Hi Anonymous,

 

You can try to disconnect the network, after the error message appears, re-connect the network and change the data source.

 

If above still not work, perhaps you can re-create the report file or report this issue to below link:

    I tried disconnecting/connecting the network but that did not help...

     

    Regarding rebuilding the dashboards, unfortunately , this is not an acceptable solution. We already have 25 dashboards designed connected to this data source and rebuilding all these 25 dashboards is definitiely not an option.

     

    I just can't believe this!! There must be a way to change the data source server name/IP???!!

     

    Any ideas??
