Bug 530000 – dev-db/mysql-workbench-6.2.3 - Error connecting to mysql through SSH tunnel

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Paulo Calvo 2014-11-20 22:57:41 UTC]

The following error is received while trying to access a mysql database using mysql-workbench-6.2.3 through an ssh tunnel:

Tunnel error: Remote connection to 127.0.0.1:3306 failed: AttributeError("'Transport' object has no attribute 'window_size'",)

I found the same bug reported in launchpad (https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/mysql-workbench/+bug/1385147) and it includes a comment with a patch (http://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/collab-maint/mysql-workbench.git/tree/debian/patches/paramiko.patch?id=206bf85ccc1b884b1542c04aded1cde3998bfa4f) which worked in my system through a local overlay.

I would like to ask that this patch is reviewed upstream and if possible included in portage.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create a new connection in mysql-workbench that includes an ssh tunnel
2. Save the connection
3. Connect

Please bare with me if this is not the proper channel to do this or if this needs to from from upstream

It looks like this is already fixed in mysql-workbench 6.2.4: http://dev.mysql.com/doc/relnotes/workbench/en/wb-news-6-2-4.html

I'll try to add that shortly.

I've backported this to mysql-workbench 6.2.3.
