Install MySQL Workbench on Linux (Centos)

# yum install mysql-workbench-community -y

Verify if vnc server is installed


[root@centos01 ~]# rpm -qa | grep -i vnc
# yum install tigervnc-server
https://www.tecmint.com/install-and-configure-vnc-server-in-
centos-7/

Login with the user you want to run the VNC program with. In my case its root.
# vncpasswd

Now, add a VNC service configuration file for your user via a daemon
configuration file placed in systemd directory tree
[root@centos01 ~]# ls -l /lib/systemd/system/vnc*
-rw-r--r--. 1 root root 1707 Apr 5 09:49
/lib/systemd/system/[email protected]
cp /lib/systemd/system/[email protected]
/etc/systemd/system/vncserver@:1.service
vi /etc/systemd/system/vncserver@:1.service
Alternatively:
[root@centos01 ~]# useradd vnc
[root@centos01 ~]# passwd vnc
Login as vnc user

$ vncpasswd
yum install xclock -y
# systemctl daemon-reload
# systemctl start vncserver@:1
# systemctl status vncserver@:1
# systemctl enable vncserver@:1
