I am a beginner to spring. So right now I am starting to learn spring boot and build this simple project, but when I ran it I got this error " Field entityManager in sagala.rest.boot.remade.dao.EmployeeDaoImpl required a bean of type 'javax.persistence.EntityManager' that could not be found.".

Here is my controller class

package sagala.rest.boot.remade.controller;

import java.util.List;

import org.springframework.beans.factory.annotation.Autowired;
import org.springframework.web.bind.annotation.GetMapping;
import org.springframework.web.bind.annotation.RequestMapping;
import org.springframework.web.bind.annotation.RestController;

import sagala.rest.boot.remade.entity.Employee;
import sagala.rest.boot.remade.service.EmployeeService;


@RestController
@RequestMapping("/api")
public class MainController {

@Autowired
private EmployeeService employeeService;

@GetMapping("/employees")
public List<Employee> findAll() {
    return employeeService.findAll();
}

}

Here is the Service class

package sagala.rest.boot.remade.service;

import java.util.List;

import org.springframework.beans.factory.annotation.Autowired;
import org.springframework.stereotype.Service;
import org.springframework.transaction.annotation.Transactional;

import sagala.rest.boot.remade.dao.EmployeeDao;
import sagala.rest.boot.remade.entity.Employee;

@Service
public class EmployeeServiceImpl implements EmployeeService {

@Autowired
private EmployeeDao employeeDao;

@Override
@Transactional
public List<Employee> findAll() {

    return employeeDao.findAll();
}

}

Here is the DAO class

package sagala.rest.boot.remade.dao;

import java.util.List;

import javax.persistence.EntityManager;

import org.hibernate.Session;
import org.hibernate.query.Query;
import org.springframework.beans.factory.annotation.Autowired;
import org.springframework.stereotype.Repository;

import sagala.rest.boot.remade.entity.Employee;

@Repository
public class EmployeeDaoImpl implements EmployeeDao {

@Autowired
private EntityManager entityManager;

@Override
public List<Employee> findAll() {
    Session session =entityManager.unwrap(Session.class);
    Query<Employee> query =session.createQuery("from Employee", Employee.class);
    List<Employee> employees =query.getResultList();
    return employees;
}

}

Here is the entity class

package sagala.rest.boot.remade.entity;

import javax.persistence.Column;
import javax.persistence.Entity;
import javax.persistence.GeneratedValue;
import javax.persistence.GenerationType;
import javax.persistence.Id;
import javax.persistence.Table;

@Entity
@Table(name="employee")
public class Employee {

@Id
@GeneratedValue(strategy=GenerationType.IDENTITY)
@Column(name="id")
private int id;

@Column(name="first_name")
private String firstName;

@Column(name="last_name")
private String lastName;

@Column(name="email")
private String email;

public Employee() {

}

public Employee(String firstName, String lastName, String email) {
    this.firstName = firstName;
    this.lastName = lastName;
    this.email = email;
}

public int getId() {
    return id;
}

public void setId(int id) {
    this.id = id;
}

public String getFirstName() {
    return firstName;
}

public void setFirstName(String firstName) {
    this.firstName = firstName;
}

public String getLastName() {
    return lastName;
}

public void setLastName(String lastName) {
    this.lastName = lastName;
}

public String getEmail() {
    return email;
}

public void setEmail(String email) {
    this.email = email;
}

}

Here is the application properties

If anyone can help me. Thanks

I changed the spring boot version from 2.2.6 to 2.1.13 and everything works fine. Seems like the javax.persistence.EntityManager is corrupt in the newer spring boot version. Eventhough deleted repo multiple times, I still could not find JpaRepository interface when try to extends it as another alternative dao implementation.
