What’s the problem??? It’s greyed out!!!

Most likely you’re not connected to your database server. Otherwise provide a screenshot of your problem.

Hi,

how do I connect to my database server?

Thanks

Does it say ‘unconnected’ in the top left?

If it does click on the database tab at the top and select connect to database.

Hi,

Thank you!

But it opens a new worksheet (blank) the original is still greyed out.?

Thanks

p.s. ( it did say unconnected in the top left)

If it says unconnected click on ‘Database’ at the top, then select ‘Connect to database’

can you send a screenshot?

I selected ‘connect to dtabase’ but it’s still not working!

It opens a new blank sheet.

The tab is still unconnected. You need to execute the script in a connected tab.

HOW?

poooooooooooost must 20 characters

Try

→ shutting down then restarting workbench
→ Choose Local instance MySQL80 (under MySQL connections on home screen)
- make sure username is root

→ Once database has loaded click on ‘Server’ (at the top next to Database)
→ then select Server status - make sure its running
→ Ctrl+shift+o then navigate to the course script 'create-databases)
→ Run script

You have two connected tabs open. Open the script file in one of them or copy the contents of the unconnected tab into one of the connected ones.
