RS data source Lifecycle Query engine can not be refreshed
Sometimes you may not be able to refresh a data model for a data source.
This is totally normal for a "Lifecycle Query engine scoped by a configuration" - however you should normally be able to refresh the standard "Lifecycle Query Engine" data source. But you could end in a situation where the button is grayed out and you find something like:
No corresponding non-config data source. Ignoring data source:
in the rs.log
Accepted answer
This can be caused by the field
require a configuration to run a report - accidentally being set on the Lifecycle Query Engine data source.
This flag should only be set for the "Lifecycle Query Engine Scoped By a Configuration" data source.
Uncheck the field and save the datasource.
One other answer
Just to expand on Kim's advice.
Normally, when you setup Report Builder and there are one or more project areas that have opted in for configuration management, three data sources are created by the setup wizard:
- Data warehouse
- Lifecycle Query Engine
- Lifecycle Query Engine scoped by a configuration
As Kim stated, if you have a configuration enabled data source, this should always be one of a pair of data sources for the same LQE instance. If someone has accidentally modified the Lifecycle Query Engine data source to be configuration scoped you should fix that user error by unchecking that option.
