Power BI Gateway setup with ODBC connectivity throwing error

Hi, 

 

I have successfully setup a PowerBI Gateway VM in onPremise environment and setup System DSN with ODBC connectivity to DB2. I have tested it and it is working fine when I connect PowerBI Desktop on the Gateway Machine and connect to the DB2 Datasource. 

Now when I use the same setting at gateway level I found this error:

 

 

 

 

Any clue!!

  • It would appear that you cannot authenticate against your data source.

    I would double check with the database owner that the user account is still working and active?

      How to debug this issue because I am able to connect to the Db2 by Powerbi Desktop but when I try to connect from PowerBI Gateway it throws the error I pasted.

        Hi there

        Can you confirm from your Power BI Administrator that you can install and configure data sources in the Gateway?
