Jasel,

 

Thank you for your response, I had already done that which at this point makes no sense why it wouldn't work.

Hi Jasel,

 

Just wondering...

 

What error message do you get in PBI Desktop?

 

Did publishing from the PBI Desktop installation on the server work?

 

Is the PBI Report Server portal running and accessible from a web browser?

 

Have you configured permissions within the PBI Report Server portal allowing people to publish reports?

    Hi Jasel,

     

     

    I changed the credentials to my elevated for our environment just to see if we could get past the errors.  The PowerBI Report Server is set up and using my elevated credentials right now.  I'm an administrator on the server and within SQL Server.  The report I'm trying to publish has multiple tabs using spreadsheets.  When I began having issues, I moved everything onto the server just to remove having to go through the environment to publish.  I made sure to change the path to the drive the spreadsheets now reside on.  

     

    save as to the report server:  An error occurred while attempting to save the rport to Power BI report server

    upload from the web page:  There was an error uploading your .pbix file.  Verify that the file has not be corrupted and that the file extension matches the format of the file.
