It's the relationship created by the native MySQL connector
I am using the new built in native MySQL Connector. When creating a new
relationship between two tables, rather than relating the foreign key of one
table to the primary key of the other; a relationship is created between the
foreign key and itself! This is seen in Tools > Relationship in the main
database window where every primary-foreign relationship shows this.
Example: "tableA"."primary key" should be related to "tableB"."foreign key"
Instead:
"tableB"."foreign key: is related to "tableB"."foreign key"
The problems seems to be in the new MySQL connector. When connecting to the
same database using either MySQL(JDBC) [mysql-connector-java-5.1.45,
mysql-connector-java-8.0.13], Tools > Relationships shows the proper
primary-foreign key pairs.
The database was created in the following way:
1) Using the database wizard, I selected "Connect to an existing database and
selected "MySQL from the drop down menu.
2) Selected "Connect directly"
3) I entered the database name and listed localhost as the server.
4) I entered my user name and checked "password required"
5) Selected "Yes, register the database for me." I checked "Open the database
for editing."</pre>
