Hi Everyone, I need help connecting a MongoDB.
For this I first tried to create an ODBC connection via an admin account. In ODBC via System-DSN (when creating the connection) first the page freezes and when closing it I get the error: "[MongoDB][ODBC 1.4(a) Driver] Lost connection to MySQL server at reading initial communication packet, system error 0".
When I try to create a connection via User-DSN and then connect in PowerBI I get the following error: "Lost connection to MySQL server at waiting for initial communication packet, system error 10060".
Can somebody help solving these connection issue or has similiar problems?
I followed the steps on those pages:
MongoDB BI Connector ODBC Driver — MongoDB Connector for BI
Create a System DSN — MongoDB Connector for BI
Solved! Go to Solution.
The issue was a lack of mongosqld or PowerBI Connector.
Can you please navigate how get this page?
