How to do a query in Mysql WorkBench?


I have an .sql script that contains inserts and creates tables. I used the "Create EER Model From Script"

It created the tables but I can't see the data inside these tables.

I went to the query menu and tried to make a query but it gives me an error about not being able to connect to localhost.

Am I doing it right?


Solution

  • As documented under Create EER Model from SQL Script:

    Clicking this action item launches the Reverse Engineer SQL Script wizard. This is a multi-stage wizard that enables you to select the script you want to create your model from.

    For further information, see Section 7.7.9.1, “Reverse Engineering Using a Create Script”.

    Following that link:

    However, if you are working with a script that also contains DML statements you need not remove them; they will be ignored.

    Instead, you want the Manage Data Import/Export option under Server Administration (within the Workspace section of the Home window).
