Error Message Trying to Hit iSeries DB2
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 i updated PBI desktop to october version and now i haveing the same issue "HISMPCB0002 In BasePrimitiveConverter the SetCodePage method has been called with a invalid codepage: 937" with my reports based in the server of JDedwards (DB2).. i can't use Administrator due my laptop is controlled by my company.. I am going to enter a ticket to uninstall the version of Oct. 2022 and install the version of september 2022.. i am not sure how Microsoft release a new version without it...
You would think with the number of financial institution and insurance companies that are DB2 based there would be more consideration and testing when it comes to this database platform.
For now we can only hope the issue is resolved on the Nov 2022 release.
