Description:
When doing a MySQL query on Workbench (any query, really). It crashes. It happens multiple times a day a time, to a point where it's barely workable and I had to look into software alternative. MySQL Workbench is the best out there, and I'd like to keep using it.

After I try to execute the query in the SQL Editor, I always have the message "Workbench have encountered an error and must close down". The same query can crash 3-4 times in a row and the work on the fifth try without me changing anything.

How to repeat:
Run any query to a remote MySQL Database

Hi, guys.

I have the same problem in MySQL Workbench 6.3.7. It is closing when I run a Select. I realized that sometimes the Workbench closes or not depending just on the Where clause of the Select. It is more common to crashes with a more complex condition, usually involving strings, than a Where that does not involves strings. Another detail that I noticed, but I didn't prove, is that it is more difficult to close when the names of the objects are between backticks (`).

Thanks.

Marco

This happens to me as well on Windows 10 64-bit pro running MySQL Workbench 6.3.7 64-bit.

It is EXTREMELY annoying, and occurs approximately every 2-3 query executions no matter what the type (SELECT, UPDATE, DELETE, etc.)

Happening to me too, on Windows 10 Pro 64 bit.  Looking at using alternative software to get my job done...

I've attached a log file (visible to developers).

The crash is still occurring after the update to 6.3.8.

v6.3.8 seems to have fixed the issue for me.  Thanks!

Hello Jonathan,
