Persistence isnt working

I just tried to get persistance working, but I’m not sure, what goes wrong.

ok here’s my steps:

(1) addons.cfg

# A comma-separated list of persistence services to install (e.g. "rrd4j,jpa")
persistence = mysql 	

(2) mysql.cfg

############################ mySQL Persistence Service ##################################

# the database url like 'jdbc:mysql://<host>:<port>/<database>'
mysql:url=jdbc:mysql://192.168.xx.xx/openHAB

# the database user
mysql:user=xxx

# the database password
mysql:password=xxx

# the reconnection counter
#mysql:reconnectCnt=

# the connection timeout (in seconds)
#mysql:waitTimeout=

# optional tweaking of mysql datatypes
# example as described in https://github.com/openhab/openhab/issues/710
# mysql:sqltype.string=VARCHAR(20000)

# Use MySQL Server time to store item values (=false) or use openHAB Server time (=true).
# For new installations, its recommend to set "mysql:localtime=true".
# (available since 1.9, optional, defaults to false)
#mysql:localtime=true

(3) sensoren.persist

Strategies {
	everyMinute	: "0 * * * * ?"
	every5Minutes	: "0 */5 * * * ?"
   	everyHour	: "0 0 * * * ?"
   	everyDay	: "0 0 0 * * ?"
   	everyWeek	: "0 0 0 0 * ?"
   	everyMonth	: "0 0 0 0 0 ?"

    default = everyChange
}

Items {
    * : strategy = everyMinute, everyHour, everyDay, restoreOnStartup
}

After saving, I’ve got a new table in MySQL “Items” like this

CREATE TABLE `Items` (
  `ItemId` int(11) NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT,
  `ItemName` varchar(200) NOT NULL,
  PRIMARY KEY (`ItemId`)
) ENGINE=InnoDB DEFAULT CHARSET=utf16;

But this table stays empty, and there’s no other tables being created despite time strategies everyMinute and default strategy everyChange

The mySQL Persistance bündle is live (obviously):

208 | Active   |  80 | 1.9.0.201611210210    | openHAB mySQL Persistence bundle

I don’t get something out of the logs (even after log:set trace org.openhab.binding.mysql).

only thing I get:

2016-11-30 22:36:22.848 [INFO ] [el.core.internal.ModelRepositoryImpl] - Refreshing model 'sensoren.persist'
2016-11-30 22:36:22.947 [INFO ] [el.core.internal.ModelRepositoryImpl] - Refreshing model 'sensoren.persist'

the odd thing is the double entry of refreshing - but I get those on every occasion, should be another issue…?
