I use two datasources
one xls file generated from Exsion, stored locally
one mysql database somewhere online
I have the personal connector installed my desktop and the desktop is 24/7 on
Everything works in the Powerbi Desktop setup
after publishing, in app.powerbi.com the link to the xls file, using the personal connector works flawless
the data from the MYSQL database online cant be refreshed.

Hi @patfee,
According to the error message, you need to install the Mysql connector on the computer which runs the personal gateway. I guess you didn't use that computer to create reports. So you didn't install the connector on that computer.
