Bug #87167	MySQL Workbench does to connect to local server
Submitted:	22 Jul 2017 9:02	Modified:	22 Jul 2017 21:40

Category:	MySQL Workbench	Severity:	S3 (Non-critical)
Version:	6.3.9	OS:	MacOS (10.13 Beta)
Assigned to:		CPU Architecture:	Any

Description:
Since I upgraded to the beta of macOS I am unable to connect to any database, using the workbench.

The connection test is successful, but when I click the connection in the dashboard, the status is "connecting..." until I quit the application.

The schema modelling part of the Workbench does not seem to be affected.

Also I am able to connect to the databases via the command line.

Re-Installing the application did not help, neither does it work on any other macOS 10.13 system.

How to repeat:
1) Create a connection to any database
2) Test the connection, result should be successful
3) Save the connection
4) From the connection overview, click the new connection

The status will now stay on "connecting...", until the application is quit.

Suggested fix:
I have realised, that the command line tool "telnet" is not present anymore. Is there a chance, this is related?
