Hi all
The following error occurred when I connect Azure Databricks with the new Azure Databricks connector in Power BI desktop.
"ODBC: ERROR [HY000] [Microsoft][ThriftExtension] (14) Unexpected response from server during a HTTP connection: connect() failed: errno = 10060."
I found a solution in from the Tableau web site,
-------------
Use the ODBC driver configuration options and the Other Databases (ODBC) connector.
e.g. Simba Spark ODBC driver
-------------
Do I need install this one?
Thanks&Regards,
Qubo

Hi Liang
I found this error only occurred when I connect databricks from Power BI desktop with Office LAN. I can successfully to connect in a public internet environment without ODBC driver.
Do you have any advices?
Thanks&Regards,

Hi Liang
I confirmed my Power BI desktop version (2.86.902.0 32-bit (2020/10)) that is higher than 2.85.681.0.

Do you think I need to install ODBC driver?
The issue of my original question occurs when I follow the steps in the following URL.

Unfortunately, I changed the URL to the following format, the error is the same.
https://<server-host-name>:<port>/<http-path>
"ODBC: ERROR [HY000] [Microsoft][ThriftExtension] (14) Unexpected response from server during a HTTP connection: connect() failed: errno = 10060."
I found "Step 1: Download and install a JDBC or ODBC driver" in your link, should I install the JDBC/ODBC dirver when I use Power BI?
Because I cannot find the required step (install ODBC driver) in the following URL.

Hi @Anonymous ,
Does the URL you enter include the port number when using the connector?
Connecting with a server url composed like this may works:
https://<server-host-name>:<port>/<http-path>
