Question

i downloaded Mysql server for win64-bit machine from http://dev.mysql.com/downloads/mirror.php?id=409022 this link. Then i installed the server.After completing the installation i ll not find workbench. Is workbench is necessary to create local database from the script file or we can use sqlYog to create local database from the script file.

tell me which one is best workbench or SqlYog..?

if workbench is best then , then tell me how to get workbench for mysql-5.5.27-winx64 server.

Answer 1

Sqlyog is the best to create database or export from script file . mysql work bench is not used for this purpose , it is basically used to reverse engineer any existing database and design a database . So use SQl yog to create local database ,from script file .

Mysql work bench wont come along with mysql , you can download it from here . It is a separate tool

If you could setup a LAMP stack , you can use phpmyadmin which is also a good tool to use.
