    I finally unistalled everything (even dropping the reportserver and tempreportesrver databases), and re-installed fresh.  This seemed to resolve the issue as I am now able to publish Power BI reports either via the "Save as" option or uploading from the Power BI portal.

     

    To uninstall simply run the setup and choose the ininstall option.  Finish up by using SSMS to drop the associated databases.

     

    I'm assuming this happened after updating Power BI from one version to another.

manceelee:

1. can you try to detele a existing file - On the server and web portal: Yes, I can delete files on the server and anything currently on the web portal.

2. are you able to upload that pxib directly from report portal - no, this also results in an even more generic error.

3. i think it's about infrastructure issue. - Probably

I ran the command and the "Reserved URL: http://+:80/powerbi/" line does exist.  As far as the user account it is just the default PowerBI NT Service account being used.  This is the same for the other environement.  The SQL connection uses a AD service account we created.

We are facing the same problem, however, our enviroment is setup in one server only. 
Same error message, same log information.

        Hey Anonymous -

        I was kind of lucky and didn't have too many reports to re-publish, about 15 or so.  We keep the pbix files on a secure network share, but plan on implementing some kind of TFS solution soon.

         

        I needed everything up and running ASAP so I just wiped everything out and re-published.  You can try just uninstalling Power BI, and keeping the the databases, just reconnect to an already existing database when going through configuration manager.

         

        Alternatively the back up / restore process is pretty much identical to SSRS if you've worked with that in the past.  If not, here you go:

        Good luck!
