Symptom
A DataSphere tenant is set up with replication flows that import tables from S4HANA. Currently, attempts are being made to establish a connection between the DataSphere database and Power BI/Excel via an ODBC connection.
After executing an "ODBC test connection," the following error message appears:
- [SAP AG][LIBODBCHDB SO][HDBODBC] General error;10 authentication failed: Detailed info for this error can be found with correlation ID 'XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX'
"Image/data in this KBA is from SAP internal systems, sample data, or demo systems. Any resemblance to real data is purely coincidental."
Environment
- SAP HANA Cloud
- SAP Datasphere
Cause
Improper IP Allow listing configuration for HANA Incoming Requests
Resolution
First ensure the password does not include the following specific characters: []{}(),;?*=!@.
To resolve the issue, utilize the correct corporate VPN and be sure you have added this system to the IP Allow list rather than a single standalone IP address.
