How to repeat:
I first used the upgrade procedure of an existing Mysql ODBC Connector 5.5. It failed. Then I de installed the existing connector, deleted all connections and tried to install the current version again. It also failed.

I assume, a file is missing in the installation list.

Please try version 8.0.21. Thanks.
