Problem with Service Account permissions
Hi GilbertQ !
Problem was resolved by adding domain\abc account into SeBatchLogonRight group (alogn with SeServiceLogonRight). Only then I was able to restore encryption key. PBI log was saying it was unable to validate integrity of encrypted data so that made me thinking into key restore.
Thanks for your answers and hope my solution will help somebody 😊
Hi GilbertQ !
Yes, we are running PowerBI Server on our premises. By service account I mean this section from screen below, but instead of using built-in account we are going with domain\abc.
Only when we add domain\abc to Administrators in snap-in below, we are able to use service:
If we have domain\abc only in SeServiceLogonRight group we are able to restart service, but web server is showing database connection error.
Hi Anonymous
From my understanding if you want the Service account to have access to the database you would either have to add in the Account "Network Service" or use another Service account which has permissions on the Power BI Report Server and database?
