Could not stop/start server: expected a character buffer object

(Bug #58400)

When exporting a record set using the SQL INSERT statements file format, a number of issues were found:

(Bug #58377, Bug #56950)

In the SQL Editor, selecting the default database where the server contained only a single database had no effect. To avoid a “No database selected” error, the database had to be selected in a script using the USE statement. (Bug #58274)

Autotools were required to be installed locally to build MySQL Workbench from source. (Bug #58263)

The MySQL Workbench tarball contained cached Autotools information. (Bug #58261)

In the SQL Editor, right-clicking a table name and selecting Alter table did not launch the Alter table dialog as expected. This happened if the table name utilized mixed case letters. (Bug #58223)

Results for queries on rows that contained a null byte (\0) were truncated at the null byte character when displayed in the SQL Editor results pane. (Bug #58099)

In the Server Access Management tab of the Administrator no user accounts were displayed. Further, attempting to create a new account resulted in an exception. (Bug #57941)

In the Reverse Engineer SQL Script wizard, on the Input and Options page, the button to select the SQL script file had the text “Brow” instead of “Browse”. (Bug #57929)

The commands to arrange objects were not enabled in the EER Diagram view. This rendered it impossible to move objects to the back or bring them to the front. (Bug #57907)

When setting the data type of a column to DOUBLE with precision specified, the data type reverted to DOUBLE without the desired precision specifiers. This happened in both the Table Editor and the SQL Editor. (Bug #57865)

In the Columns tab of the Table Editor, double-clicking to edit or add a new column caused the window to scroll to the top. (Bug #57793)

An error message contained a spelling mistake:

Line 437 of .\backend\wbprivate\workbench\wb_context_ui_home.cpp:
std::string msg = strfmt("Error in sercurityManager module: %s",err.what());

(Bug #57684)

In the SQL Editor tab of the Workbench Preferences dialog, if the OK button was not clicked centrally, it was possible to accidentally select or deselect one of the options Treat BINARY/VARBINARY as nonbinary character string or Enable Data Changes Commit Wizard. (Bug #57669)

For a column of type TIMESTAMP, the menu items Default CURRENT_TIMESTAMP and Default CURRENT_TIMESTAMP ON UPDATE CURRENT_TIMESTAMP in the context-sensitive menu of the Columns tab of the Table Editor were grayed out. This occurred where a preceding column of type TIMESTAMP was allocated an explicit default value. MySQL Workbench should not have prevented setting a value using the context-sensitive menu for the second defined column in this case. (Bug #57665)

A script file that was converted to the cp850 character set was truncated on loading into the SQL Editor. (Bug #57636)

The forward engineering process generated SQL code that quoted boolean values, causing incorrect cast values. When a table contained the logical BOOLEAN type for a field it was converted to TINYINT(1) as expected. However, the values that were supplied for any inserts were quoted, as in this example:

INSERT INTO mytable (id,flag) VALUES (NULL,'TRUE');

(Bug #57545)

The SQL Editor generated these errors if a query ran longer than 30 seconds:

Error Code: 2013  Lost connection to MySQL server during query
Error Code: 2006  MySQL server has gone away

(Bug #57449)

Operation failed: File  doesn't exist

(Bug #56911)

Find and Find and replace did not work in the SQL Query tab. (Bug #56898)

Backups dumped to a project folder (file per table) were restored in no particular order. This made it difficult to resume a problematic restore at a specific point. (Bug #56897)

Creating a many-to-many relationship between two tables resulted in only one index being generated. (Bug #56613)

MySQL Workbench crashed when a snippet in the snippet list was right-clicked. (Bug #56588)

When saving over a read-only file, MySQL Workbench changed the file permissions to read/write. (Bug #56403)

In the Reverse Engineer Database wizard, the ability to select the default schema on the Connection Options page was superfluous. (Bug #56179)

In the Connections tab of the Administrator, scrolling did not work correctly with large numbers of connections. (Bug #56144)

When multiple tabs were open in the Administrator, with each connected to a different server, and with export of a database was set up in each, running an export operation resulted in errors. This occurred because MySQL Workbench attempted to export a database selected in a tab other than the currently selected one. (Bug #56113)

Deleting routine groups from the EER Diagram view did not delete routines. (Bug #56084)

If a MWB file was double-clicked to open, but MySQL Workbench was already running, a new instance of MySQL Workbench was launched, rather than opening the file in a new tab in the currently running instance. (Bug #56067)

In the SQL Editor, in the Foreign Key tab of the new-table dialog, it was not possible to select any of the foreign key check boxes. (Bug #56024)

In the SQL Editor, it was not possible to create a foreign key relationship between two tables. (Bug #55399)

In the Table Editor, if a data type was selected for a column, this was immediately reflected on the EER Diagram view. However, if the selection was reverted by pressing Control+Z, the EER Diagram was not updated to reflect this, and continued to display the original data type. (Bug #55348)

In the EER Diagram view, a copied object could not be pasted, if the object had previously been pasted and then edited. (Bug #55336)

In the User Defined Data Types Editor, clicking the button to edit the argument list caused the Argument List Editor dialog to be drawn beneath the current dialog. As the dialog with focus could not be accessed, this meant it was not possible to proceed with editing and MySQL Workbench had to be closed. (Bug #55242)

The Modified time displayed in the Model Overview was incorrectly set to the current time. (Bug #55237)

Selecting a Refresh or Refresh all button or menu item caused the list of tables and views in the sidebar to become empty. (Bug #55214)

Generated INSERT statements did not include quote characters for TEXT or DATE columns. (Bug #54910)

In the SQL Editor, when viewing table data where the number of columns was such that some columns were offscreen, if the End key was pressed to go to the last column in the row, the data grid did not scroll accordingly, so the column containing the cursor was not visible without manually scrolling. (Bug #54753)

In the Diagram view switching between tables caused erroneous carriage returns to be added to the DDL code in the Triggers tab. (Bug #54411)

The error message displayed when the mysqldump version needed updating was not informative enough. (Bug #54209)

In the Administrator, system health displayed NO DATA. (Bug #52151)

Formatting of view code entered in the View Editor was not retained after synchronization of the model with the server. (Bug #52004)
