No schema panel present in MySQL workbench in Ubuntu


I am using MySQL Workbench Version 8.022 on Ubuntu 20.04 OS. Strangely there is no schema panel present in MySQL workbench window and I can't manage to find a way to display the schema panel.

I have installed the snap edition of MySQL-Workbench-Community

Following is the screenshot -

Solution

  • The problem seems to be with the snap package I guess. I removed the snap package -

    sudo snap remove mysql-workbench-community
    

    Then I went to the link https://dev.mysql.com/downloads/workbench/ to download the MySQL-Workbench-Community for my version of OS.

    For me it was mysql-workbench-community_8.0.26-1ubuntu20.04_amd64.deb

    Then I installed it from the terminal using the command -

    sudo gdebi mysql-workbench-community_8.0.26-1ubuntu20.04_amd64.deb
    

    Now I open MySQL-Workbench -

    As shown in the screenshot, this time I have the Schemas tab to the right side of Administration tab. I click on the Schemas tab -

    As shown in the screenshot, now my Schemas Panel is open.
