Unable to see EC2 hosted MongoDB database in ODBC using “Connector for BI” on Windows 10

I have a mongodb database on AWS EC2 and I want to connect Power BI to it via ODBC. I installed "Connector for BI" on my local windows PC and provided it DRDL file but I can't see my database in the database drop-down in ODBC while creating DSN. Followed these steps, please help. Thanks a lot.



Step1: 



mongodrdl --host xx.xx.xx.xx:27017 --username xxx --password xxx --db dbname --collection collname --out xxx.drdl


Step2: 



mongosqld --schema xxx.drdl


Step3:



Create DSN and connect to 127.0.0.1 on port 3307



Problem: Unable to see my database hosted on EC2.



I suspect I am not using Mongosqld with the right parameters - maybe the database access credentials are missing but when I use the --mongo-uri with the URI, I get a message "--mongo-uri may not contain any authentication information".

          Run scheduled task as local user group (not BUILTIN)

          Image
          0 I am trying to run a scheduled task with User Group (not a single user). This is working fine when I in the field "when running a task, use the following user account:" insert BUILTIN User Group (for example: Administrators or Users). But when I try it with the created Local User Group (example: TestGroup) it is not working. The Users in the TestGroup are the same as in the Administrators group. What could be the problem? Are there some restrictions to the Created User Group compared to BUILTINUsers? scheduled-tasks taskscheduler windowstaskschedule share | improve this question asked Nov 15 '18 at 15:36 Far...
