    Hi - none of the above solutions have worked.

     

    It's worth noting that as of now (10.50am CET) the 10.00 refresh is scheduled as the 'Next Refresh'.

     

    It's almost as if the whole refresh system has crashed.

    Also - I have tried to refresh the report on the Desktop and publish to the server. The manual refresh succeeds, but publishing to the server is not working. Taking forever.

      I am getting the exact same problem - there is no error message at all - you get the pop up "Preparing to Refresh" and then nothing happens, the pop up goes away, and then..... nothing. No error message.

       

      Power BI is starting to lose credibility in my organisation because of this instability. We could live with the occasional failure to refresh, but this is now an ongoing issue, and none of the replies on the forums are really addressing the problem.

        Incidentally - the dataset is showing the Next Scheduled Refresh is 10am today.

        It is currently 11am. It's like the refresh clock stopped.

         

        This is now occuring every couple of days - it's not good enough.
