So I installed mysql and mysql workbench now my goal is to run 20 different queries on the schema and database I installed onto it. to install the schema and database I used File => Open Sql Script and then selected the schema then the database to install them. However I seem to have a issue where the lightning bolt icon you use to run scripts isn't high lighted and it's not allowing me to run anything and I don't know why.

How do I install MySQL Workbench properly? Can't connect to the SQLTools extension in VSCode.I'm new to the database scene, and can't seem to grasp how to create a successful SQL server that I can use to manipulate data. But nothing I'm doing seems to work.
Should I use Gitbash to access the terminal? I tried using my password to make a new query but it wouldn't work on the workbench. I don't know how to start the SQL server in addition to not knowing how to properly change the profile for the Workbench from a previous account. A new developer, such as myself, would appreciate any insight!
So that's really simple just install the mysql community server installer using this link https://dev.mysql.com/downloads/mysql/
Make sure to select the server only in the setup during installation if you are going to be using VS code as the client to manipulate sql queries
Then once that is done copy the bin path location from the mysql file directory (which is usually in the program files on your \C: drive on your computer) to the environment variables on your computer so that you can access mysql from the command line
Once that is done you can initialise a database from the normal command line but first type mysql -u root -p to start mysql in the command line
Then download the sql tools extension on vs code and create the database that wish
I have been doing an update to a purchase app that I developed some time ago. One of the changes I've been doing is to replace the hard coded queries inside the program with MySQL functions.
The MySQL server is version 8.0 and its running in Ubuntu 18.04 server. I am aware there are a lot of bugs specially with permissions still going around in the Linux version of MySQL.
The problem I am facing now is that I can run the functions on MySQL Workbench but when trying to execute the function from VB.NET I always get a user permission error. I already give the user the permission just to execute those functions and I am using the same user in the app than in MySQL Workbench.
Does any one know a solution for this, or there is a special permission that I need to assign in order to execute functions from any other application besides MySQL Workbench?
I previously used MySQL Workbench to do this, in an environment that was already set up.
How do I set up a minimal working environment to just create and join tables on my own computer? (Connections???)
More details:
I downloaded and installed MySQL Workbench, and I can't even run SELECT sysdate();. There's a red x next to it. If I try "CREATE DATABASE MY_DATABASE; there's a green check, but the execute button is grey.
Doing some reading I apparently need "connections." Reading about that, I apparently need to also install MySQL Database Server. Who knows what else.
So, again, the question is how do I set up a minimally working environment to just create tables from .csv files, join them with MySQL commands, and export the results to another .csv file? (I know the syntax of the command to import a .csv file, and how to join tables.)
Thanks.
Install MySQL WorkBench AND MySQL Server.
From the command line, in the directory where MySQL server is installed, execute "mysqld --initialize" (One time only.)
execute "mysqld" from the command line, after the initialization given in step 1, and after any reboots. (It runs in the background, and doesn't exit when you exit MySQL WorkBench. (It can optionally be installed as an automatically running Windows service during installation.)
Execute Database -> Connect to Database upon starting MySQL WorkBench (each time you start the application). The default local host connection works fine.
After doing File -> New Model and setting up table(s), do Database -> Forward Engineer. This will place your new database in the Schemas section on the home/main window.
Double click on the Schema you created (default name is mydb) and it changes to bold font. Now scripts you run from that main window will run against the database you created.
I am running Mac OS 10.10.2. I have recently been educating myself about php and SQL in order to create an online database application for my employer. However, I have been unable to load up my MySQL databases in phpMyAdmin. I have tried following some advice from this forum, but no answers seem to solve my issue.
I installed MySQLWorkbench (Ver. 6.2.4.12437) as well as XAMPP (Ver. 5.6.3-0), and was using phpMyAdmin to have a play around and better understand what I was getting myself into. I then found one of those follow-the-bouncing-ball type teaching websites which advised me to download and install the MySQL community server (Currently running Ver. 5.6.23)
As instructed, I was learning SQL commands through Terminal and built up some databases/tables this way. I decided I wanted to jump into phpMyAdmin where I felt it'd be easier to continue my work. At first XAMPP was unable to turn on the servers which I overcame by uninstalling and reinstalling. Then I was getting a #2002 error when trying to access phpMyAdmin. I tinkered with config files and put in details relating to my localhost MySQL server (Or at least I assume as much).
I was able to get back into phpMyAdmin finally, but my databases made through terminal are not there.
phpMyAdmin shows: cdcol (the example database), information_schema, mysql, performance_schema, phpmyadmin, and test.
If I open terminal and punch in 'mysql' then 'SHOW DATABASES;' it only lists: information_schema.
If I open terminal and punch in 'mysql' with username 'root' and my password, then 'SHOW DATABASES;' it lists: information_schema, mysql, performance_schema, my tutorial/learning database, and my business database. I dropped the test database from here. THESE are what I want to bring up in phpMyAdmin.
I can only guess that I haven't got it configured properly to access this last mysql server, but I can't determine where I am going wrong. If anyone can shed some light on this, that'd be greatly appreciated.
It appears as if you have two MySQL instances; one from the XAMPP and also the MySQL Community Server that you installed yourself.
The "M" of XAMPP is for MySQL, so yes usually it runs its own MySQL server instance. That's sort of the point of the packaged kit, so you don't have to worry about having any of your own applications installed. In theory it should be no problem to stop the XAMPP MySQL instance and instead use your other one, but may require tweaking some configuration files and is probably not supported. If you can make it work, I don't see a reason why it would be a problem, though.
My suggestion is to either use the complete XAMPP stack or roll your own installation rather than mix and match.
I have shell script. I want to convert mysql database to sqlite database.
I want to install cygwin.
Can anybody help in getting what packages i need to install ?
I tries a lot's but if i select all then it takes whole day and nothing happen or sometime it breaks installation.
