Impactful IndividualSomething went wrong - recurring error updating dataset.
Microsoft EmployeeHi mmace1,
Do you mean you can't refresh your dataset?
1. Did you install the proper Data Gateway?
2. What's the data source?
3. Is this the error when you refresh your dataset?
Best Regards,

Impactful IndividualHi,
I don't use a data gateway. I manually push out an update.
There are many data sources this file draws from: SQL Server, the local file system, Salesforce, & Sharepoint. Possibly others, if there are old disused queries in there I haven't removed.
So, this is a local Power BI file that I refresh on my local computer, then click Publish to push out to the service.
It refreshes fine locally, and when I click 'Publish', everything appears to go fine after it asks me if I want to replace the existing dataset, eventually saying 'success'.
But then checking the dashboard/report online, I see things hadn't actually updated. So then checking the dataset online, I see that it has an error.
And agian if I publish the same file under a different name - it goes through fine as a new dataset. It's just having trouble replacing the dataset.
Do I make sense?

Hi,
The quote up in my initial post has the error message in it.
Thanks, unfortuntely I'm not actually a pro user (still on a trial), so I can't submit a support ticket without setting up payment (which would be even more of a hassle then getting myself on a proper license...and that's a hassle I'm not going to do at work until it's absolutely necessary).
Obviously rebuilding my dash is a hassle too - but *most* days I can refresh the dataset fine. e.g., since this began, I'm currently on the 3rd copy of my datasets (two of them do this now...).

Hi mmace1,
I found a similar case in the internal system. Please @me when you want some updates. Did you try uploading the file from the Service? There is also a Replace prompt.
