Unable to save document (An error occurred...)

Hi All, I am unable to save PBIX files to our Report server. The error is so generic that I can't tell what is going wrong or where to look for clues. It does not matter if we save from Power BI ...

Hi Dedmon,

I was able to get it working a few minutes ago by adding a loopback line to the hosts file on the server (at the suggestion of the MS support engineer). I am not entirely sure why this fixed it because I have not met with our network team to debreif yet but I am now able to save the reports again. I will update again if i get any more relavent info as to why this solved the issue.

The line added to the hosts file:
127.0.0.1 reports.mydomain.com

Cheers,
Jesse
