mysql connection error

I use two datasources

one xls file generated from Exsion, stored locally

one mysql database somewhere online

I have the personal gateway 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.

Follwoing error is received:

Cannot connect to the mashup data source. See error details for more information.Hide details

Underlying error code:-2147467259 Table: DCN Pivot_Status.
