Description:
Running Fedora 10 x86_64 with latest updates installed.

I used to be able to use workbench without any serious issues but the program is completely unusable for me now.  When I installed the latest version any table, view, etc that I try to edit I get the following message:

"No suitable editor found for object of type 'MySQL Table'"

I even tried to compile my own from source still with the same issue.

How to repeat:
Start workbench.  Click add table, instantly I get the error dialog.

Aaron, thanks for the bug report. Could you please attach all output of workbench from the command line?

thanks!

Output when run from the command line:

[ahagopian@schwartz ~]$ mysql-workbench

The point is that Workbench's plugins are installed into /usr/lib64/mysql-workbench, but script in this release searches for them in /usr/lib/mysql-workbench. The issue will be fixed in the next release. For temp workaround you may use symlink from /usr/lib64/mysql-workbench to /usr/lib/mysql-workbench.

thanks!

The symlink makes this version usuable, thanks.

I couldn't repeat in Ubuntu 9.04 64-bit and 5.2.1.

The issue is specific to fedora 10 x86_64. Correct version of mysql-workbench script will be available from 5.1.13.

would it be possible to try it again with our currently release version (5.1.14) to check if all issues have been fixed?.

thx

Just tried 5.1.15 and its working as expected.  You can close this bug.

Thanks
