    Remove both gateways and then reinstall the personal gateway.  Python scripts only work with personal gateways.

Hi , 

 

I have the same issue and already have an enterprise gateway install to talk to the server. Could I install an additional personal gateway for python to work ?

would having both cause an issue ? Pleas help

You cannot use an Enterprise Gateway to run Python scripts.  Only works with Personal Gateways.

      What do you mean ?  Do you not see that server from your work PC?

        Well I am trying to publish an app and this requires scheduled refreshes at regular intervals and that is why we have the enterprise gateway installed.

        Sorry I am new and if I am not making sense ... All I care about it that the app should be able to connect to a server extract data and the python code and update the visuals..

        could both of this be done by personal gateway ?
