Description:
On changing the timestamps in the error log from the default UTC to local SYSTEM, the format of the events shown in the Error Log File in Server Logs in the Administration tab changes such that all fields are now shown in the field Details instead of Timestamp Thread Type Details. In other words, 4 fields are now shown in one field and thus are harder to read and parse.

How to repeat:
Change log_timestamp in my.cnf from the default (or non-set) to SYSTEM.

This issue applies to the legacy MySQL Workbench 8.x implementation that is no longer supported or maintained.
MySQL Workbench 26.7 is a complete rewrite using a new technology stack and does not use the affected legacy implementation.
Therefore, this issue is not applicable to the current MySQL Workbench product and as such is closed.
