Hi Harsha!
Thanks for reaching out.
After creating the tables, can you please click on the tiny refresh schema icon in the bottom-left part of the screen, and then retry checking the DDL tab?
If this doesn't help, I am afraid that the error may reflect a bug associated to one of the recent MySQL Workbench versions. Nevertheless, please support your question with screenshots if that is the case, so that we can try to assist you better.
Hope this helps.
Best,
Martin
I have the same problem. It shows up in DDL and schemas but not in FK section (I click the refreshed button on the bottom right corner). Also if I may ask too, I made sure to select ON Update NO Action but why does it show ON UPDATE Restrict on the definition? I appreciate the response!
I have the same problem, I can't find the foreign key in the foreign keys tab, any solution, please?
Hi Gilliane and Mohamed!
Thanks for reaching out.
This is a well-known bug in the Workbench. You can continue with the smooth taking of the course.
Hope this helps.

Thanks for your reply, appreciated.
Hi everyone,
Just want to make sure that, the bug still remains !?
Thanks!
Hi Chun Hsien!
Thanks for reaching out and please excuse us for the belated answer.
If the bug persists for too long, please reload Workbench and reload the database. This should hopefully solve the issue but please feel free to get back to us should you need further assistance. Thank you.
Kind regards,
Martin
