Changes in MySQL Workbench 6.2.5 (2015-03-03)

    Bugs Fixed

      * The Options File editor would display the equals sign
        character ("=") as a space (" ") when the equals sign was
        used in an option's value. (Bug #20404658)

      * The bundled MySQL client was upgraded to MySQL 5.6.23.
        (Bug #20375565)

      * The Fedora RPM would not install on Fedora 21 due to
        missing ctemplate dependencies. This is due to changes
        introduced in ctemplate version 0.97, where the
        "ReloadIfChanged" function was replaced with
        "ReloadAllIfChanged". (Bug #20323716, Bug #75421)

      * On Linux with FIPS (Federal Information Processing
        Standard) enabled, MySQL Workbench would fail to connect
        and emit a "Cannot start SSH tunnel manager" error.
        Creating local connections on FIPS enabled systems is now
        functional, although SSH tunneling (for remote
        connections) remains unavailable due to limitations with
        the underlining paramiko library. (Bug #20236376, Bug
        #75262)

      * On Windows, MySQL Workbench failed to schedule weekly or
        monthly MySQL Enterprise Backup backups.
        As a workaround, change "/ST " to " /ST " on lines 754
        and 757 of mysqlwbmeb.vbs. (Bug #20174892)

      * Executing Data Export could fail and emit unhandled
        exception: 'builtin_function_or_method' object has no
        attribute '__getitem__';. (Bug #20168180, Bug #75136)

      * The Linux RPM builds failed to check for the libzip and
        libtinyxml dependencies, and the installation process
        would continue when the system did not have either of
        them installed. (Bug #20128947, Bug #75012)

      * The model synchronization wizard would produce an
        incorrect synchronization SQL script if table or column
        mappings were modified. The generated script did not
        contain all of these modifications. (Bug #20128561, Bug
        #74878)

      * The Connection Group folders would not properly display
        all connections when 40+ connections were stored in a
        single folder. (Bug #20119383, Bug #74763)

      * On Linux, the action buttons were hidden after clicking
        Next from the initial Forward Engineer wizard menu.
        As a workaround, the window could be resized by dragging
        the bottom right corner, or by double clicking the top of
        the window to resize the window. (Bug #20091734, Bug
        #74983)

      * Executing Data Export against multiple databases with the
        Export to Dump Project Folder option enabled would fail
        and generate an unhandled exception; "Error Unhandled
        exception: 'builtin_function_or_method' object has no
        attribute '__getitem__'".
        As a workaround, an export with the Export to
        self-contained file option functioned properly. (Bug
        #20085036, Bug #74967)

      * On Linux, the Saved password in keychain functionality
        for a MySQL connection would not always save correctly. A
        possible workaround was to execute "export
        GNOME_KEYRING_CONTROL=1" before starting MySQL Workbench.
        (Bug #20074563, Bug #74771)

      * After editing a trigger once, future changes were not
        seen. Other triggers were no longer visible until the
        table was closed and reopened.
        As a workaround; after editing a trigger, click Apply
        from the "Select an existing trigger" screen, click Apply
        again, then click on the trigger name for expected
        behavior. (Bug #20061687)

      * On Linux and OS X, creating a MySQL Enterprise Backup
        backup job with scheduling enabled would fail to
        function. (Bug #20034934, Bug #74872)

      * When clicking the Replace and Find button in the SQL
        editor without selected text, a replace-string was
        inserted at the current cursor position before the editor
        highlighted the next match. If instead text was selected,
        the selected text was also replaced with the
        replace-string even if it did not match the found-string.
        Now, selected text does not affect the "Replace and Find"
        functionality. (Bug #19957424, Bug #76499)

      * On Linux, the query result view did not populate with
        libglib version 2.42 and above. This affected Linux
        distributions that recently upgraded libglib, such as
        Ubuntu 14.10 and OpenSUSE 13.2.
        To solve this, additional builds were added. For example,
        Ubuntu 14.10 builds are now available as Ubuntu 14.04
        builds fail on Ubuntu 14.10. (Bug #19831054, Bug #74147)

      * MySQL Workbench did not show the index type for spatial
        indexes. (Bug #19802579, Bug #74332)

      * The Synchronize Model wizard would fail on forward
        engineered tables that had hash partitioning enabled and
        then disabled. It assumed that partitioning was still
        enabled. (Bug #19515501, Bug #72909)

      * Opening a model from the operating system's file explorer
        (and not from within MySQL Workbench itself) would add
        duplicate entries to each table's context menu in the
        schema explorer. (Bug #19313268, Bug #73363)

      * Attempts to install the SYS performance helper schema
        with a "Local Socket/Pipe" enabled MySQL connection would
        fail, and do so without reporting an error. (Bug
        #19313081, Bug #73421)

      * Under User Accounts, attempting to change the password
        for the default 'root'@'::1' user would fail and with
        "Invalid host specification: The host specification "::1"
        is not valid. Please correct it and try again.". (Bug
        #19313045, Bug #73420)

      * The measurement units used by the performance reports
        were sometimes incorrect. (Bug #19273555, Bug #73344)

      * The results grid rendering functionality was improved.
        Before, some queries took an unreasonable amount of time
        to display the results. (Bug #18952956, Bug #72946)

      * Clicking Revert after adding a trigger under the Alter
        Table's Triggers tab would fail to remove the trigger
        name from the trigger list, although it did delete the
        trigger. (Bug #18492291)

      * The Reset saved passwords functionality did not always
        reset (delete) saved passwords in the vault. (Bug
        #18492237)

      * Migrating from SQL Server 2005 to MySQL would emit
        "copytable: Invalid timestamp literal detected" errors if
        the source database contained a DATETIME column with one
        or more NULL values. (Bug #18117211, Bug #71350)

      * The buttons after executing "Data Export" or "Data
        Import/Restore" operations was changed from Start Import
        / Start Export to Import Again / Export Again. (Bug
        #17665484)

      * Due to "result grid" size limitations (e.g., 64k with GTK
        on Linux), the text there is truncated at some point.
        Now, an error is generated if the entered text will be
        truncated.
        To enter long text using the GUI, click Open Value in
        Editor from a fields context menu to open an editor
        window. (Bug #14383416, Bug #66031)

      * Importing a DBDesigner 4 model containing INSERT
        statements could crash MySQL Workbench. (Bug #12949941,
        Bug #62317)

      * The DBDoc Model Reporting window was undersized. (Bug
        #12937567)

      * Pasting a "Start of Heading" (SOH) control character into
        the SQL editor could cause MySQL Workbench, and
        potentially the system, to crash. (Bug #74593, Bug
        #19899245)

      * On Windows, closing MySQL Workbench after opening the SQL
        editor would cause a MySQL Workbench process to hang
        (remain active).
        On Linux and OS X, this instead delayed the MySQL
        Workbench shutdown for several extra seconds.
