Hi dears!
I'm trying of import a big csv file with  millions of rows to a table using MysqlWorbench 8.0.29 and I'm getting this error

Check the log for more detail.

I have converted my csv file to utf-8 codification and the problem remains, I don't know what to do, I need urgently fix this problem because I want to fill my database with data from csv files.

What should I do?

PD: My database is in utf8_general_ci 
Should I mod the my.ini file of MySQL? what should I added here?.

thanks in advance.

How to repeat:
The bug happens when I go to my databases and I select one and then right click and I select 'Table Data Import Wizard' then I just choice my csv file, next and the bug appears. Here's a video about my problem

Hello freddy,

Thank you for the bug report.
I tried to reproduce your issue on windows 10 with MySQL Workbench 8.0.29 and imported csv utf8 file without any issues.
Could you please provide a sample csv file which is causing this issue?

Regards,
Ashwini Patil

Maybe the problem happens because the file is 4.5 GB
