I’m in the process of integrating Liquibase into my project. However, I’ve encountered an issue where an error is triggered immediately upon its addition.

Exceptions Message:

org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanCreationException: Error creating bean with name 'entityManagerFactory' defined in class path resource [org/springframework/boot/autoconfigure/orm/jpa/HibernateJpaConfiguration.class]: Failed to initialize dependency 'liquibase' of LoadTimeWeaverAware bean 'entityManagerFactory': Error creating bean with name 'liquibase' defined in class path resource [org/springframework/boot/autoconfigure/liquibase/LiquibaseAutoConfiguration$LiquibaseConfiguration.class]: Circular depends-on relationship between 'liquibase' and 'entityManagerFactory'

I tryed following, but the same error occurs:

@Configuration
public class LiquibaseConfig {

    @Bean
    @Lazy
    public SpringLiquibase liquibase() {
        SpringLiquibase liquibase = new SpringLiquibase();
        // Configure your Liquibase properties here
        liquibase.setChangeLog("classpath:db/changelog/db.changelog-master.xml");
        liquibase.setDataSource(dataSource());
        return liquibase;
    }

    @Bean
    public DataSource dataSource() {
        return new HikariDataSource();
    }
}

@Configuration
public class JpaConfig {

    @Bean
    @DependsOn("liquibase")
    public LocalContainerEntityManagerFactoryBean entityManagerFactory() {
        LocalContainerEntityManagerFactoryBean factoryBean = new LocalContainerEntityManagerFactoryBean();
        factoryBean.setDataSource(dataSource());
        factoryBean.setPackagesToScan("com.example.yourpackage");
        factoryBean.setJpaVendorAdapter(new HibernateJpaVendorAdapter());
        return factoryBean;
    }

    @Bean
    public DataSource dataSource() {
        return new HikariDataSource();
    }
}

I’ve explored various solutions on Stack Overflow in an attempt to resolve my issue, but unfortunately, none have proven effective. As a result, I’ve decided to bring my question to this forum in hopes of finding the assistance I need.
