Jan. 2022 Report Server new refresh failure behavior

Since we upgraded to the Jan. 2022 version of the report server, I've noticed higher than usual number of data refresh errors. It's a new pattern--the error message is simply "Started Data Refresh" but it never gets any farther. When I go in and force the refresh it works fine. Has anyone else seen this?

    Hi motoray ,

     

    During the investigation we found that after a previous version update, users had the same experience as you.

    His solution was to check and clean up the Reportserver database event table.

     

    For more you can refer to:New scheduled refresh stuck at refreshing

      Thanks for that suggestion. I'm having our DBA take a look at the event table on the report server.

        Didn't fix it. In fact there was nothing in the events table.

    Hi motoray ,

     

    Please try connect to your server via SSMS - Server Type: Reporting Services, Server Name: http://YourReportServer/ReportServer > find  "ModelExpirationMinutes"settings in Server Properties, Advanced page.>set the ModelExpirationMinutes sufficiently long ( For example, 60 minutes, 360 minutes, etc.) 

     


    Hope it helps,

      I've changed it from the default of 15 to 60 minutes and will monitor. Thanks for the tip.
