MySQL Workbench crash


Solution

  • I had the same problem and made a post about it here:

    MySQL Workbench Freezing when Starting/Stopping Server

    Unfortunately no one was able to give a solution to how to do it from workbench.

    But luckily you can do it from outside the workbench. Open the "Services" app on your PC (I assume you're using Windows, may be worth clarifying...) look for "MySQL80" (or something similar to that depending on your MySQL version), click it, and use the controls there to start and stop your MySQL server.

    This can be automated with a Powershell script as well if you're that lazy like me.
