on premises gateway offline for Users

Hi,

I have an issue since, 2 or 3 days only.
My gateway is configured since several months, and now the users see the gateway in "offline".
The rights are correct, each datasource are setuped correctly, the users see the gateway but in offline mode.
When i try with an account administrator of the gateway, the gateway appear online.
I suspect a powerbi update ;-(
Thanks for your helps
David

  • Hi,

     

    We've exactly the same issue and it's very surprising for users who publishes reports as they believe there's a global shutdown of the datagateway. As a consequence they don't publish saying to themselves it won't work !!

     

    Please help

  • We are facing same issue. Gateway appears online for admin and offline for users

    Any update?

      rubensalvador  Coincedently yes.  I just ended a call with a staff member where we got this issue.  In our case we had 3 SQL databases in the project but only 1 of them existed in the gateway.  Normally Power BI wouldn't allow you to select this gateway unless 100% of the datasources exist in the gateway.  Recent editions allow you to refresh cloud sources through the gateway so its likely possible this new symptom is related to that.

       

      My advice is to open the Project in your Power BI desktop, find the "Edit Queries" button, which has a drop arrow.  Click on the drop arrow and select "Data Source Settings".  Make sure each entry in this list is captured identically in your gateway.  This being that any server/database names are identical.  If they are referenced by IP address or Servername that you use the same method.  If the sources are on a network folder, make sure they are in the format of "//Server/Folder" instead of "C:\Folder\"

        Anonymous, I'm not in your situation of multiple sources and have the issue. Nobody can publish or change a report already published. Any idea of the cause ?
