As an update, I nuked my .mysql/workbench directory, reimported my saved connections, and things are working again (for now). Perhaps its really an upstream bug? The latest version seems to be very problematic.

I've noticed two issues since updating from 6.3.10-6 to 8.0.12-4

1. Segfault when opening a saved connection. The query editor does come up for a few seconds with all the previous tabs open, then closes with a seg fault. I'm attaching my debug strace, my local MariaDB 10.2 database connected fine after nuking my ~/.mysql/workbench directory (same as f (bakgwailo))

2. Connecting to (some) remote MySQL servers gives an error similar to `ProxySQL Error: Access denied for user 'myuser'@'serverip' (using password: NO)` when definitely inputting a password or trying to use a saved password. This is due to MySQL Workbench 8 no longer supporting connections to older versions of MySQL Server. https://bugs.mysql.com/bug.php?id=91828 - Server 5.1 is not a supported MySQL version for Workbench. Supported versions are 5.5, 5.6, 5.7 and 8.0.

Not actionable just leaving a breadcrumb for anyone else with the issue... taken a while to work through both these issues and determine whats actually happening..

Hi,

I have the same problem.

A possible workaround is delete sql_workspace directory. rm -rf ~/.mysql/workbench/sql_workspaces

This is pretty old and stale. Still happening with latest pkgs?
