In addition to the improvements on the application, we also updated our packaging procedure to provide a more up to date selection of packages for recent distributions. Along with the Windows and OSX (intel) binaries we now provide binaries for the following Linux distributions:

  2. To update using APT in Ubuntu, add the following line for Ubuntu 8.04/hardy:

    deb ftp://ftp.mysql.com/pub/mysql/download/gui-tools/ubuntu/ hardy wb51

    Or the following for 9.04/jaunty:

    deb ftp://ftp.mysql.com/pub/mysql/download/gui-tools/ubuntu/ jaunty wb51

    Both i386 and x86_64 binaries are available.

  3. By the way, what about OpenSUSE? Aren’t there packages for it?

  4. Is the SE version available? The download mirror doesn’t seem to be valid when updating.

  5. As for previous version, Fedora 9, 10 and 11 for i386, x86_64, ppc and ppc64 “Unofficial Builds” are available:

    A lot of work done on this RPM version to use available system libraries (curl, boost, libsigc++, cppconn and openssl instead of yassl) rather than bundled one.

  6. When 5.1.17 SE will be availble?

    By Mike on Aug 17, 2009

  7. The update function in SE points to the URL https://update.mysql.com/oem/mysql-workbench-se-5.1.17-win32.msi. However this returns a 404 error so the file isn’t available yet. When will it be available?

  8. sorry for the delay on the SE files, we are facing some problems with our publishing system – we’re currently fixing this

  9. Problems with the download-system for SE versions are fixed, files are finally available.
    sorry again for the inconvenience.

  10. It doesn`t work for me. I don`t know why but after login I can download only 5.1.16SE. 5.1.17SE is nowhere availble for me.

    Any clues?

    By Mike on Aug 18, 2009

  11. APT for Ubuntu 9.04 x64 – it is very well. Thanks!

  12. It won’t let me open an schema made in an older version :(

  13. Very good tool for editing and creating MySQL database, but whataheck is wrong with routine redactor?? it’1 keep hoping to random places, re-ordering procedures and such mess. Im using MS Vista Houme Premium SP2 with all upodates, 5.0.67 database version and 5.1.11 client.

    By user on Aug 20, 2009

  14. Carlos: what version was it saved on? Can you report a bug?

    user: Please try 5.1.17

    By akojima on Aug 20, 2009

  15. Mike: were you able to download 5.1.17SE? Is the problem that you click on the 5.1.17 download link and it fails? Or does it simply not list 5.1.17 for you? Have you tried forcing a reload of the page or something?

    By akojima on Aug 20, 2009

  16. I am an SE customer and bug #46875 (does not export foreign keys) essentially makes this release DOA. V16 suffered from INSERTs not being exported. How long before release 18 comes out, or how do I get access to bug fixes to 17 to make this release stable????

    By Dan on Aug 31, 2009

  17. Dan, Bug #46875 has been fixed and you will get that fix in release 5.1.18.

    By Mike Lischke on Aug 31, 2009

  18. Right – I know it has been fixed, hence my question. What is the time frame for release 18? Are there patches available for SE customers to fix this issue in the interim? I am running Workbench on XP.
