IntelliJ Jakarta EE Hibernate Setup Question

I am trying to setup my first Java Hibernate project and decided to follow the instructions on this YouTube video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QJddHc41xrM&t=535s I made it to #08:50 where "jpa" was entered and the entitymanager setup was compiled. I can't get intellij to recognize this input and compile the code like in the video. What would be the next step to get this application working so I can simply enter 1 row into my database. Attached to this question are pictures of my class file setup and structure. I will also attach code to show how my entities, pom.xml, and persistence.xml file is setup. My main class that would start the transaction is empty and I want to know how I can make this work or what additional information I need to make it work. Any help would be much appreciated.
The code below is from my pom.xml file:

Access denied for user 'root'#'localhost' in Java Spring

I try to create a website with spring. But when I try to coonect my project with my database and to work with it throw spring I get errors.I run mysql server only. I 100% know that port, password and username are right. What am I doing wrong?
run mysql server
sudo /etc/init.d/mysql start
like this
application.propeties:
spring.jpa.hibernate.ddl-auto=update
spring.datasource.url=jdbc:mysql://${MYSQL_HOST:localhost}:3306/java_spring_blog

I think it's because due to thirst one.

It works when I create a new user. Thanks to Ankit

How to autoincrement an Id in a composite primary key in Hibernate?

I have a table with a composite primary key - groupId and batchId. Entity class looks like:
#Entity(name="EMPLOYEE")
public class Employee {
#EmbeddedId
private EmployeePK employeePK;
//Other columns and their getters and setters
//Getters and setters
}
Composite PK:
#Embeddable
public class EmployeePK implements Serializable {
private long groupId;
private long batchId;
#GeneratedValue(strategy=GenerationType.AUTO)
public long getBatchId() {
return batchId;
}
public void setBatchId(long batchId) {
this.batchId = batchId;
}
}
I'm trying to auto increment the batch Id, for a new record to be inserted.
//For saving
Employee employee = new Employee();
EmployeePK pk = new IRAmendmentBatchesPK();
pk.setBatchId(0);
pk.setGroupId(4388);
Employee employee = employeeRepository.save(employee);
//Repository Interface
public interface EmployeeRepository extends JpaRepository<Employee, EmployeePK>{
}
I'm explicity setting batchId as 0, in hopes that the auto-incremented value is set in the batchId during save(insert). As of now, this code will save a new entry with batchId as 0.

As I have mentioned in comment, I have used #IdClass it worked while I have tried in hsqldb in-memory database, but failed to work in mysql.
Please note I am using hibernate 5
You may give a try with oracle, I couldn't recollect but it should work. But please check for if any drawbacks with the approach if any.

I have tried with accepted answer in the post
Hibernate insert failing when embedded key contains identity column on SQL Server
but no luck with it.

private long groupId;
#GeneratedValue(strategy = GenerationType.AUTO)
private long batchId;
public long getBatchId() {
return batchId;
}
public void setBatchId(long batchId) {
this.batchId = batchId;
}
//implements equals and hashcode
}

It's precised in the Javadoc of oracle that is not possible and not in the spec : https://docs.oracle.com/javaee/6/api/javax/persistence/GeneratedValue.html
Use of the GeneratedValue annotation is not supported for derived primary keys.
And I found nothing about how to do it with build in tools. So you need to do yours own implementation of that.

Spring Boot + Hibernate + Postgres - not creating tables

I am trying to generate schema tables based on entities. The application starts correctly, the SQL is generated but there is no result - none of tables are created. What's wrong? I have used the same settings in plain Spring MVC + Hibernate JPA without Spring Boot and everything was working correctly.

}
public void setType(String type) {
this.type = type;
}
public Account getAccount() {

}
public void setAccount(Account account) {

}
}

I have fixed the issue. Instead of spring.datasource.schema=schemaName there should be spring.jpa.properties.hibernate.default_schema=schemaName.
The set of necessary properties required for generating tables in my case is the following:
spring.datasource.url = jdbc:postgresql://localhost:5432/postgres
spring.jpa.properties.hibernate.default_schema = schemaName
spring.datasource.username = userName
spring.datasource.password = userPassword
spring.jpa.hibernate.ddl-auto = create-drop
spring.jpa.show-sql = true

How to validate model data with JPA?

I am trying to get JPA validation to work, however it seems that the validation annotations are ignored. I found this example of JPA validation on SO: JPA Entity Validation, but it does not work for me. The #NotNull and #Size annotations seem to be ignored.
As in the answer mentioned above I use only two classes:
Customer.java:
package com.validation.test;
import javax.persistence.*;
import javax.validation.constraints.*;
#Entity
#Table(name = "T_CUSTOMER")
public class Customer {
#Id
#NotNull
#SequenceGenerator(name = "customerIdSeq", sequenceName = "T_CUSTOMER_ID_SEQ", allocationSize = 1)
#GeneratedValue(strategy = GenerationType.SEQUENCE, generator = "customerIdSeq")
private Long id;
#NotNull
#Size(min = 3, max = 80)
private String name;
public Customer() {};
public Customer(String name) {
this.name = name;
}
public Long getId() {
return id;
}
public void setId(Long id) {
this.id = id;
}
public String getName() {
return name;
}
public void setName(String name) {
this.name = name;
}
}
CustomerTest.java:
package com.validation.test.test;
import static org.junit.Assert.*;
import javax.persistence.*;
import javax.validation.*;
import javax.validation.constraints.Size;
import org.junit.*;
import com.validation.test.Customer;
public class CustomerTest {
private static EntityManagerFactory emf;
private EntityManager em;
#BeforeClass
public static void createEntityManagerFactory() {
emf = Persistence.createEntityManagerFactory("testPU");
}
#AfterClass
public static void closeEntityManagerFactory() {
emf.close();
}
#Before
public void beginTransaction() {
em = emf.createEntityManager();
em.getTransaction().begin();
}
#After
public void rollbackTransaction() {

The test fails at the fail(...) so the exception is never thrown.
How can I make (any) validation work with JPA? I cannot use Hibernate or Spring.
Thank you for your help
EDIT: added hibernate-validator to pom.xml (with no effect)

Add this to your pom.xmls.
<dependency>
<groupId>org.hibernate</groupId>
<artifactId>hibernate-validator</artifactId>
<version>4.2.0.Final</version>
<exclusions>
<exclusion>
<groupId>javax.xml.bind</groupId>
<artifactId>jaxb-api</artifactId>
</exclusion>
<exclusion>
<groupId>com.sun.xml.bind</groupId>
<artifactId>jaxb-impl</artifactId>
</exclusion>
</exclusions>
</dependency>
<dependency>
<groupId>javax.validation</groupId>
<artifactId>validation-api</artifactId>
<version>1.0.0.GA</version>
</dependency>
And set validation property to AUTO this must to be enable in persistence.xml
<property name="javax.persistence.validation.mode" value="AUTO" />
Or do it progrmatically.
final Set<ConstraintViolation<Object>> errors = validator.validate(object, classes);

Do you have a runtime implementation of the validator on your classpath? Typically people seem to use hibernate validator. (e.g. indeed by adding hibernate-validator to your pom.xml)
edit: Your version of EclipseLink also looks quite old, it should be a JPA2 implementation. If it is a JPA1 implementation, you should register your own event listener, which will be a bit more work. You can find some hints in the eclipse docs (scroll down to JPA section), but it looks like you'll have to slightly edit the standard validators to make it work. This blog might be helpful.
