type for generator annotation @CreationTimestamp

In my case, I was using some other Date import instead of java.utils

Your problem is your Hibernate version. You need to upgrade it to version 5.2.3 in order to use @CreationTimestamp and @UpdateTimestamp with LocalDateTime. For more information, you can check this blog. Just upgrade your Hibernate and everything should work as expected.

If you don't want to update your Hibernate version, you can change your field types to one of the following.

  • java.util.Date
  • java.util.Calendar
  • java.sql.Date
  • java.sql.Time
  • java.sql.Timestamp
