Hi @desalasalign, 

Were you able to open the pbix file before updating the Power BI desktop to June version? You can get Power BI desktop May version here to see if the same issue occurs. 

Were you getting data in Import mode? If it is, is it possible for you to share the pbix file with us?

Hi,

I have the same issue with the June update with some reports. The reports worked without any problems with the May version.

Hi @ v-qiuyu-msft and @chris_e 

Thanks for you response,

Yes my team tested these pbix files using the PB Desktop May 2019 and theses files work perfectly,

A possible workaround that works for us is reset the pallets colors on the tab Themes using the default theme

In the version of May 2019 we used a .Json file with the standard colors of the company, for some reason that we unknown, this. Json not works with the new version June 2019. We redesign the .Json file and then the all files worked without any rendering error.

@chris_e  Try reset the default theme colors if this work for you

Hi @desalasalign ,

Thank you for your feedback. I confirm that the error does not occur anymore when I switch to the default theme.

I also have this issue, every report shows this error since the June update. When I remove the 'page' settings in the JSON file (background and outspace), the theme works fine.

Is there another workaround, to fix this issue without updating every report in the company, and keeping the background settings ?

Or is it possible to put a fix in the next update which prevents this error ?

Hi All,

We encountered the same issue and it does seem to be around custom json themes. Switching back to default theme gets rid of the error, but that obviously is not something we can afford, as we would need to recolor a lot of stuff one-by-one. Would be good to have a quick fix to resolve this.

Hi all, 

Please share a sample pbix file and json file with us. You can upload them to your OneDrive and paste the share link here. 

I will test it on my side and report it internally once I reproduce it.

Hi @v-qiuyu-msft ,

Here is the json that we are using. You don't need a sample pbix for that as it will drop the error even if you import it to a blank file. Thanks in advance for looking into it!

	"name": "myTheme",
	"dataColors": ["#003865", "#0093B2", "#B5BD00", "#9BD3DD", "#686B6B", "#A7A8AA", "#A6192E", "#FF671F", "#FFAFBE", "#DADE7F"],
	"foreground": "#333333",
	"tableAccent": "#003865",
	"visualStyles": {

						}
					}
				]
			}

Hi @v-qiuyu-msft 

Thanks for picking up this issue.

For me goes the same, the error will occurr in any pbix file.

Please find below the code for my json theme file.

When I remove the orange lines, the file could be imported again without errors.

Looking forward to your results !
