I have Spring Boot (2.3.4) app runs on Tomcat (9). When i try to build the project, flowable(6.6.0) engine gives this error.  
Schema is already created but it tries to create again. My problem is, i cannot deploy war code to the server because of it.

Check the logs down below:

Hey @huseyinkadioglu,

How is the schema initially created? Have you set some properties?

Cheers,
