Power BI ODBC to Firebird Error

 

Hello

,I have trouble to connect my Power BI desktop to ODBC DSN to Firebird database. My System DSN with Firebird driver is connected successfully from ODBC settings. When I select my DSN (correct DSN is selected) in Power BI Desktop an error occurs:


Unexpected error: Attempted to read or write protected memory. This is often an indication that other memory is corrupt.


I tested several ways how to fix it (check 64/32bit, versions of driver, Admin permissions) nothing works. Please could anybody help me?
Thanks a lot for any recommendation.

 

regards,

Ok, the PBI Desktop is working fine...

 

But the data gateway error persists. Something like protected memory error in writing or reading.

 

Please, this is urgent... 20 days without update...

 

 

GatewayPipelineErrorCode=DM_GWPipeline_UnknownError
InnerType=ErrorException
InnerMessage=<pi>Tentativa de leitura ou gravação em memória protegida. Normalmente, isso é uma indicação de que outra memória está danificada.</pi>
InnerToString=<pi>System.AccessViolationException: Tentativa de leitura ou gravação em memória protegida. Normalmente, isso é uma indicação de que outra memória está danificada.

Hi There, is there any progress with this error since these posts from December?

I did the downgrade to the previous version before the last and works. Fortunately I have the installer on my disk.
