title: Hibernate fails to create table in MySQL
body: <p>Hibernate fails to create new table new table for Entity in MySQL eventhough property "hibernate.hbm2ddl.auto" is set to "create-drop". It also fails with "create" and "update" with the same error: <code>org.hibernate.tool.schema.spi.CommandAcceptanceException: Error executing DDL via JDBC Statement.</code></p>
  
  <p>Note: Database "test" is already created and empty.</p>
  
  <p>If a table named "Test" is already created (even if its empty) everything runs perfectly and table is updated.</p>
  
  <p>But after hours of Stackoverflowing and Googling I am giving up. I will create empty tables previously. If someone could find a better solution would be great.</p>
  
  <p>Thanks,</p>
  
  <p>Runing on Ubuntu 16.04.1 64 bits with Oracle Java 1.8.0_101. MySQL Server is 5.7.15. IDE used Eclipse Neon.</p>

For compliance with existing applications not using SSL the verifyServerCertificate property is set to 'false'. You need either to explicitly disable SSL by setting useSSL=false, or set useSSL=true and provide truststore for server certificate verification.
