It hasn't been updated in a very long time. Constant crashes on Mojave. I have transitioned away to TablePlus and DataGrip. Too bad because it was a very good tool for quick edits.

I had a lot of trouble with Mojave and the crashing you are reporting is annoying. I’ve been using their test builds the past couple months with zero problems though.

+1 - use the test builds, they work and fixed all my problems.
Re:Sequel Pro – Open source macOS native MySQL GUI client by stephen123 on Friday January 18, 2019 @07:02AM (#18938699)
That bug is so annoying. Push a release!

What bug specifically? What is the symptom?
Re:Sequel Pro – Open source macOS native MySQL GUI client by tazard on Friday January 18, 2019 @09:08AM (#18939361)
Not sure which the parent was referring to, but everytime I close it, it crashes.
Re:Sequel Pro – Open source macOS native MySQL GUI client by danaris on Friday January 18, 2019 @10:08AM (#18939761)
In my experience, it's specifically every time you try to disconnect from a server. (I have connections set up for dev and production for a small project, and I try to keep the production connection open only when I need it...but if I open it, I need to keep it open or it crashes the whole app.)

Will try the test build.

Are you sure it's not actively being fixed? I see active development on GitHub with many commits. Have you reported the issue on GitHub as the website suggests?
Re:Sequel Pro – Open source macOS native MySQL GUI client by bithaze on Friday January 18, 2019 @03:14AM (#18937796)
It was fixed several months ago, apparently, but the fix still hasn't been released outside of a test build yet. There have been multiple issues opened (and closed as duplicates) but this[0] seems to be the original.

I too transitioned from Sequel Pro to TablePlus. Sequel Pro was buggy and wasn't supporting MySQL 8 properly.

TablePlus has been great.

Re:Sequel Pro – Open source macOS native MySQL GUI client by h1d on Friday January 18, 2019 @07:33PM (#18944429)
I'm afraid SequelPro may be coming to a dead end without a real active development (night lies occur but no stable release in years without latest MySQL support.)

I tried out TablePlus, but at the time they were lacking user management.

With that recent addition, it's been able to completely replace Sequel Pro and Postico for Postgres management

Re:Sequel Pro – Open source macOS native MySQL GUI client by ChristianGeek on Friday January 18, 2019 @12:09AM (#18937181)
Love DataGrip...was a big Sequel Pro fan until I started on a project with PostgreSQL and found DataGrip. Haven’t looked back. (I’m now using DataGrip for MySQL as well.)
Re:Sequel Pro – Open source macOS native MySQL GUI client by xref on Friday January 18, 2019 @01:01AM (#18937343)
Have you used Postico? I have both it and DataGrip but find myself primarily in Postico for Postgres, feels lighter weight and easier to navigate
Re:Sequel Pro – Open source macOS native MySQL GUI client by larryzoumas on Friday January 18, 2019 @01:44AM (#18937483)
Agreed that Postico is amazing. Totally worth the $40 or whatever it costs.
Re:Sequel Pro – Open source macOS native MySQL GUI client by minusf on Friday January 18, 2019 @03:11AM (#18937778)
sadly neither postico nor tableplus can connect using an ssh certificate. this is becoming a big drawback in organisations switching to ssh certs instead of keys.
Re:Sequel Pro – Open source macOS native MySQL GUI client by hyperknot on Friday January 18, 2019 @05:56AM (#18938443)
TablePlus definitely can connect using SSH certificate. I'm using it like that right now.
Re:Sequel Pro – Open source macOS native MySQL GUI client by minusf on Friday January 18, 2019 @10:12AM (#18939800)
after pushing "over SSH" i see only importing a private key.

please note that i am talking about SSH certificate, not SSL certificate. https://ef.gy/hardening-ssh

Re:Sequel Pro – Open source macOS native MySQL GUI client by hyperknot on Friday January 18, 2019 @11:11AM (#18940252)
You are right, I thought you were talking about using private keys.
Re:Sequel Pro – Open source macOS native MySQL GUI client by huyphams on Friday January 18, 2019 @05:57AM (#18938452)
Hey! I'm the author of TablePlus and let check it.
Re:Sequel Pro – Open source macOS native MySQL GUI client by h1d on Friday January 18, 2019 @07:35PM (#18944442)
After a few months I couldn't stand the cluttered interface and generally I need to click twice more to achieve anything, I went back to SequelPro.
Re:Sequel Pro – Open source macOS native MySQL GUI client by phowat on Friday January 18, 2019 @07:07AM (#18938719)
That's weird. I use it daily on Mojave and have had zero crashes.
Re:Sequel Pro – Open source macOS native MySQL GUI client by jvagner on Friday January 18, 2019 @12:42PM (#18941077)
Seconded: TablePlus

Some of what I can do in there feels like magic.

Re:Sequel Pro – Open source macOS native MySQL GUI client by exabrial on Thursday January 17, 2019 @11:14PM (#18936985)
Use the nightly
Re:Sequel Pro – Open source macOS native MySQL GUI client by zapzupnz on Thursday January 17, 2019 @11:34PM (#18937063)
The last thing I want to use when dealing with data is a nightly. Yes, I have backups; those are for rainy days, not my own recklessness.
Re:Sequel Pro – Open source macOS native MySQL GUI client by fluxsauce on Friday January 18, 2019 @12:09AM (#18937184)
FWIW I had the same reaction, then upgraded due to the Mojave crashes and discovered that the nightly doesn't update that often and is stable. It's been fine for months.
Re:Sequel Pro – Open source macOS native MySQL GUI client by tomschlick on Friday January 18, 2019 @12:14AM (#18937201)
Same here. They really need to put out a release for it so people can auto update.
Re:Sequel Pro – Open source macOS native MySQL GUI client by larryzoumas on Friday January 18, 2019 @01:46AM (#18937496)
Yeah the crashes in Mojave were driving me crazy. Then to my surprise I tried the test build here and its way more stable and even has multiple filters, a feature I've been wanting for years. https://sequelpro.com/test-builds
Re:Sequel Pro – Open source macOS native MySQL GUI client by h1d on Friday January 18, 2019 @07:37PM (#18944459)
What is the reason for them from releasing a stable for years? Feels like it's dead without uncovering GitHub activities.
