Internal error: looking up invalid data on a dense spool.

Does anyone have a clue what this error message relates to? Only seems to appear on the service, not in desktop.

 

Internal error: looking up invalid data on a dense spool.

  • Hi JR19 

    This error shows up only in the Power BI Service when certain measures (like SUMX with CALCULATE) run, even though they work fine in Desktop, I think the fix is to simplify or rebuild the measure, republish the dataset, or try a new workspace and if it still fails, itโ€™s a backend issue.

     

    Did it work? ๐Ÿ‘ A kudos would be appreciated

      Thanks DataVitalizer I rebuilt a couple of the measures being used in the visual and this seems to have fixed the issue. Thanks for your quick response!
