Power BI Report Server September 2022 Issues
Hi Petebro ,
Please can you help? There are some new issues in latest release of PBIRS, especially first three. Is possible check with product team is these issues are identified and if there is any progress or ETA?
1) ODBC connector failing if data source contains text column with text length greater then 512 characters (with Error: ODBC: SUCCESS_WITH_INFO [01004].
2) Custom visuals not working in new reports when saved from Power BI Desktop September 2022
3) Paginated reports subscriptions schedule based on Day (with specified weekdays), Week or Month period, is not able to create or edit.
4) Little performance drop after upgrade to September 2022
5) Some UX issues with data slicer visual.
Hi josef78,
I am pleased to bring good news today. We investigated all of the listed issues, please see details below.
1) ODBC connector failing if data source contains text column with text length greater then 512 characters (with Error: ODBC: SUCCESS_WITH_INFO [01004])
The issue was fixed and the fix will be included in the planned QFE release for PBIRS September. ETA for the release is in December, before Christmas holidays.
Workaround: to refresh data through PBI Desktop for RS (I understand it is not a good workaround for cases when you have many reports, or need to refresh often, but it is the way that can help to refresh)
2) Custom visuals not working in new reports when saved from Power BI Desktop September 2022
This issue was fixed as well and fix is coming in QFE. There is a workaround which you can use until the fix is released:
Add a URL parameter to the URL: ?consumePublicCvsWithoutRps=1, and visuals will start working
for example: http://servername/Reports/powerbi/reportname?consumePublicCvsWithoutRps=1
3) Not able to save paginated reports subscriptions schedule based on weekdays
The issue is fixed and fix is coming in the QFE
Workaround: use shared schedules
4) Little performance drop after upgrade to September 2022
We investigated this complaint and tried to reproduce it, but we didn't observe the performance drop. We'll keep an eye on this one.
5) UX issues with data slicer visual
The issue was identified, and now it's being worked on. Unfortunately, fix for this one will not be included in the coming QFE, but we will aim to fix in for January 2023 release.
Thanks,
Alexandra
Hey Alexandra,
I can see there is a January 2023 version of PBIRS, is this officially out including all the fixes??
Hi mpsrshl and all,
PBIRS Jan 2023 is on the way, should be publicly available today in the Microsoft Download Center.
There will be an announcement here in the community too.
You can check here in the changelog, what is going to be included in the new release: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/power-bi/report-server/changelog
Thanks,
Alexandra
Thanks Alexandra for the quick response!
Ok I look forward to the announcement.
A tone of additions once again we have missed out on :')!
Hi Alexandra,
this is great news.
The date published from PBI Report Server has been refreshed to 12/12/2022, but the version number did not change.
Is the QFE already published?Mark
Hi Mark 😊
Keen eye! No, the QFE is not live yet. The date changed just because the build is staged to be published, but it will take some time for the bits (and displayed version) to be actually updated. 1 to 2 days usually. There will be a community post about the update, also changelog will be updated.
Thank you,
Alexandra
Great news. Thank you so much.
