Cannot construct instance of `java.time.LocalDate` - Spring boot, elasticseach, jackson

add below annotation over the field LocalDate

@JsonDeserialize(using = LocalDateDeserializer.class)@JsonSerialize(using = LocalDateSerializer.class)private LocalDate start;

Date/time format, according to ISO 8601 is "YYYY-MM-DD", so your pattern should be:

@JsonFormat(shape = JsonFormat.Shape.STRING, pattern = "yyyy-MM-dd")

Instead of:

@JsonFormat(shape = JsonFormat.Shape.STRING, pattern = "dd.MM.yyyy")

Another way is adding in your application.yml

spring:    jackson:        serialization:            WRITE_DATES_AS_TIMESTAMPS: false

Or disable this feature directly in your object mapper:

objectMapper.disable(SerializationFeature.WRITE_DATES_AS_TIMESTAMPS)

need to install JsonFormat JsonDeserialize JsonSerialize

private LocalDate dateOfBirth;    @PastOrPresent(message = "must be past time or present")    @Column(name = "date_of_birth", nullable = false, columnDefinition = "DATE")    @JsonFormat(shape = JsonFormat.Shape.STRING, pattern = "dd-MM-yyyy")    @JsonDeserialize(using = LocalDateDeserializer.class)    @JsonSerialize(using = LocalDateSerializer.class)    public LocalDate getDateOfBirth() {        return dateOfBirth;    }    @JsonFormat(shape = JsonFormat.Shape.STRING, pattern = "dd-MM-yyyy")    public void setDateOfBirth(LocalDate dateOfBirth) {        this.dateOfBirth = dateOfBirth;    }
