Eu tenho o projeto Maven com o framework Hibernate e Spring. Eu quero que o Hibernate crie tabelas automaticamente, mas todas as tabelas existentes são descartadas e as tabelas necessárias não são criadas. Nenhuma exceção é lançada durante a inicialização da fábrica, mas quando tento salvarPlayer entidade, exceção é lançada:

com.mysql.jdbc.exceptions.jdbc4.MySQLSyntaxErrorException: A tabela 'billboarddb.player' não existe

Se eu criar as tabelas manualmente e alterar a propriedadehibernate.hbm2ddl.auto para"validate"então tudo funciona bem. Você tem alguma idéia, por que o Hibernate não cria as tabelas?
