  • If both the user credentials are different then refresh would fail with the above error.
  • Now, to resolve this provide the read/write access to the user which is used while adding the gateway to the path C:\Users\PBIEgwService\AppData\Local\Temp should solve the problem.
  • Alternatively you can make the user (if the user is different while adding the datasource under the gateway)as an admin of the machine where gateway is running, whichever is convenient for you.
