Unfortunately as TGillespie has stated, the error is very generic and does not provide any details.  I believe we have open a ticket as well.  We have found a work around (that is not sustainable but works in a pinch).  If you give the user access to the REPORT that is associated with the DATASET, it will give access to both the REPORT and the DATASET.  You can then remove access to the report and the user will retain access to the dataset.  TGillespie Not sure if you want to try that....

 

We have also found that we are unable grant access to user groups as we have in the past.  We are not sure if the issue is related but both issues were first noticed after the recent changes.
