November(2017) update cannot connect to data model

‎11-09-2017 01:56 AM

Hi,

 

Since updating desktop to the latest version as of 11/9/2017 I tried to switch data source of one my reports to a test version of the same model. This process has worked well before. However this time, upon switching the live connection to the test model, no data came through and all of my visuals broke.

 

I have tested on colleagues computers who have not updated and they have confirmed that the test model and report work perfectly.

 

I have also rolled back to the October update of Power BI and again, everything works perfectly. So we seem to have isolated the problem as being something (at least) to do with the November 2017 update.

 

Has anyone else experienced this issue? How do I escalate this properly?

 

Thanks,

 

Will

Hello,

 

I have also experienced this issue when changing data connections after installing the November update. I copied the error and it is very ambiguous

 

Error Details:
An exception of type System.InvalidOperationException occured.

 

It broke every visual in the desktop file. Interestingly enough, when I published the file with the broken visuals to the service it worked perfectly in the service. I then saved the broken file and reopened it and my visuals started working again.

 

Hopefully the above is helpful in troubleshooting your issue.

 

Thanks,

James
