Answer 1

Use new Maven dependencies

mysql mysql-connector-java 8.0.11

    <!-- https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/mysql/mysql-connector-java -->
    <dependency>
        <groupId>mysql</groupId>
        <artifactId>mysql-connector-java</artifactId>
        <version>8.0.11</version>
    </dependency>

Answer 2

I would try to play around the char encoding sets, for instance you can try to use the following url

String url="jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/student?autoReconnect=true&useSSL=false&characterEncoding=utf8&useUnicode=true";

Answer 3

I was using a latest version of mysql server with an older version of mysql-connector. Once I updated to the latest connector(8.0.11) this issue cleared up for me.
