Also do note when specifying DATETIME as DATETIME 3  or like on MySQL 5 7 x  you also have to add the same value for CURRENT TIMESTAMP 3   If not it will keep throwing  Invalid default value

I have mysql version 5 6 27 on my LEMP and CURRENT TIMESTAMP as default value works fine

CURRENT TIMESTAMP is only acceptable on TIMESTAMP fields  DATETIME fields must be left either with a null default value  or no default value at all - default values must be a constant value  not the result of an expression   relevant docs  http   dev mysql com doc refman 5 0 en data-type-defaults html  You can work around this by setting a post-insert trigger on the table to fill in a  now  value on any new records

CURRENT TIMESTAMP is version specific and is now allowed for DATETIME columns as of version 5 6   See MySQL docs
