I'm trying to make a Spring Boot Maven multi-module app in Java 9. It works without adding Spring Data support and @Entity classes, but now it won't start.
The problem is the following exception:

org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanCreationException: Error creating bean with name 'entityManagerFactory' defined in class path resource [org/springframework/boot/autoconfigure/orm/jpa/HibernateJpaConfiguration.class]: Invocation of init method failed; nested exception is javax.persistence.PersistenceException: Unable to resolve persistence unit root URL

There are a few examples of this exception on the internet, but none of them is relevant for me. I believe that the multi-module Java 9 environment causes the problem somehow, so this question is not a duplicate of the others.

I tried every possible solutions I could find and think of, I even tried to manually configure everything, none of them helped or got me closer to the cause. But there's one thing I found interesting in those solutions: it seems that this exception is thrown when Spring Boot cannot find any @Entity class. So I'm thinking the @Entity classes are somehow not visible through the module system.

Since the problem seems to be dependent of the environment, here's the whole project: (Note that it's in very early state, most of it is incomplete, but should at least run)

Any help is appreciated, I'm out of ideas.

You need to add these dependencies to pom.xml (or provide them in a different way, if you do not use maven):

<dependency>

    <groupId>javax.xml.bind</groupId>

    <artifactId>jaxb-api</artifactId>

    <version>2.3.0</version>

</dependency>

<dependency>

    <groupId>net.bytebuddy</groupId>

    <artifactId>byte-buddy</artifactId>

    <version>1.9.3</version>

</dependency>

and include them in module-info.java

open module org.demo {

    ...

    requires java.xml.bind;

    requires net.bytebuddy;

}
