Pass filter in URL (Power BI Report Server) is not working

I have created a report and uploaded it to my Power BI Report Server. I am trying to pass a filter from the query string as described here:

https://ideas.powerbi.com/forums/265200-power-bi-ideas/suggestions/19727650-pass-filter-in-url-powerbi-reportserver

but when I do this, the report does not load and the following errors are logged in the console as shown below:

Errors Logged:

HTTP404: NOT FOUND - The server has not found anything matching the requested URI (Uniform Resource Identifier).
GET - http://localhost:8080/powerbi/libs/scripts/odataExplore.js

 HTTP404: NOT FOUND - The server has not found anything matching the requested URI (Uniform Resource Identifier).
GET - http://localhost:8080/powerbi/libs/scripts/odataFilterParser.js

 Error: Script error for "odataExplore"

   at q.onScriptError (http://localhost:8080/powerbi/libs/scripts/powerbiportal.dependencies.externals.bundle.js:1238:13198)

I have published the report to the Power BI service and the filter is working fine there. But when I pass the same filter to the URL of the report on the report server, then the report is not rendering and errors are logged in the console.

I am using Power BI Report Server of version March 2018 and the Power BI Desktop is also version March 2018.
