Unexpected error encontered when save report to Report Server

My Report server installed on 10.88.0.39, version is 2017.10

I can save report on the server computer,use Power BI Desktop RS.

 

But I cannot save report to server on another PC, IP is 10.88.0.10.

I got an error: Unexpected error encontered

 

And there is no error message in report server logs.

The server fire wall is shutdown. 

Who knows how can I solve this problem? Thanks

    This seems like PBI desktop doesn't support NTLM in the Save As function in your scenario. I cannot find documentation about this readily. What if you use "Upload" from the portal, view the report and choose edit in PBI Desktop, does it behave the same?

  • Hi

    Add your powerbi credential in credential manager under windows credential with power BI server URL.

    I think this resolve your problem.

    I have resolved this issue with this way.

    Thanks

      Your solution works!!

      I find it's a common issue when your PBI Desktop client PC is out of the server's AD domain.

      And I think it is a product bug, since when you use Mobile Report Publisher or Report Builder, you will have a crendential popup window, however, PBI Desktop missed this feature.

  • Maybe this other PC is blocking port 9999 outbound?

        Are you using the same user when tried from the server and the PC?
