Howdy Dan,
Some information on the problem and work around can be found here: https://tableplus.io/blog/2018/07/failed-to-load-caching-sha2-password-authentication-plugin-solved.html
The issue was opened by another person yesterday and this issue was lined to it.

I get the following error message when using the Base Wizard in LO
6.2.0.2 to connect to a MySQL database.
Can't initialize character set unknown (path: compiled_in)
I get as far as clicking the the Test Connection button. When entering
the password and clicking OK, I get this message. I have MySQL 8.0.13
for my back end. I set up to use SHA2 with my password. (This may well
be the where the problems lie.)
