Description:
This morning a few updates was installed on my computer. Among these updates were a couple of X11 updates. After the updates were installed, MySQL Workbench will not longer start.
I've downloaded and installed the latest version, but it keeps crashing. When i start the application from the command line, I get the following output:
** (mysql-workbench-bin:2362): WARNING **: /home/[user]/.mysql/workbench/starters_settings.xml:5: link 'com.mysql.wb.starter.bug-reporter' <object > key= could not be resolved
** (mysql-workbench-bin:2362): WARNING **: skipping element 'link' in unserialized document, line 5
Log levels '0111000'
Ready.
The program 'mysql-workbench-bin' received an X Window System error.
This probably reflects a bug in the program.
The error was 'BadLength (poly request too large or internal Xlib length erro'.
(Details: serial 300 error_code 16 request_code 153 minor_code 17)
(Note to programmers: normally, X errors are reported asynchronously;
that is, you will receive the error a while after causing it.
To debug your program, run it with the --sync command line
option to change this behavior. You can then get a meaningful
backtrace from your debugger if you break on the gdk_x_error() function.)
How to repeat:
I've got a Dell Latitude D620 with Intel GMA945 graphics. The following updates were installed on my computer today, and after that Workbench refuse to start:
