Column 'date_created' cannot be null

[abrahaj]

Seems there is an issue with logging due to a "Column 'date_created' cannot be null" and MySQL

Using:
grailsVersion=3.3.9
gormVersion=6.1.11.RELEASE
audit-logging:3.0.4
name: 'mysql-connector-java', version: '5.1.47'

    into
        audit_log
        (persisted_object_id, property_name, date_created, last_updated, event_name, actor, new_value, class_name, old_value, persisted_object_version, uri) 
    values
        (?, ?, ?, ?, ?, ?, ?, ?, ?, ?, ?)
Hibernate: 
    insert 
    into
        audit_log
        (persisted_object_id, property_name, date_created, last_updated, event_name, actor, new_value, class_name, old_value, persisted_object_version, uri) 
    values
        (?, ?, ?, ?, ?, ?, ?, ?, ?, ?, ?)
...

Same for newer versions of mysql-connector (tested with mysql-connector-java', version: '8.0.17')

How does your AuditTrail class look like?
Autotimestamp is normally on. There is a fallback in the listener to create the actual dateCreated.
See https://github.com/robertoschwald/grails-audit-logging-plugin/blob/master/plugin/src/main/groovy/grails/plugins/orm/auditable/AuditLogListener.groovy#L192

I have had the same problem with the default AuditTrail class created by grails audit-quickstart.

After removing autoTimestamp false from mapping closure, everything works fine.
