Error while refreshing the data in Power BI Service. "The specified culture is not supported."

I am getting below error while rereshing the Data source in Power BI Service. It is working fine in Desktop

There are 2 sources connected with this report

  • Snowflake (Cloud)
  • SQL Server (On Prem) - The problem is with SQL Server identified by the table name in the end "Images"
    Error occurs on multiple tables not only with "images"

Moreover, there are other reports connected to same gateway working just fine, in those reports there is only one data source i.e. the SQL and those reports were published 2 or 3 months ago

Hi @Anonymous ,

 

'The specified culture is not supported '  is a common issue.

You need to set the region settings in pbix file under options to the same value as the gateway server or  try to disable time intelligence.

Please refer to these related threads.
