RE: Power BI: Can't access SQL Server data using Power BI Enterprise Gateway

Hi, 

 

- I have installed PowerBI enterprise gateway on an onpremis computer. 

- I have created two data sources in PowerBI whcih point to two different sql server database tables.

- I can access the databases from that computer.

- My users have adequet permisions.

- PowerBI says they are Online and good to go.

- I can't see the data in Power BI.

 

What do I do now? Is this a bug? This is really frustrating.

 

After I did a bit of investigation I am getting the following messages in the log:

 

Failed to execute the command ' -SetupGatewayForAppMode b9eed145-063c-4663-abe1-e876a82f2095@c90fbba4-a23b-43fe-ab72-b13e490e48d9@202a1df9-0664-485f-8e29-ee8e334212da@sea#/LvGiH6S89xXFMFdz95SzYsToG7ovAjn2BiGddUiPQk='. Error message: An error occurred while sending the request.

This would indicate there is a firewall problem but what  address is it trying to access. If it is a connection problem why is PowerBI Enterprise gateway saying everything is ok.
