The Web.Page function requires Active Scripting to be enabled in Internet Explorer

I have a webquery and Analysis services which I am using to bring in the data. The refresh is working fine when configured using my personal gateway, but when I try to refresh it using the enterprise gateway, I get the below error:

 

 

Underlying error message: The Web.Page function requires Active Scripting to be enabled in Internet Explorer options. See https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=506565 for details on how to enable Active Scripting.

DM_ErrorDetailNameCode_UnderlyingHResult: -2147467259
Microsoft.Data.Mashup.ValueError.Reason: DataSource.Error

 


I have checked and Active Scripting is enabled on the machine where enterprise gateway is hosted. Can you please help me sort this out.

  • Thanks, It worked for us as well, though we used a different approach. The issues was Local Group Policy was blocking the service user(pbiegwservice) to use Active Scripting.

    * From the Windows Server Start menu, open the Local Group Policy Editor (gpedit.msc).
    * Under Local Computer Policy, expand Computer Configuration > Administrative Templates > Windows Components > Internet Explorer > Internet Control Panel > Security Page > Internet Zone.
    * Right-click Allow active scripting and click Edit.
    * In the Allow active scripting dialog, click Enabled.
    * In the Options area, select Enable from the list.

    We added the url and enabled Active Scripting on the server running Enterprise Gateway.

    Also upgraded Enterprise Gateway to the latest version.

        I will give an update if I have any news, could it be related to the fact that setting Active Scripting in internet explorer is related to the user profile? So you should activate it for the account the enterprise gateway uses to run?
