Resolved this issue, in the stacktrace you will be seeing Access to DialectResolutionInfo cannot be null when 'hibernate.dialect' not set. This needs to be set in the application property file where you've been defined all the datasource configuration values.
spring:
datasource:
url: jdbc:postgresql://localhost:5432/mypage
username: postgres
password: root
driver-class-name: org.postgresql.Driver
hikari:
connection-timeout: 30000
idle-timeout: 60000
max-lifetime: 1800000
jpa:
generate-ddl: false
hibernate:
ddl-auto: none
properties:
hibernate:
temp:
use_jdbc_metadata_defaults: false #to disable contextual lob creation when application starts.
database-platform: org.hibernate.dialect.PostgreSQLDialect
spring.jpa.databse-platform property.
This was not required for the older version of hibernate-core, as I was able to run the application without setting this property. This I've only noticed when I updated hibernate-core version
PS: Correct me if I'm wrong
