All Custom Visuals Do Not Render in Browser

smithry3 — Mon, 22 Nov 2021 19:54:43 GMT

Hello, We're having problems with any custom visuals imported from the marketplace. These custom visuals do not render in Chrome, Edge, or even Firefox. There is no error, the visual is just blank. The data appears to be there, because I can click around and see the filter pane change. It looks fine in Power BI Desktop.

I just upgraded from January 2021 release to the September 2021 release to see if it would fix the issue but the custom visuals still do not render in the browser. I feel like it may have something to do with same-site cookies but I'm not sure. Has anyone else encountered this?

Thanks!

Ryan

I also got the same issue...

Weird thing is sometimes (1 out of 30) the custom visuals show.

I have testet with the custom visual 'Infographic Designer' if I make a new report and import this visual the custom visual it doesnt show in PBIRS. But if I use 'Infographic Designer' sample report the custom visual always render in PBIRS.

Hoping for a fix.

Microsoft sucks, thats the truth. I have a critical incident with them and no luck so far, they try to blame your environment or even the custom visual but in my company they are intermitent, some times they load some times not and only happen with customs. After this patch it basically destroyed 5 environment with 16k users.

Update:

This known issue is not about PBIRS. But my PBIRS has no issue. Sorry for any misunderstanding.

For the latest news, please see Tektronics 's reply:

Right now, MS looks like is creating a new patch to address the issue and also have some troubleshootings happening with Google Chrome and EDGE issues related to cookies.

Hi ForcaTaico ,

There is no need to upgrade RS. Please try to restart your server and check if the fix has been deployed.

If the issue is still there please let me know.

Power BI Desktop for RS: Version: 2.97.802.0 64-bit (september 2021) - Not the same as yours!

I have just downloaded a new version from Download Microsoft Power BI Report Server- September 2021 from Official Microsoft Download Center but I still get the 2.97.802.0 version. Where do I get the version you have?

Also my Edge is 95.0.1020.53 but i cannot upgrade it my self. I will talk to IT about getting a newer version.

Hi Icey

I have upgraded my 'Power BI Desktop (for RS)' and Egde to same version as you have. The issue still persist.

I might just wait for january 2022 upgrade and see if I still have the issue at that point.

Thanks for trying to solve my issue though.

Hi ForcaTaico ,

I tested it again these days, but still can't reproduce your issue.

You can wait for the Jan 2022 version as you said. Or, you can open a support ticket as I mentioned above.

It is suggested to create a support ticket to get further help.

You still wrong about it because the link you paste and picture is regarding Power BI Premium and this comment is about Power BI On Premises or Report Server.

Power BI Azure might have no issue since users connect directly to internet but On Premises is a separate history since servers usually are disconnected from Network.

I have worked with Product team of On Premises and we found 18 bugs for the latest September 2021 patch which is horrible, a few people can wait but i cant, my company have 20.000 users of Power BI On Premises and release a patch like that is a disrespect.

Right now, MS looks like is creating a new patch to address the issue and also have some troubleshootings happening with Google Chrome and EDGE issues related to cookies. Pretty sure that JAN 2022 wont fix those issues.

I am still experiencing this issue, though I think we've isolated part of the cause of the issue in our environment. When we go through our reverse proxy appliance, the way all of our web apps do, the custom visual still doesn't appear. If I bypass and go directly against the power bi report server, the custom visuals work as expected. I think it has something to do with the cookie that is being delivered to the browser. It would be nice if the January 2022 release resolves this issue but I'm not hopeful.
