Sqldatetime overlfow

[ABloemberg]

Every now and then scheduled report refreshes fail with the following error:

PBRS Refresh Error: SqlDateTime overflow. Must be between 1/1/1753 12:00:00 AM and 12/31/9999 11:59:59 PM.

It looks like the report server cannot find the last processed date (Catalog modifiedDate?) or is returning an invalid datetime.

The report refresh fails within a second, showing the error.

To recover from this error the report needs to be downloaded and uploaded again, without making any modification. After that the refresh is working as expected.

We are running on Power BI Report Server May 2022 on-prem.

What could possibly be the issue / solution ?

I checked one of the reports which only had ExcelSheets as datasources. No SQL date time in there. No errors in the power query.
Below the exception found in the log file on the server. Please advice how to remediate this issue.

System.Data.SqlTypes.SqlTypeException: SqlDateTime overflow. Must be between 1/1/1753 12:00:00 AM and 12/31/9999 11:59:59 PM.

@ABloemberg , do you have any date beyond that range. or is there a format issue ?

Please check at source any date beyond the range. Also open power query and check for error row

It looks like an internal PowerBI server issue. All reloads for a specific report fail until a download/Upload of the pbix is done, without touching the pbix file inbetween.
Also a local refresh works without a problem, so it is not an incorrect date in the dataset
