The following connections failed to refresh: ThisWorkbookDataModel.

Question

"The following connections failed to refresh: ThisWorkbookDataModel."

I get this error when attempting to refresh an embedded Excel 2013 worksheet in a sharepoint 2013 farm. From reading about the error, I get the impression that this should work in a fully 2013 environment? E.g. see http://blogs.msdn.com/b/pfebi/archive/2013/09/14/excel-2013-powerpivot-workbook-with-powerpivot-for-sharepoint-2010.aspx

I have installed PowerPivot on the same server that is hosting the Sharepoint 2013 farm. Are there different installation modes for PP for 2010 and PP for 2013 even on a 2013 server, with SQL server 2012 media?

Thanks for your help!
