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.
Power BI February 2023 released yesterday has fixed this issue. Hooray!
Where did you find the download? All the links I've used still have the old (Dec) version...
Thanks. I am actually waiting for the updated "on premise data gateway", sorry. That one doesn't appear to be released yet unless burried somewhere as all the general links I've tried still link to the December version...
Ahh, of course. Well, the December version of the gateway was released Jan 17 so you might have to wait a while.

Unfortunately I found that to be true too, the only downloads on the Microsoft website are the new versions.
Fortunately, when I looked in the downloads folder of my computer the version I downloaded in September was still there.
