I had this issue after migrating from spring-boot-starter-data-jpa ver. 1.5.7 to 2.0.2 (from old hibernate to hibernate 5.2). In my @Configuration class I injected entityManagerFactory and transactionManager.

//I've got my data source defined in application.yml config file, 
//so there is no need to configure it from java.
@Autowired
DataSource dataSource;

@Bean
public LocalContainerEntityManagerFactoryBean entityManagerFactory() {
    //JpaVendorAdapteradapter can be autowired as well if it's configured in application properties.
    HibernateJpaVendorAdapter vendorAdapter = new HibernateJpaVendorAdapter();
    vendorAdapter.setGenerateDdl(false);

    LocalContainerEntityManagerFactoryBean factory = new LocalContainerEntityManagerFactoryBean();
    factory.setJpaVendorAdapter(vendorAdapter);
    //Add package to scan for entities.
    factory.setPackagesToScan("com.company.domain");
    factory.setDataSource(dataSource);
    return factory;
}

@Bean
public PlatformTransactionManager transactionManager(EntityManagerFactory entityManagerFactory) {
    JpaTransactionManager txManager = new JpaTransactionManager();
    txManager.setEntityManagerFactory(entityManagerFactory);
    return txManager;
}

Also remember to add hibernate-entitymanager dependency to pom.xml otherwise EntityManagerFactory won't be found on classpath:

        org.hibernate
        hibernate-entitymanager
        5.0.12.Final
