Postgres data source error in service

Hello everyone,

 

I am trying to schedule auto refresh in Power BI service through personal gateway and while configuring the postgres database I am getting below error.

 

 

Failed to update data source credentials: PostgreSQL: We were unable to find a database provider with invariant name 'Npgsql'. This error could've been the result of provider-specific client software being required, but missing on this computer. To download client software for this provider, visit the following site and choose the 64-bit (x64) version of, at minimum, 'Npgsql version 2.0.12':

 

I have Setup_Npgsql-2.2.4.3-net45 installed in my machine.
