gateway
Hey Anonymous
Seems like you are still issue with this, can you tell what you see when you go to app.powerbi.com and click manage gateways, as shown below
Also under your dataset, select your dataset, and check what are the gateway settings?
Hi Anonymous,
Power BI gateway will not require Azure subscription to sign in. In your scenario, please make sure the gateway installed is Power BI gateway. You can refer to this article to install on-premise data gateway or personal gateway: On-premises data gateway.

Thanks, but looks like Guavaq was correct. I was able to login to Azure with my PowerBI login, and installation was successful.
Thank you, GilbertQ! I was able to login and complete the installation.
However, I'm now having trouble publishing from my desktop to PowerBi.
Initially, after selecting Publish > Publish to Power BI, in the Destination selection window, it gave me a choice of "My Workgroup" and the name of a different test group I created. I selected the test group which I created, but that did not seem to work. I got the error message:
Publishing succeeded, but the published report cannot connect to the data source because we were unable to find a gateway. Please install and configure an enterprise gateway.
So I tried again, this type choosing the group "My Workspace". This also did not work. This time, the error message was:
An error occurred while attempting to publish 'filename.pbix': The underlying connection was closed: An unexpected error occurred on a receive.
Let me know if you have any ideas on how to successfully publish the file.
Thanks!

UPDATE: I was able to publish a file which has data from an Excel file imported into it. However, so far no luck doing the same, when I am using a file which is connected to a live SQL Server database.
