If you do not want to compile it yourself you can go to:
Applications→Ubuntu Software Center→Edit→Software Sources→Updates
there you can check hardy-proposed is ticked(for 14.10 will be utopic-proposed)
Source
then simply go to terminal and type:
sudo apt-get install mysql-workbench
As a note, you will get other updates to, witch may not be stable!!!
The result set wasn't showing for me either. I was able to make it appear by hiding the output area and running a simple select statement. Then I "show"ed the output area again and had what I was looking for -- both the result set and the output area
New to MySql myself and found this is happening on Windows as well. Goto Query > Explain Current Statement > click on the Results Grid icon on the far right of the Visual Explain window that shows by default. You may have to toggle through the up down arrow icons to see it.
I'm using MySqlWorkbench 6.3.9 on macOS and has this problem. I removed the app and installed 6.3.10 which solves the problem.
Here's a solution for Ubuntu 15.04 users running Mysql Workbench 6.2.3.
I was able to resolve the issue of missing results in the Mysql workbench by just upgrading mysql-workbench to version 6.3.3 from http://dev.mysql.com/downloads/workbench/. You will need to download the one marked for Ubuntu 14.10. An install via Ubuntu software center resolved the issue. Hope this helps.
MySQL Workbench 6.3.4 fixes this issue. Custom builds are not needed anymore.
