'Error on client connections: invalid values of 'columnLabel'

I am MySQL user with workbench and Amazon RDS

Every time I try to access MySQL client connections I get this error:

enter image description here

Unhandled exception:
DbMySQLQuery.resultFieldStringValueByName():
MySQL_ResultSet::isNull: invalid values of 'columnLabel'

Check the log for more details

enter image description here

The user I am using has all the accesses of an admin/root

This error does not happen to all users, only to some

Am I forgetting to provide some kind of permission?



Solution 1:[1]

There is a solution in this link that worked for me on version 8.0.28:

https://bugs.mysql.com/bug.php?id=102465

See entry "[3 Feb 16:10] Adam Latchem"

Solution 2:[2]

The proposed solution "[3 Feb 16:10] Adam Latchem" worked for me, in the context of MySQL Workbench connecting to a MariaDB database. The fix (for definiteness) is to edit the file C:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Workbench 8.0 CE\modules\wb_admin_connections.py at line 346, to change it from

("DB", mforms.StringColumnType, "DB", 100),

to

("db", mforms.StringColumnType, "DB", 100),

(note change of case in first argument).
