Hello Cesar Ramos,

Hi there! I have just faced the very same issue on MacOS 13.0.1 with Apple M1 Pro chip and MySQLWorkbench v.8.0.30 build 2054668. 

Copying the file as described in the original issue has helped. At least I don't see this error anymore and migration process continues.

It seems the MySQL support's best attempt is to IMHO people and forget about actually fixing the bugs users are reporting. Absolutely you should be ashamed.
