Hello together,
me and my colleague facing on different machines with the newest PBI Desktop version this issue.
Microsoft SQL: A connection was successfully established with the server, but then an error occurred during the login process. ((provider: SSL Provider, error: 0 - Certificate comes from a non-trusted certification organisation)
Background
- PBI Version 2.126.1261.0 64-bit (Februar 2024) --> Not Working
- Excel SQL Query --> Working
- PBI Version February 2023 --> Working
- Encryption off
- Login via Tab Database or Windows login brings the same issue
- Cache deleted
Can anyone help?
