Error Message Trying to Hit iSeries DB2
- 3 years ago
ChuckS After much investigation, I believe there is an issue with the latest version of PBI. I went to the archive Previous monthly updates to Power BI Desktop and the Power BI service - Power BI | Microsoft Learn and pulled the September version https://download.microsoft.com/download/8/8/0/880BCA75-79DD-466A-927D-1ABF1F5454B0/PBIDesktopSetup-2022-09_x64.exe I was able to connect to the DB2 without issue.
Hi , MA_guy_VER
1. You may try to update the power bi desktop to latest version and try it again,

2. Please try starting Power BI as Administrator.
For more information, you can refer to :
Power Query IBM Db2 database connector - Power Query | Microsoft Learn

Run as Administrator worked for me. (Did not work, had to install the Sept 2022 version.)

Running as Admin made no difference in my case. Rolling back to Sept 2022 version was the only thing that got me up and running again.
Even is running as Admin worked, this is not a solution. While I am a domain adminstrator so my loging can do pretty much anything, I have many users that do not so this kind of work around would not help then even if it has worked.
