Validate that the machine where your personal gateway is running on has all required packages installed.

In my local machine, I am using Python 3.8.2 while in the VM where Personal Gateway is present has python 3.8.0. also other python packages (numpy, pandas, cx-oracle & matplotlib) are slightly different versions in both the m/c

Does the all versions (python & packages) need to be same?

How to ensure Personal Gateway is picking the right versions intalled?, is there any config ? 

Also I have disabled Custom data connector in Personal gateway, do we need to enable that when we are using Python as data source.

      Currently installing compatible package versions in gateway environment. Will let you know if that resolved the issue.
