can't connect visual server - running local host and have installed correct certificates

Hello, 

 

First time posting, please forgive me if I've missed a similar thread elsewhere on the forum. I've installed the pbiviz tools, installed the certificates and am running the localhost before trying to open the dev visual on power bi  (please see attached screen grabs) I've followed all the steps to the letter including uninstalling and reinstalling all tools, certificates, etc. etc. What am I doing wrong?? Has anyone any advice?

 

 

I've removed and reinstalled the certificates from the browser and user, restarted the computer about 5 times now, please if you've any idea what's wrong let me know!

 

thank you,

 

Rose

 

  • Ufff I found the solution, have the same problem as yours tries many different ways install and create certificate. 

     

    One mistake I was doing earlier was not installing my certificate in proper location and the proper location was Trusted Root Certification Authorities. I always did first option.. uuuh

      I've tried that, but when I get to the end, I get an Error.

       

      "The import failed because the store was read-only, the store was full, or the store did not open correctly"

       

      What to do from here?

      Ok, I've uninstalled and reinstalled the certificates several times, I've closed browsers and restarted the computer alot - I was able to get this working on an old windows 7 but not my laptop - windows 10. I've tried to change the port to run the server but still nothing :(

       

      Anyone else any advice other that 'it works for me'?
