    Hi Anonymous

     

    Thanks for your reply, looks like you have given me MS Corporate Support link. 

    Updated 21/3/17. I'll go ahead and create a ticket with Power BI Support. It looks like it is a bug and comes into play when we are importing data from HTML files. 

     

    Thanks

Hi Anonymous,

You get the above error when refreshing data in Power BI Service, right? If so, do you restart Internet Explorer? If the issue still occurs after you restart IE, turn off any anti-virus software and verify that if there are any policies from your IT department blocking your access to information in data sources or Power BI in IE.

Also I would recommend you use other browsers such as Chrome, Firefox to sign in Power BI Service and check if  you can refresh dataset successfully.


Thanks,
Lydia Zhang

    Hi Anonymous

     

    Thanks for the reply. I am actually using Chrome, and get this error while I try to trigger a manual refresh in Power BI Service from Chrome. I have tried restarting Chrome, as well as my system. I have also tried to delete the dataset and subsequent reports and published the report, but no luck. 

     

    The screenshot of IE site settings, in my original post, was from the box where Enterprise Gateway is installed, and those settings are no different than my computer.

     

    I'm going to check with IT if there are any controls though.

     

    Thanks

      Hi Anonymous

       

      I had IT look at the connectivity between the machines, and there's no problem there. I am lost now

        Hi Anonymous,

        Do you install the latest version of Power BI Gateway from this link: https://powerbi.microsoft.com/en-us/gateway/ ?

        And do you get error when refreshing other datasets? What calculations are contained in this problem dataset?  I would recommend you that delete this problem dataset and re-republish PBIX file to Power BI Service, then check if the issue still occurs.

        Thanks,
