Relationships between tables and PowerBI crash SQLDUMPER.exe

Hello everyone, 

 

Since the new December version has been released, I keep having crashes of Power BI over and over trying to link two tables... 

 

As soon as I want to create the link (drag and dropping a dimiension to a table to another table) the windows terminal opens with SQLDUMPER.exe and close/crash Power BI.

 

I have never experienced this before the last release.

 

Thank you for your help

Seems to be fixed in Jan 18 release. Have not experienced any sqldumper crashes when managing relationships between tables after the update

Hi Power BI team,

 

This does not seem to be an issue for relationships between DB tables but every time when I try to create a relationship between a view and a table, the terminal runs SQLDUMPER.exe and crashes the Power BI application. Same goes to relationships created between tables from linked server. (DirectQuery method)

 

Please advise.

Thanks.

 

Regards,

Jo

Experiencing the same problem.  Have not upgraded to January release because it would not allow me to publish from desktop.

Installed Feb 2018 Update the same Problem - in import mode its work.

DirectQuery crashes with the SQL Dumper black window. 

 

Please fix it 😞

I am also having the same issue after rolling up to Februrary 2018 update.  I have just rolled back to the last November 2017 update that was published which allows me to create the relationships without the SQL dumping.

I have just installed the Feb 2018 release of Power BI desktop and I have the same issue. I am trying to create a 1:M relationship between two tables (not views) and I get the SQLDUMPER.exe comand line window before Power BI desktop crashes.
