Temporary Workaround:

Upgraded to Spring Boot 2.5.8, Artifact: spring-boot-starter-parent. Spring Boot 2.5.8 works with no issues.



Solution 1:[1]

This Problem has been solved with spring-boot 2.6.3 because it uses spring-data-jpa 2.6.1.

It was solved here: https://github.com/spring-projects/spring-data-jpa/issues/2383

There is stated that some changes where made to the unwrapping of type information which led to this bug. The user type information were not correctly unwrapped .

In the new version of spring-data-jpa the unwrapping of the type information will be done correctly again.
