https://github.com/RameshMF/springboot-postgresql-hibernate-crud-example I got one tutorial from youtube. It is a simple crud application on spring boot jpa , but I am getting this error while running. I am using jdk 18 version

CodePudding user response：

The example you are referring is using Java version 8.

<java.version>1.8</java.version>

And you are using Java 18 as you said, hence the mismatch is happening.

Either use java 8 or migrate it to 18.
