Answer 1

You need to add mysql JDBC jar in your dependencies.

---

1. Fix your driver class name as com.mysql.jdbc.Driver.

2. Fix your username and password property as

   "connection.username" for database user
   "connection.password" for database user password
   

3. Create mysql database. See this.

4. For SSL warning, modify your connection.url to include use ssl false. For example, jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/?autoReconnect=true&useSSL=false

5. Modify your mysql dialect to org.hibernate.dialect.MySQLDialect

6. Use create-drop instead of update however do not use this option in production. You should create schema yourself and not do it via hibernate.
