title: MySQL Workbench won't work with Google Cloud SQL Proxy
body: <p>I'm using Google Cloud SQL 2nd generation and installed <a href="https://cloud.google.com/sql/docs/sql-proxy" rel="nofollow" title="cloud-sql-proxy">cloud-sql-proxy</a> on my local machine.</p>
  
  <p>On my local machine I'd simply connect to 127.0.0.1:3306 and this has been working fine, in NodeJs, Php and using the mysql command line client.</p>
  
  <p>On Google App Engine Managed VM (flexible environment) i'm using unix_socket or socketPath '/cloudsql/MY_PROJECT_ID:us-central1:SQL_INSTANCE' this has been working fine too, in both, Php and NodeJs.</p>
  
  <p>What doesn't work is MySQL Workbench, I can't figure out how to get it to connect. Does it use another protocol or is cloud-sql-proxy for command line only ?</p>
  
  <p>Here is how I start cloud-sql-proxy</p>
  
  <p>this works:</p>
  
  <pre><code>./cloud_sql_proxy \
    -instances=MY_PROJECT:us-central1:MY_SQL_INSTANCE=tcp:3306 \
    -credential_file='/Users/ME/SomeFolder/MY_SERVICE_ACC_KEY.json'
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>after that I'd use MySQL Workbench to try to connect to 127.0.0.1:3306, but I always get an error :</p>
  
  <pre><code>SSL connection error: socket layer receive error
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>local PHP, NodeJS and mysql client work though.</p>
  
  <p>Any help would be appreciated</p>
