    Hi EricHauenstein,

     

    In my environment, I could upload .pbix file created in December PBI desktop release to Web Portal successfully. 

     

    Please change the browser and try again. Also, please check whetehr you could open these .pbix files (developed in the December PBI Desktop) in PBI desktop (File->Open->select a .pbix file) October release optimised for report server.
