Can anyone please help me to resolve this issue. Also i have changed my max_use
You installed MySQL server on the same PC you are running Power BI on. That MySQL server is configured to allow 5 connections. They are all consumed.
Recommendation is to install MySQL on a dedicated server and increase the connection pool substantially.
