Before running the server, start a MySQL service and create a database. Modify MySQL username, password and URL in src/main/resources/application.yml. The property url: jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/commentdb should be changed to url: jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/<your_db_name>,

java -jar --server.port=8081 ./target/comment-system-0.0.1-SNAPSHOT.jar
