Answer 1

Very first need to add database name in URL like jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/database_name.

you can also create a fresh database using this URL

jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/database_name?createDatabaseIfNotExist=true

createDatabaseIfNotExist this keyword create a fresh new database in your system. If the database does not exist. if exist, skip executing.

How to create database with Liquibase

Answer 2

You need to specify the database in the URL.

EDIT

Liquibase doesn't actually do the very first step of creating the empty database with permissions, etc. That must be done using the platform's native tools. Once an empty database is in place, liquibase will populate the database schema by creating the correct tables, etc.
