ODBC: ERROR [08S01]
Hi community.
I am receiving ODBC: ERROR [08S01] in 2 ways:
1- while I am adding a new table in Power Query Editor,
2- or I receive same error code after I add table in power query, then apply steps for the tables in report pages.
Is there a solution for this error? I didnt get used to receive this error before and all my same files were working well even the data soruces and everything were same with now. I checked my table sql queries in Dbeaver and it works well. So the problem seems related about power bi, not about query performance.
I also tried to create tables on online version with same odbc sources and sql queries, but then I received below error this time:
"Evaluation was canceled, message: Evaluation was canceled, message: Evaluation is canceled (Session ID: d4b7ac73-df30-4fd8-9b92-d2c3cf48ccfd, Region: us)"
Do you have any suggestions how I can continue to work on desktop version with big data sources?
Thanks in advance to everyone who reply!

Hi,rajendraongole1 ,thanks for your concern about this issue.
And I would like to share some additional solutions below.
Hi,Baykus .I am glad to help you.Are you using the latest version of Power BI Desktop?
Our team has noticed that there is currently an error when connecting to a data source using ODBC for newer versions of Desktop, and the temporary solution is to download a historical version of Desktop to circumvent this issue.You mentioned that you have not had similar problems with previous versions, and that you have tried several ways to verify this, and that the same problem occurs in all of them. It is possible that there is an unexpected error in Desktop itself.
We are now looking into the issue regarding the error with the ODBC connector and I will update this issue if there is an update.Thank you for your support of Power BI.

Hi Anonymous, Thanks for your suggestion. I will install June 2024 version of Power BI Desktop - 64-bit. I will see if it works.
However, I found a solution by dividing sql query in to 3 query for per email group. So I didnt use union. Then I append 3 table and it worked! It is so wierd to me and didnt understand the reson how applied steps can be working while an sql query is not. The hole query with union was working before but has started to give the error [08S01]. It doesnt make sense to me but it is working now 🙂
