Common errors

Error: Cannot reach the Gateway

Cause: The on-premises data gateway can't connect to the cloud.

Mitigation: Make sure your gateway is running on the on-premises computer where you installed the gateway and has internet connectivity. Avoid installing the gateway on a computer that might be turned off or go to sleep. You can also try restarting the on-premises data gateway service (PBIEgwService).

Error: The provider being used is deprecated: 'System.Data.OracleClient requires Oracle client software version 8.1.7 or greater.' To install the official provider, see https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/p/?LinkID=272376.

Cause: The Oracle client SDK isn't installed on the computer where the on-premises data gateway is running.

Resolution: Download and install the Oracle client SDK on the same computer as the on-premises data gateway.

Error: Table '[Tablename]' does not define any key columns

Cause: The table doesn't have a primary key.

Resolution: The Oracle Database connector requires that you use a table with a primary key column.
