Hi samngai,

 

I tested with Power BI desktop August Update version, but didn’t encounter the 500 error when publishing old PBIX file to Power BI service.

A republish would remind me if I would like to replace the dataset.

To investigate further, please follow the steps below:

  1. Check the temp folder, C:\Users\User name\AppData\Local\Power BI, find the latest file after reproduce the issue and open it with notepad;
  2. Enable Tracing under Power BI Desktop File->Options and settings->Options->GLOBAL->Diagnostics, select Enable Tracing;
  3. Generate a Fiddler trace. (Fiddler Web Debugger Tool)

If available, upload them into OneDrive and post the shared link here. We will help to take a look.

In addition, try to take a reinstall or a repair of the Power BI desktop, see if this would make any difference.

Regards
