Question

Please help me fix it!

Answer 1

Two recommendations. One, make sure you are using the latest version of HikariCP. Two, configure the computer to sync time from a NTP server.

Newer versions of HikariCP will only evict connections when backward time motion is detected. But will still log a warning for large forward leaps. Large forward leaps often occur on laptops that go into sleep mode or VMs that are suspended and resumed.
