Status:	Can't repeat	Impact on me:	None
Category:	MySQL Workbench	Severity:	S2 (Serious)
Version:	5.2.16	OS:	Windows (Win 7 64)
Assigned to:		CPU Architecture:	Any

Description:
If I open a connection in WorkBench and close the tab quickly after opening the connection, WorkBench will crash.  The error details from the event log are:

Faulting application name: MySQLWorkbench.exe, version: 5.2.15.5053, time stamp: 0x4b69b797
Faulting module name: wbpublic.be.dll, version: 0.0.0.0, time stamp: 0x4b69b26a
Exception code: 0xc0000005
Fault offset: 0x0009b7fa
Faulting process id: 0x%9
Faulting application start time: 0x%10
Faulting application path: %11
Faulting module path: %12
Report Id: %13

How to repeat:
Open a connection and close it right away.

Suggested fix:
Don't crash :)

Additionally, if needed I can run a debug on this to provide additional information.  I have made it crash at least 10-15 times, so I know I can replicate the issue at will.

not able to reproduce on my box (win7 x64), sounds like a race condition though.

I should add that the connection is to a remotely located database and the database is large, so fetching the table information takes a few seconds.  It seems to be that closing the tab while the data is still fetching is what causes the problem.  I can still replicate this at will, so if any debugging of the issue is required please let me know.

Is there something interesting in server error log?

Nope, nothing in the log actually.  I don't know why there would be, though, given that this is a problem with coding on the client.  I agree with Johannes that this sounds very much like a race condition exists.

Please try 5.2.16 and according the steps you do to hit the crash could be a duplicate bug report. Thanks in advance.

Yes, this is still happening in 5.2.16.  It is very easy to reproduce, just open a new tab, and while it is still loading click the close tab button.  Here are the error details of the crash in 5.2.16 from windows event log:

Thank you for the feedback.

Please try with current version 5.2.19 and if problem still exists provide more information about how you connect to the servers: are they local or remote, do you use specific connect options?

I beleive this is now fixed in 5.2.19 as I cannot reproduce it anymore.  The connections were remote, SSL and compression enabled, but that shouldn't matter anymore.  Thanks!
