Data truncation: Cannot get geometry object from data you send to the GEOMETRY field

[olofumark]

Someone please help. I'm trying to insert a simple point into MySQL but have been quite unsuccessful due to an error.

My Entity class

@Entity(name = "listing")
@Data
public class Listing implements Serializable { 
    @Id
    @GeneratedValue(strategy = GenerationType.IDENTITY)
    private long id;

    @Column(name = "location" , columnDefinition = "POINT")
    private Point location;
}   

This is how I prepare a point for insertion:

public static Point getPointFromXY(double longitude, double latitude) {
    GeometryFactory geometryFactory = new GeometryFactory();
    return geometryFactory.createPoint(new Coordinate(longitude, latitude));
}

My Repository class

public interface ListingRepository extends CrudRepository<Listing, Long> {
}

And here is the Controller portion

Listing listing = listingMapper.toListing(listingDTO);
llisting.setLocation(SharedUtils.getPointFromXY(listingDTO.getLongitude(), listingDTO.getLatitude()));
Listing resultListing = listingRepository.save(listing);

Here's the error stacktrace

What happens? The entity table gets created fine and I can manually insert points into the table but gives error via code.

Thanks for any insights

This is an issue between your model and your database. Not sure how much Hibernate is involved, in any case that's not a Spring Data issue.

@mp911de Thanks for the response but let me add something, When I manually insert Points into the table, reading them back via Spring Data also throws a corrupted a corrupted stream error:: java.io.StreamCorruptedException: invalid stream header: 00000000 at java.base/java.io.ObjectInputStream.readStreamHeader(ObjectInputStream.java:958) ~[na:na] at java.base/java.io.ObjectInputStream.(ObjectInputStream.java:392) ~[na:na]

And looking at the simplicity of my model, I'm at a loss regarding what to tweak. Kindly help me understand what might be wrong between my model and database or what to do please.
