Workbench not creating Server Instances
I am using MySQL Server 5.6, as a Windows service.
The MySQL Server service is running, because it starts up automatically.
I am using Workbench v5.2.47 CE.
Both were installed using the MySQL Installer.
I am running as a user with administrative privileges.
NOTE: This all is running on Windows 8.
I am attempting to create a new server instance.
1. I go to the main page and click on the "New Server Instance" link.
2. My service is local, so I select localhost and click Next.
3. I do not change anything in the subsequent screen (because I know, after a lot of attempts, that this will not work). Because I am doing administration, I leave the login at root. I click on Next.
4. Workbench tests the connection to my service. All tests succeed. I click on Next.
5. The subsequent window that comes up says "No MySQL Service Found". The comboox has nothing in it. And because it cannot find my running service I cannot proceed at all.
6. I have tried restarting the system several times (this seemed to solve a similar problem with Server 5.5), but the problem persits.
Have I found a bug in this Workbench? Or is there some way that I can make it find my MySQL service?
Someone please advise.
