Spring Boot: Jdbc javax.net.ssl.SSLException: closing inbound before receiving peer's close_notify


I am currently learning more about implementing JDBC and using databases in a Spring Boot webapp, and I encountered the following Stack Trace written in the bottom of the post.

I have created a simple Employee model, and I am trying to execute some database code on the same class which my main() lies in. The model and the main class are the only two java files existing in this whole project. I am trying to implement the following run() code that overrides the one from the interface, CommandLineRunner, but I do not get the logs that should come after log.info("Part A:"):

log.info("Part A:")
employees.forEach(employee -> {log.info(employee.toString());
        log.info("part a");});

--Things I noticed:

I noticed that the last line of the log before the stack trace starts comes from: "Thread-1" instead of "main". I think that means that a thread from somewhere other than the main encountered an error and closed connection before when it should close normally.

Also, I think that because HikariPool closed before "peer's close_notify", which I presume that it refers to the normal closure of HikariPool, I am not able to see the final bit of logging that I have kept trying to procure. The final bit of logging that I want to see is the logging of the employee that has become inserted into my database.

The final bit of logging that I want to see should be procured from this line of code:

employees.forEach(employee -> {log.info(employee.toString());
        log.info("part a");});

--Things to note:

Because of this line in the log, I thought I would see the employee inserted into my database, but when I queried directly on MySQL Command Line Client, it returned an empty set:

2018-11-03 21:08:35.362  INFO 2408 --- [           main] c.j.jdbctest1.JdbcTest1Application       : rows affected: 1

I don't understand why a row has been affected when nothing has been inserted into the database.

The stacktrace and logs: (The stacktrace pasted below actually repeats itself several more times but I cut it off for brevity.)

The Java Code:

@SpringBootApplication
public class JdbcTest1Application implements CommandLineRunner {
    private static final Logger log = LoggerFactory.getLogger(JdbcTest1Application.class);

    @Autowired
    JdbcTemplate jdbcTemplate;

    public static void main(String[] args) {
        SpringApplication.run(JdbcTest1Application.class, args);
    }

    @Override
    public void run(String... args) throws Exception {
        log.info("Creating tables");

        jdbcTemplate.execute("DROP TABLE IF EXISTS employees");
        jdbcTemplate.execute("CREATE TABLE employees (emp_id int, name varchar(100), role varchar(100), status varchar(100))");

        log.info("Inserting Baggins Hopkins");
        int rowsAffected = jdbcTemplate.update("INSERT INTO EMPLOYEE(EMP_ID, NAME, ROLE, STATUS)"
                + " VALUES(1,'Baggins Hopkins','thief','WORKING')");
        log.info("rows affected: "+ Integer.toString(rowsAffected));
        log.info("Querying for employee");
        String sql = "SELECT emp_id,name,role,status FROM employees";
        List<Employee> employees = jdbcTemplate.query(sql,(rs, rowNum)-> 
        new Employee(rs.getInt("emp_id"), rs.getString("name"),
                rs.getString("role"),Status.valueOf(rs.getString("status"))));
        log.info("Part A:");
        employees.forEach(employee -> {log.info(employee.toString());
            log.info("part a");});

    }
}

Also just in case this matters, I pasted this code from application.properties:

spring.datasource.url=jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/employee_database
spring.datasource.username=employee
spring.datasource.password=employee
spring.datasource.driver-class-name=com.mysql.cj.jdbc.Driver

Solution

  • To solve this problem, it took me about three days.

    (Edit: This is a workaround for testing and not actually a solution.)

    At first, I started solving the problem from trying to configure my own SSL for mysql, and I spent quite a few hours on that. Too much time had passed until I realized configuring it had to do with Cmake and C++, which made me give up. It was very frustrating. However I did not give up and tried to disable SSL entirely through a method that hasn't been found. And I eventually did find the method. Here it is:

    1. You have to use the legacy password for MySQL. The legacy password is the way MySQL authenticated things in version 5.7x.

    Open up the MySQL installer again, and reconfigure the MySQL Server settings. When you get there you will see this screen:

    The screen that you should get to

    You might get some errors when reaching the final stage of the reconfiguration:

    I had problems at the final stage I had no idea how to fix so I uninstalled MySQL altogether. I use windows. I deleted the MySQL project root directory from Program Files to uninstall MySQL. I also deleted the databases saved in Program Data (a hidden folder in the C Drive) because I wanted to start afresh(WARNING: this will delete all your previously saved data!). Uninstalling MySQL from the control panel might not be enough to completely erase MySQL from your computer.

    1. Delete all *.pem files in C:\ProgramData\MySQL\MySQL Server 8.0\Data. (or move it somewhere else, which is what I did)

    You might not see ProgramData in the C Drive. That is because it is a hidden folder. In order to see hidden folders:

    search for folder options in the control panel.

    Go to view.

    Under 'Advanced settings' and under 'Hidden files and folders' of that, click "Show hidden files, folders, and drives."

    1. Go to C:\ProgramData\MySQL\MySQL Server 8.0 and open my.cnf (or my.ini). Add the following line after [mysqld]:

    ssl=0

    Then save. It should work now.
