    You need to successfully connect to your data source via ODBC on the gateway VM before you can proceed to create the connection on the gateway. The ODBC system dialog has a "Test" option. You can use that, or install a database client on the gateway VM for the test.

    Hi , Anonymous 


    Do you have resolved it? If yes, you could accept the helpful answer as solution. You also could share your own solution here. For now, there is no content of description in the thread. If you still need help, please share more details to us.

     

    BTW, it seemed that you didn't  sign in your account on your gateway.
