Bug #99487 Mysql connector for java 8.0.20 shifts back LocalDate by one day when queried

Description:
Hi, I have run into following issue after updating spring boot from 2.2.6 to 2.2.7:

When I save LocalDate with spring data jpa repository to mysql - for example:
2020-05-08, it is correctly written to database as 2020-05-08.

But when I later want to retrieve it with the repository what I get back is shifted by one day backwards:
2020-05-07. This started to happen only after this update.

I made sure that the database is set to UTC:

And I also set the application to the same timezone:

@ConfigurationPropertiesScan
@EnableScheduling
@SpringBootApplication
class EconomyApplication {

    @PostConstruct
    fun init() {
        TimeZone.setDefault(TimeZone.getTimeZone("UTC"))
    }
}

This problem is also described previously by someone on stackoverflow: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/54418827/mysql-date-changes-to-yesterdays-date-after-j...

How to repeat:
Save java LocalDate with spring data jpa and then retrieve it back - it will be shifted by one day backwards

This issue doesnt occur on version 8.0.19

Hi Martin,

If it was working for you with c/J 8.0.19 then it must be the consequences of the Bug#91112 fix. In c/J 8.0.20 LocalDate is rendered using the local JVM time zone which is altered in @PostConstruct. But the driver can follow this change only when cacheDefaultTimezone=false.

We have other issues with LocalDate/LocalTime/LocalDatetime reported in Bug#93444, so if setting cacheDefaultTimezone=false doesn't help then it's a duplicate bug for Bug#93444.

Hi, I added cacheDefaultTimezone=false

and now I dont get this error on 8.0.20. Thanks

Thanks for checking!
