FullText = System.Runtime.InteropServices.SEHException: Eine externe Komponente hat eine Ausnahme ausgelöst.
   bei MySQL.Forms.DrawBoxImpl.drawbox_mouse_click(Object sender, MouseEventArgs e)

   bei System.Windows.Forms.Control.WmMouseUp(Message& m, MouseButtons button, Int32 clicks)

How to repeat:
Home-Screen
Goto Server-Adminstration
Enter new (first) Server Instance (did not fill out 2nd tab)
Click Manage Import/Export --> Popup for connect appears
Now select the "new isntance" and "Ok" --> Error-Dialog with "Unexpected Error" appears, Exception see above.

Reproducable always.

Hi Norbert,

can you repeat the problem and give us instructions on how to do so too?
Please also try latest release (5.2.17)
thanks in advance

Hi,

1. "give us instructions on how to do so too?"
Read the section in "how to repeat", I already filed text in this section, anything unclear?

2. Can not reproduce it today, seems that computers need vacations, too.

3. Try it on your own if you can reproduce it. If not: close and forget.

Regards, Norbert

Thank you for the feedback.

I don't understand what "Enter new (first) Server Instance (did not fill out 2nd tab)" means. Please explain.

Please also try with current version 5.2.19.

Replying to "I don't understand what "Enter new (first) Server Instance (did not
fill out 2nd tab)" means. Please explain."

Simple: when you open "MySQL Workbench", on the right side you have "Server Admin" and below a link to add a "New Server Instance". The error occured when I added the first, new server-instance. When adding it, in the second step a dialog with a tabbed-pane pops up, I only filled out "Parameters" but not "Advanced".

Thank you for the feedback.

I tried same in my environment and can not repeat crash with version 5.2.19. Please try with version 5.2.19 in yours when you have time, so we can be sure bug is not repeatable anymore.
