Hi @Anonymous ,

 

What is the error message? Could you translate it into English? Please add users into Gateway Administrator for a test.

I added the user into Gateway Administrator but I got the same error (bellow).

 

OBS1: Enterprise Gateway and MS Access database file are in same server.

 

OBS2: User has full control permission on file.

OBS3: when the user is administrator on Enterprise Gateway server we don't have this issue.
