I'm making tables in my PostgreSQL database using Hibernate. I have a class user, from which some other classes like student inherit using @inheritance. When I don't use @Entity, all the tables are created like they should, but when I use @Entity, none of the tables get made, and I get the following error:
org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanCreationException: Error creating bean with name 'entityManagerFactory' defined in class path resource [org/springframework/boot/autoconfigure/orm/jpa/HibernateJpaConfiguration.class]: Invocation of init method failed; nested exception is java.lang.ClassCastException: class org.hibernate.mapping.SingleTableSubclass cannot be cast to class org.hibernate.mapping.RootClass (org.hibernate.mapping.SingleTableSubclass and org.hibernate.mapping.RootClass are in unnamed module of loader 'app')

I have searched for an answer on the internet, but haven't found anything. The solution probably isn't that hard, but I can't seem to find it.
