You must configure either the server or JDBC driver (via the 'serverTimezone' configuration property)

application.yml里配置好数据库连接后，启动项目，报错

java.sql.SQLException: The server time zone value ‘?й???????‘ is unrecognized or represents more than one time zone. You must configure either the server or JDBC driver (via the ‘serverTimezone‘ configuration property) to use a more specifc time zone value if you want to utilize time zone support.

上网搜索问题原因，大致是安装mysql默认的时区是美国时区，与国内有差值，在数据库连接的配置项后面加上以下一段

url: jdbc:mysql://127.0.0.1:3306/school?serverTimezone=UTC

重启后，问题解决。
