Description:
MySQL Workbench has been running fine for 5+ days.  The Administration - Server Status page was currently being displayed with no issues.  Clicking the Refresh button (in the top section where the logo, connection name, host, socket, etc. is displayed) results in a dialog box that states:

Please enter password for the following service:
Service: Mysql@localhost:3306
User: root

After supplying the correct password, the following error is displayed:

Error.  Unhandled exception: not a string

How to repeat:
Click Refresh.  Supply the correct password.  Press Ok.

Suggested fix:
Unknown.  I can supply a screen shot and the wb.log file upon request.

Thank you for the report.
I could not repeat this issue with WB 6.3.4.
Could you please confirm exact WB version on which you experienced this issue?
If you can provide more information, feel free to add it to this bug and change the status back to 'Open'.

Thank you for your interest in MySQL.
