Issue with databrick cluster and Power BI connection using spark cluster

getting this error when connecting Power BI with Azure Databricks through spark build in connector:

Details: "ODBC: ERROR [HY000] [Microsoft][DriverSupport] (1170) Unexpected response received from server. Please ensure the server host and port specified for the connection are correct."

I have seen many posts but they are refering to same content which i have already tried. 

I would like to know if we need simba odbc driver to connect on my desktop or we need to have special settings on databricks cluster.

This is really annoying.

TIA

Rahul

    Hi, Anonymous 

     

    Maybe old credentials are stored in Power BI, which may cause identification issues. You may purge cached data sources.(Power BI: Home >Edit Queries > Data source settings). The issue may be related to your odbc driver, please check and confirm  you installed a correct version. I wonder if you are using Azure spark or on-premise spark datasource. If you mean Azure spark, you may refer to the following link.

    https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/hdinsight/spark/apache-spark-use-bi-tools

      Hello,

       

      Since yesterday, I cannot connect to my spark cluster datasource.

      I erased my authentication settings, generate a new token on databricks and log again to my data source.

       

      I keep getting this error

      ODBC: ERROR [HY000] [Microsoft][Hardy] (100) The host and port specified for the connection do not seem to belong to a Spark server. Please check your configuration.

       

      Do you have any ideaabout it ? My Power BI Desktop has been updated automaticaly to this version Version : 2.78.5740.721 64-bit

        I had same issue, it seems to be enterprise firewalls. I didn't troubleshoot to find it out, rather used an Azure VM to try and it worked fine. So note that I am just making an assumption here.
