Spring Boot DataSource: 'url' attribute is not specified

I am trying to follow this guide https://spring.io/guides/gs/accessing-data-mysql/

but this guide is for the maven and i am trying the gradle

and getting this error


Failed to configure a DataSource: 'url' attribute is not specified and no embedded datasource could be configured.

Reason: Failed to determine a suitable driver class

in application.properties i have these things only.

spring.datasource.url=jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/db_example
spring.datasource.username=root
spring.datasource.password=root
spring.jpa.hibernate.ddl-auto=update
spring.datasource.driver-class-name=com.mysql.cj.jdbc.Driver

I tried all the possible things there is on the SO.

the only deps i have are these

dependencies {
    implementation 'org.springframework.boot:spring-boot-starter-data-jpa'
    implementation 'org.springframework.boot:spring-boot-starter-web'
    runtimeOnly 'mysql:mysql-connector-java'
    testImplementation('org.springframework.boot:spring-boot-starter-test') {
        exclude group: 'org.junit.vintage', module: 'junit-vintage-engine'
    }
}

This is kind of an old question but for anyone else coming across this, IF by any chance you are using IntelliJ (as OP does here based on his/her comments) make sure that our beloved IDE recognises your application.properties/application.yml as such by going to File -> Project Structure -> Modules then select your resources file and click on "Resources" from the Mark as: header thing (based on IntelliJ Community Edition 2019.1). Also keep in mind, as no doubt the IDE will certainly notify you, that by reimporting any Maven changes you will need to do this procedure again.

I was having the same problem and solved it by migrating my project that was in version 2.4.x, to 2.3.x.

in IDE / STS (spring tool suit), every thing was working fine
but when made a "project.jar" file,
this was thrown.

unnecessary spaces " " in the "application.yml" file can cause this.

server:
  port: 8085


spring:
 datasource:
  url: jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/studentdb
  username: root
  password: root
  driver-class-name: com.mysql.cj.jdbc.Driver
 jpa:
   hibernate:
    ddl-auto: update
   show-sql: true
   database-platform: org.hibernate.dialect.MySQL5InnoDBDialect
 application:
  name: STUDENT-SERVICE

instead of tweaking my "application.yml" file
i simply moved all my statements in "application.yml" file to
"application.properties" file and formatted the statements like required in ".properties".

spring.datasource.driver-class-name=com.mysql.cj.jdbc.Driver
spring.datasource.url=jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/studentdb
spring.datasource.username=root
spring.datasource.password=root
spring.jpa.hibernate.ddl-auto = update
spring.jpa.properties.hibernate.dialect = org.hibernate.dialect.MySQL5Dialect

spring.jpa.show-sql=true
spring.jpa.properties.hibernate.format.sql=true

spring.application.name=student-service

server.port=8085

and voilà

(you can add params at the end of url)
(spring.datasource.url=jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/studentdb?allowPublicKeyRetrieval=true&useSSL=false)
