table not editable mysql workbench error

Question

I have a table that has no primary key. All I want to do is see the data. I DO NOT WANT TO EDIT IT. Yet, whenever I run this query...

SELECT * FROM TableThatHasNoPrimaryKey

MySQL Workbench (version 5.2.36 v8542, running on Ubuntu 10.04 64 bit) gives me this error...

table data is not editable because there is no primary key defined for the table

Is this a bug? This query displays the data just fine on MySQL browser.

Answer 1

I found this on internet:

try this launch the workbench using:

"mysql-workbench --log-level=debug3"
