Couldn't connect to analysis service After Report Server version update

Hi we updated the Report server to the May2024 version, and our reports that uses direct query are failing to open with the following message 

JaftaT_0-1718959891796.png

The report run successfully on desktop, but fails on report server.  The report is not connecting to Analysis service server, it is connecting to a database server. I checked the forum and found the following discussion. It was a bug with May2019 version, could this be a bug again or is there a workaround it?

to add more servers it should be enough to separate them with semicolons (;)

I've just tested that to add more servers/instances you need to separate them with commas (,)

Thanks for pointing this piece out!
Note: Looks like PBIRS needs to be restarted after adding the environment variable (at least it wasn't working for me until after I restarted).
