Gateway failing with mysql data sources

Hey team,

 

Lately I have been getting errors on the gateway on data sources that query from two different mysql databases. On Power BI Desktop, everything gets manually refreshed, but on the gateway, I have been getting credential errors, although everything is properly setup.

 

In order to test it, I ran the following test:

Published two different datasets (each querying from individual databases), and the refresh worked properly.

Whenever I tryied adding two databases into the same dataset, the refresh failed through the gateway.

 

Did anyone face this issue? I have been trying to find a solution for this error for weeks, and unfortunately, got no success.

@Anonymous,

Could you please post the full error message? Do you use same account and credential to connect to the two MySQL databases?

Regards,
Lydia

Hello @v-yuezhe-msft,

 

For the different connections I have the same username and different passwords. The configuration of each connection on the gateway follows accordingly.

 

Here is the error message I face for this issue:

 

Last refresh failed: Wed Jan 17 2018 10:21:07 GMT+0100 (W. Europe Standard Time)
We reached the data gateway, but the gateway can't access the on-premises data source.

Cluster URI: WABI-EUROPE-NORTH-B-redirect.analysis.windows.net

@Anonymous,

In a single PBIX file, how do you connect to different databases using same username with different passwords?

Hey @v-yuezhe-msft

 

Here's a screenshot of my DBs:

They are hosted on two different IPs, with two different credentials. The same username for both connections is just a coincidence, let's say.

@Anonymous,

Could you please also post screenshot about the MySQL data sources you added within gateway?

Lydia

Hey @v-yuezhe-msft,

 

Here's a screenshot of both databases on the gateway. For safety reasons, I deleted the IP and real DB name.

Hey @v-yuezhe-msft,

 

I am still facing those issues. Did you have time to take a look into a possible solution?

 

Thanks
