NT SERVICE\PBIEgwService
Ended up do the install on a different server running Windows Server 2012 R2 without issue.
Hi Michael,
Our installations look different but the problem I was having was PBIEgwService did not have the correct privileges to start a service. The next problem was I could not find the user/service PBIEgwService that was created as part of the installation and automatically added as the "logon as account" for the Power BI Gateway – Enterprise Service
The way that I got around this was to allow "NT Service\ALL Services" (of which PBIEgwService is a member) privileges to login as a service.
If you want to do this you need to open Local Security Policy
Double-click Local Policies, and then click User Rights Assignments
In the details pane, double-click Log on as a service
Then you need to add "NT Service\ALL Services"
I hope this helps
NT Service\ALL Services already has Logon locally rights on my Windows 10 laptop. I still have the problem.
p.s. The PowerApps version of the Gateway installed properly on Windows Server 2012 R2 but I need it to run on Windows 10.
