nested exception is org.hibernate.service.spi.ServiceException: Unable to create requested service 'entityManagerFactory' - spring

Question

For some reason JPA is giving me an error saying:
Error creating bean with name 'entityManagerFactory' defined in class
path resource
[org/springframework/boot/autoconfigure/orm/jpa/HibernateJpaAutoConfiguration.class]: Invocation of init method failed; nested exception is
org.hibernate.service.spi.ServiceException:
Unable to create requested service [org.hibernate.engine.jdbc.env.spi.JdbcEnvironment]
I simply set up JPA and my Oracle DB in my application.properties like so:
Oracle database setup
spring.datasource.url=jdbc:oracle:thin:#999.999.999.999:1521:d9SID
spring.datasource.username=username
spring.datasource.password=password
spring.datasource.driver-class-name=oracle.jdbc.OracleDriver
spring.profiles.active=oracle
JPA setup
spring.jpa.hibernate.ddl-auto=validate
spring.jpa.database-platform=org.hibernate.dialect.Oracle11gDialect
server.port = 4000

I did not see any conflicts in my mvn:tree and from my understanding you can create a datasource in application.properties.
