Power BI report server configuration issue
Trying to configure report server to use database engine form sql server 2017 express and eval . Throws the following error "The Database engine instance you selected is not valid for this editio...
If your using a Power BI Premium Key to install your report server you can only connect to paid SKUs of SQL Server DB which would be Standard and above; express, developer and eval are not supported.
No, I don't think so. Do you have a virtual machine to test it on a clean enviroment?
So I woul install a developer edition and a report server on this machine without any components from the express edition.
Tried installing in a new desktop , sql developer edition basic install and pbi report server , still getting the same error.
