Ok, so I found that this has already been reported upstream to mysql, see: http://bugs.mysql.com/bug.php?id=74147
That bug says it's an incompatibility with libglib 2.42. There's a patch at http://bugs.mysql.com/file.php?id=21874&bug_id=74147 that fixes the problem. If you want to patch and build mysql-workbench yourself, you can get the source from for 6.2.3 from http://dev.mysql.com/downloads/file.php?id=453799. From the directory you downloaded it to, do: tar xvf mysql-workbench-community-6.2.3-src.tar.gz cd mysql-workbench-community-6.2.3-src wget -O patch-glib.diff http://bugs.mysql.com/file.php?id=21874&bug_id=74147 patch -p0 < patch-glib.diff sudo apt-get build-dep mysql-workbench sudo apt-get install libgdal-dev cd build cmake .. -DBUILD_CONFIG=mysql_release make sudo make install ** Bug watch added: MySQL Bug System #74147 http://bugs.mysql.com/bug.php?id=74147 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1376154 Title: data grid not displaying resultset is blank To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/mysql-workbench/+bug/1376154/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
