In MySql '0000-00-00' is considered a valid date, but it can't be repesented as java.sql.Date.

You could use a query that returns NULL in case date is '0000-00-00', or the actual value otherwise:

SELECT
  CASE WHEN `date`!='0000-00-00' THEN `date` END new_date
FROM
  yourtable

or you can add to your datasource connection string this:

zeroDateTimeBehavior=convertToNull

and dates as '0000-00-00' will be automatically converted to NULL.
