Answer 1

In ubuntu desktop 16.04, I did this:

1. open file: /etc/mysql/mysql.conf.d/mysqld.cnf in an editor of your choice.

2. Look for: sql_mode, it will be somewhere under [mysqld].

3. and set sql_mode to the following:

   NO_ZERO_IN_DATE,ERROR_FOR_DIVISION_BY_ZERO,NO_AUTO_CREATE_USER,NO_ENGINE_SUBSTITUTION

4. Save and then restart mysql service by doing:

   sudo service mysql restart
