    Hi,

    After installing on several devices and noticing that some returned errors while others didn’t, I compared the system information of each one and found that the issue, in this case, is related to AVX CPU extension support. One of the VMs didn’t inherit this extension from the host, and once it was enabled, the error disappeared.

    We can conclude that the error is related to CPUs lacking the AVX extension.
    Best Regards.

    Hi, still working on it.

     

    I have run some tests and minimized the data to reproduce the error with a CSV file, created in a plain text file.
     
    The text file contains only these lines:
    A,B
    1845,330679
    1845,330679
    1845,330679
    1845,330679
    1845,330679
    1845,330679
    1845,330679
    1845,330679
     
    the 3 steps applied to file load:
    = Csv.Document(File.Contents("D:\work\TestFile.csv"),[Delimiter=",", Columns=2, Encoding=65001, QuoteStyle=QuoteStyle.None])
    = Table.PromoteHeaders(Source, [PromoteAllScalars=true])
    = Table.TransformColumnTypes(#"Promoted Headers",{{"A", type number}, {"B", Int64.Type}})
     
    column A was set as a decimal and column B as a whole number.
     
    I created the measure:
    measure= CALCULATE(COUNT(TestFile[B]),TestFile[A]>0)
     
    and a visual list with only one column containing the created measure and the error occurs.
     
    the error disappears if I do one of the following:
    • remove at least one line of the file (all lines are equal)
    • change column A type from decimal to whole number
    • change measure removing TestFile[A]>0, or changing to TestFile[A]=0 or TestFile[A]<0, but TestFile[A]>=0 the error remains (the '>'  operator is causing the error)

    Thanks.
