java.sql.SQLSyntaxErrorException: Unknown column-CodePudding

I am studying Spring Boot. I want to refer to the MySQL data and display the MySQL data in Thymeleaf. But, I get the following error:

java.sql.SQLSyntaxErrorException: Unknown column 'employee0_.department_department_id' in 'field list'.

Also, I want to set to refer to Department class from Employee class. (@ManyToOne) But I'm not sure if the current Entity class and MySQL settings are correct.

EmployeeController

package com.example.demo.controller;

@RequiredArgsConstructor
@Controller
public class EmployeeController {

    private final EmployeeRepository emRepository;
    private final DepartmentRepository deRepository;

    @GetMapping("/")
    public String showList(Model model) {
        model.addAttribute("employeeList", emRepository.findAll());
        return "index";
    }

    @GetMapping("/add")
    public String addEmployee(@ModelAttribute Employee employee, Model model) {
        model.addAttribute("departmentList", deRepository.findAll());
        return "form";
    }

    @PostMapping("/save")
    public String process(@Validated @ModelAttribute Employee employee, BindingResult result) {

        if (result.hasErrors()) {
            return "form";
        }
        emRepository.save(employee);
        return "index";
    }

    @GetMapping("/edit/{id}")
    public String editEmployee(@PathVariable Long id, Model model) {
        model.addAttribute("employee", emRepository.findById(id));
        return "form";
    }

    @GetMapping("/delete/{id}")
    public String deleteEmployee(@PathVariable Long id) {
        emRepository.deleteById(id);
        return "redirect:/";
    }
}

Department

package com.example.demo.model;

@NoArgsConstructor
@Getter
@Setter
@Entity
public class Department {
    @Id
    @GeneratedValue(strategy = GenerationType.IDENTITY)
    @Column(name="department_id")
    private Long department_id;

    @NotBlank
    @Size(max = 40)
    @Column(name="department_name")
    private String department_name;


    public Department(String name) {
        this.department_name = name;

    }
}

Employee

package com.example.demo.model;
@NoArgsConstructor
@AllArgsConstructor
@Getter
@Setter
@Entity
public class Employee {
    @Id
    @GeneratedValue(strategy = GenerationType.IDENTITY)
    private Long id;

    @NotBlank
    @Size(max = 40)
    private String name;

    @ManyToOne
    private Department department;
}

DepartmentRepository

package com.example.demo.repository;

import org.springframework.data.jpa.repository.JpaRepository;

import com.example.demo.model.Department;

public interface DepartmentRepository  extends JpaRepository<Department, Long> {

}

EmployeeRepository

package com.example.demo.repository;

CodePudding user response：

You might want to try add annotation @JoinColumn(name = "department_id") under your department data in your Employee class. Or more detail like,

@Entity
public class Employee {
    @Id
    @GeneratedValue(strategy = GenerationType.IDENTITY)
    private Long id;

    @NotBlank
    @Size(max = 40)
    private String name;

    @ManyToOne(targetEntity = Department.class)
    @JoinColumn(name = "department_id", referencedColumnName = "department_id")
    private Department department;
}

Also, I suggest to not use the column department_name on your employee class (also in database). You can get the attribute using getter after fetching the data. e.g. employee.getDepartment().getDepartment_Name().
