Heads-up: You can (with your helper of choice) directly install heidisql-client instead of this package, avoiding the need to install a provider afterward.


The package now provides the native Linux version of HeidiSQL. It's currently in a beta state so expect bugs. See the known bugs here

To copy your settings:
Click on File > Import settings and select /home/username/.heidisql/portable_settings.txt (use CTRL+H in the file picker to show hidden directories)


There is also the old version available as heidisql-wine.


It now also builds from source and provides variants for both GTK and Qt.


As a last alternative if you don't want to build from source we still have heidisql-gtk2-bin.

Perhaps it's better to include a bundled copy of wine with this package?

Same with wine-4.7-1

I updated the package to 10.1.0.5539 but unfortunately it also crashes on wine-4.6-1. Had to downgrade to wine-4.5-1 as @miamm suggested.

I can confirm that heidisql 10.1.0.5473-1 crashes after updating to wine-4.6-1.

After upgrading wine to 4.6-1, heidisql crashes on start for me. When downgrading to wine-4.5-1, it works again. I am using HeidiSQL-10.1.0.5473.

Anyone else?

For those who want to use with Postgresql follow Aphex's and bjesus's suggestions.

First symlink necessary libraries (ignore errors):

ln -s /usr/share/heidisql/*.dll ~/.heidisql/

And then install the lib32-libldap package.

Need help with upgrading. I modified PKGBUILD (heidisqlrelease=5295 and updated md5sums). Run makepkg -si PKGBUILD - all OK - no errors.

After I get only this when trying to start: version : 9.5.0.5295 exception message : Access violation at address 7C583BF8 in module 'd2d1.dll'. Read of address 00000000.

FOUND A SOLUTION - winecfg (Libraries > Overrides d2d1 (Native Windows)) https://github.com/HeidiSQL/HeidiSQL/issues/83#issuecomment-375969129

@liviucmg Tried on only one monitor and works OK. Tried also only on "left" monitor and it works OK. When I drag the window to the "right" monitor it stops working completely (no click registered at all). Thanks - working on most left monitor will be alright for now. Posted on HeidiSQL forums : https://www.heidisql.com/forum.php?t=25661#p25661

EDIT 2018-10-26 As of today this is fixed - cannot reproduce it anymore. Don't know why and what has been updated - probably some package like Xorg or KDE apps. I am using build 9.5.0.5295.

@hrvoj3e That's most probably an upstream bug, better to report it here: https://github.com/HeidiSQL/HeidiSQL/issues

I do have a similar issue on multi-monitor setups, on both KDE and XFCE. I can't click on anything if my window is on the right-most monitor.

https://pasteboard.co/HBpW7On.gif I can't click on anything - all clicks go to first clickable item on the left side. I'm using two monitors. Please help me resolve this behavior shown in linked GIF (track the mouse). Is this heidisql bug or kde or wine or what?
