Q: MYSQL Workbench Installation - Schemas Not connected I am new to SQL and just installed MYSQL Workbench in an attempt to make my first database.  I thought the installation went fine but when I click on Schemas it says "Not connected" and doesn't show any Schemas.  From what I understand, there should be a default schema there to use. 
I did also have to create a connection when i first opened workbench as there was no default there (from what I understand there should have been a default after installation). 
How can I check if my installation went ok or if there is something i'm missing?  Also, how can i connect to the default Schema?
