Hello,
I am trying to connect a corporate server's MySQL database with Power BI.
But I got an error stating "MYSQL: Reading from the stream has failed"
Could anyone please help me with this.
Thanks in advance,
Obuli

@AnthonyTilley Yes, I tried with removing ssl certificates from server . but that didn't work.
Also for the second solution, I have alot of reports hence can't put anything that need updaing serval times a month.
Also, I can connect it with localhost database, this issue is with server DB.
I have also encountered this issue and i am not able to resolve. Any help would be appreciated.
