Connectivity issues (PBI > Netezza)
Hi ajohnso2 ,
Since Netezza has now deprecated weaker authentication methods such as MD5 and Crypt. If your connection still uses these methods you can change it to SHA256, here is the documentation I found for you hope it helps!
Updating connections for crypto support - IBM Documentation
The 64-bit Power BI Desktop and Power BI Gateway require the use of 64-bit ODBC drivers. 32-bit drivers are not available in 64-bit environments, which means that you have to make sure that you use 64-bit drivers when configuring your data sources.
Solved: 32 Bit ODBC driver with 64 Bit Power BI - Microsoft Fabric Community
Of course, you can't rule out compatibility issues that occur after updating your Power BI client. If you still can't find a solution after trying the previous two steps, I recommend that you downgrade your version of Power BI Desktop in order to ensure that the program runs properly!
I hope my reply can solve your questions, if you have further questions, you can contact me at any time, I will receive your message the first time to reply to you, look forward to your reply!
Hope it helps!

Thanks,
However, I have rolled back to the September release and the issue goes away. I've read on these forums of other users having issues with connections (albeit to differing databases) on the oct release.
Can you confirm this is not a known bug (that will be addressed) in the Oct release.
Hi ajohnso2 ,
Thank you for your feedback!
I'm glad to hear that you resolved the issue by rolling back to the September version. I'll check further to see if there are any known issues associated with the October release, and if so, we'll make sure to address them in a future update.
If any of the previously provided suggestions are helpful, you may consider marking them as solutions so that other users experiencing a similar situation can find a solution more quickly.
Thank you again for your patience and support!
