title: Properties file causes exception on empty Spring Boot Project
body: <p>I created a Spring Boot project and it's empty, no other classes. I want to connect to my MySQL database so my properties file looks like this</p>
  
  <pre><code>spring.jpa.hibernate.ddl-auto = none
  spring.datasource.url = jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/mydb
  spring.datasource.username = root
  spring.datasource.password = "PASSWORD"
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>When I run the project the following exceptions are appearing. Keep in mind, that the empty Spring Boot project runs without exceptions when I don't add any MySQL related lines on properties file.</p>
  
  <pre><code>org.springframework.beans.factory.UnsatisfiedDependencyException: Error creating bean with name 'entityManagerFactory' defined in class path resource [org/springframework/boot/autoconfigure/orm/jpa/HibernateJpaAutoConfiguration.class]: Unsatisfied dependency expressed through method 'entityManagerFactory' parameter 0; nested exception is org.springframework.beans.factory.UnsatisfiedDependencyException: Error creating bean with name 'entityManagerFactoryBuilder' defined in class path resource [org/springframework/boot/autoconfigure/orm/jpa/HibernateJpaAutoConfiguration.class]: Unsatisfied dependency expressed through method 'entityManagerFactoryBuilder' parameter 0; nested exception is org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanCreationException: Error creating bean with name 'jpaVendorAdapter' defined in class path resource [org/springframework/boot/autoconfigure/orm/jpa/HibernateJpaAutoConfiguration.class]: Bean instantiation via factory method failed; nested exception is org.springframework.beans.BeanInstantiationException: Failed to instantiate [org.springframework.orm.jpa.JpaVendorAdapter]: Factory method 'jpaVendorAdapter' threw exception; nested exception is java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/hibernate/HibernateException
