"File contains corrupted data" when refreshing data set on PBi Service, works fine on desktop

Processing error: File contains corrupted data.
Cluster URI: WABI-US-EAST2-C-PRIMARY-redirect.analysis.windows.net
Activity ID: 80b55d9a-f296-4bec-b70c-22300d2130a2

My report refreshes fine on PBi Desktop, and get published to the service fine. Only when I manually trigger a refresh does it give me the above error.
Is my only resort to just rebuild from scratch and hope I don't replicate whatever is causing the corruption?

    Can you please ensure that you have the latest verison of Power BI Gateway installed and see if that resolves the issue?

    Hi  Anonymous ,

    According to my research, this issue can be caused by multiple reasons, you can have a check: 

     

    Core excel > 30MB 
    Excel has password 
    Permission issue 
    Corrupted model 
    Wrong type, error format, value issue, etc. 

     

    If you still have a problem, you can try these steps to find if they can be useful: 

    1. Please delete your desktop firstly. 

     

    2. Delete the Cache and CEF folders in the paths as below.

     

    C:\Users\username\Microsoft\Power BI Desktop Store App

    C:\Users\username\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Power BI Desktop

     

    3. Reinstall your Power BI desktop and try again.
