arcgis

Hi, I started using the ArcGIS (preview) visualizations about a week ago and everything was working great until today. Since today however I am getting an Unexpected Error everytime I open PowerBI (even when I just start the program without loading any existing dashboard). The error goes away only if I deactivate the ArcGIS functionality. 

I can't edit or even view the visualizations I did using ArcGIS, It doesn't appear as a graph type in the visualisations panel any more.

I already tried uninstalling and re-installing PowerBI desktop, it didn't solve anything.

Did anybody ever get the same issue?

 

Digging in the error log, here's what I think my be relevant to identify the issue:

 

JS Error Message:
Cannot read property 'iconBase64' of undefined

Error Message:
Une erreur s'est produite lors du rendu du rapport.

Stack Trace:

did anybody else here ever get this issue? Any idea where it might be coming from?

thank you

    Hi All,

     

    A fix has been deployed to address this issue. Could you follow steps below from this thread to see if it works now?:smileyhappy:

     

    1) Close all instances of Power BI Desktop

    2) Open file explorer and navigate to the folder <system drive>:\Users\<user>\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Power BI Desktop\CEF\cache

    • replace <system drive> with your operating system hard disk partition
    • replace <user> with your user profile name, typically the alias you login to Windows with

    3) Delete all contents of this folder

    4) Restart Power BI Desktop

     

    Regards

    Yes, got the same issue after installing the Feb 2017 update. It seems to be working fine in the web service. I opened a ticket with MSFT. Glad I'm not the only one with this issue!

      Cool, is there any way you could update me when you get an update from MSFT please? I've been tring to log a ticket but the form keeps telling me "Error submitting request". This is really frustrating. How do you log a ticket about the support form not working?

        They said it was a known issue, I reinstalled this morning and it's fixed!

  • Hi

     

    I've got the same error, however it doesn't seem to have anything to do with actually installing the February update as it occurs on a machine I have running the January update (which worked fine previously).

     

    I've sent a frown so hopefully one of us will hear something back soon.

    I had exactly the same issue and I did clean the appdata to fix it

    1. Uninstalll Powerbi
    2. goto ../users/<user>/AppData/Local/Microsoft/Power Bi Desktop
    3. backup structure underneath

    3. Delete all files 

    4. Reinstall Power Bi Desktop
