Semantic Model refresh fails due to COM error: Parquet, cannot find data type handler to create mode

Hello,

 

I get the following error on refresh which has stopped my model refreshing

COM error: Parquet, cannot find data type handler to create model schema for [n: stats_parsed, t: <not set>, ct: <not set>, rt: OPTIONAL, c: 0]. Table:

The underlying data is refreshing okay but for some reason the models created off of the lakehouse have began failing - These have been working for well over a month with no issue

When i try to create a model or take tables out and put them back in i get an error also see below:

 

COM error: Parquet, cannot find data type handler to create model schema for [n: stats_parsed, t: <not set>, ct: <not set>, rt: OPTIONAL, c: 0]

How do i resolve as I cannot rebuild the model each time this happens as this is running a live customer report

This issue has been resolved internally aside from msft support - renaming the tables in the orginal model triggered a refresh to the endpoint which meant it worked again

Has this issue been resolved? I am currently experiencing the same error for two of my tables when trying to create a semantic model. Are there steps I can follow to fix this?

Unfortunately, this is still not working - I have a ticket raised and has been escalated to the PG team but for now the refresh or adding any tables into a semantic model remains broken

Hi @scrubyl 

 

Could I ask why you dont use the SQL endpoint for the Delta Tables in your Lakehouse?
