  Everything seems normal, but when running mvn spring-boot:run or from the IDE, there is no connection to MySQL database. </p>
  
  <p>The error is:</p>

  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I configured SQL connection within IntelliJ IDE, so the issue is not there.
  I had also generated two Entities with 1-1 relation (the owner of realtion was generated secondly as was proposed by jhipster).</p>
  
  <p>When I deployed a project to Openshift, it gave me the starting page etc, but in the "Entity" menu from the app - no entities were displayed at all, the menu was blank. So, I assume the issue is somewhere in the project itself or maybe its preferences. Any ideas what should I do to fix this error?</p>
