Hi All,
I'm a newbie to Power BI (Desktop) and first time trying to connect to an SQLite database.
I set up the connection to the database by following steps provided here:
https://www.biinsight.com/visualise-sqlite-data-in-power-bi/
The database did not require sign in.
However, when I tried to connect, I got the following message:
Details: "ODBC: ERROR [HY000] out of memory ERROR [IM006] [Microsoft][ODBC Driver Manager] Driver's SQLSetConnectAttr failed"
Can anyone assist me?
Thanks
Solved! Go to Solution.
Thanks very much for your reply and assistance.
I'm still trying to sort it out but I'm sure it just what you suggested.

@Anonymous , Based on SQL lite version check the Driver version. Typically "out of memory" ERROR should come when a query runs. It is coming at a time connection so seems like a correct driver issue.
Thanks very much for your help!
I'll investigate your suggestion
Thanks
Hi, @Anonymous
I'm sorry. I can't reproduce your issue.I check all steps in the document your mentioned ,everything works well in my current environment.
As mentioned by @amitchandak ,please check the version of your powerbi desktop and Sqlite ODBC driver.Make sure you install the right versions of the driver ( x32 bit or x64).
You aslo can raise it to the support team for better advice.
Best Regards,
