    Hi,

     

    The error message you have posted seems slightly different to the original thread although root cause may be the same.

     

    The symptom that the original issue was related is:

    • BW 2.0 connector refreshes sucessfully on Desktop
    • Same PBIX BW 2.0 connector fails on Service

    The fix was to update the gateway with June patch (released 29th June - version 14.16.6745.2)

Just wanted to add that If it is just SAP (HANA) tables you are after or sub sets of it based on a SQL filter you may want to try the shareware tool ExtracTable at sourceforge.net instead of developing more complex .Net rfc connectors yourself. Call ExtracTable in commandline mode to make it start automatically. Works here.
