Problems with PBIRS on-prem January 2025
Opening the Desktop Client by right-clicking and selecting Run as Administrator opens the app, but attempting to open a report from the Report Server gives this error:
Hi MHaggerty_DOL,
Check if all required components are installed on the server Make sure your Report Server machine has the latest .NET Framework 4.8 or above and Visual C++ Redistributables (x64) installed. These are needed for Power BI to work properly. Try repairing or reinstalling Power BI Desktop RS (Jan 2025) Sometimes the internal Mashup engine files get corrupted during install or upgrade. Just uninstall and reinstall the same version again from the official site.If the report was created in an older version open that .pbix file in the Jan 2025 Power BI Desktop RS, refresh the data once, and then use "Save As" don’t overwrite the old file. After that, try uploading it again. Check if any custom connectors or mashup extensions are used If you are using custom data connectors, they might not work properly after the upgrade. You may need to update or recompile them to match the new version.

Harshitha.None of your suggestions worked. I'm trying to figure out how to get Microsoft to actually diagnose this issue. I did a rollback to a previously working version (January 2024). Not good at all!
