MySQL 5.7.18

I have dropped the mysql.general_log table too, but the other answers did not help me.

Then, I noticed errors about the table structure cause it's a bit different on MySQL 5.7.18, so I have changed some field and now it works.

In case anybody needs it:

CREATE TABLE `general_log` (
  `event_time` timestamp(6) NOT NULL DEFAULT CURRENT_TIMESTAMP(6) ON UPDATE CURRENT_TIMESTAMP(6),
  `user_host` mediumtext NOT NULL,
  `thread_id` bigint(21) unsigned NOT NULL,
  `server_id` int(10) unsigned NOT NULL,
  `command_type` varchar(64) NOT NULL,
  `argument` mediumblob
) ENGINE=MyISAM DEFAULT CHARSET=utf8 COMMENT='General log'
