Known Issues

Before installing or upgrading AtScale, please review this section to be aware of all known issues.

C2024.8.1

For models with more than 1600 attributes, AtScale fails to answer all PostgresSQL metadata queries from BI tools

When connected to BI tools via the PostgresSQL interface, AtScale fails to answer all metadata queries on models that have more than 1600 attributes. This is due to a limitation of the PostgresSQL database used to answer these queries.

ATSCALE-22911

Aggregates removed on redeploy

In the new deploy mechanism, when the AtScale UI compiles SML into a project.xml, it is reinitialized, causing aggregates to be invalidated. This results in individual aggregates being rebuilt after each deployment.

ATSCALE-22187

Tableau: Double dashes in catalog names creates empty .tds files

Double dashes (--) in the unique names of catalogs causes corruption of Tableau .tds file generation. This is because double dashes are reserved in many databases, and signal a comment in SQL. AtScale recommends avoiding this character pattern when creating and deploying catalogs.

ATSCALE-16605, ATSCALE-22167

Perspectives cannot contain multiple objects with the same display names

Perspectives cannot contain references to multiple objects with the same display names/labels, as this results in errors at deploy time.

ATSCALE-22326

Identity admin password cannot be updated

In all containerized releases up to and including C2024.8.0, the password for atscale-kc-admin should not be updated alone. There is a corresponding engine setting that needs to be updated, otherwise it causes authentication errors throughout the admin pages.

ATSCALE-22301

Aggregate stat jobs fail due to default database

When AtScale initiates aggregate stat jobs, it defaults to the aggregate database. This means that AtScale looks for tables in the aggregate database where the base data may or may not exist. If it doesn't exist, the stat queries fail and prevent aggregates from building.

ATSCALE-22424

Cube Overrides Interface unavailable

In installer-based AtScale, you can override engine settings at the data model (cube) level. In containerized AtScale, the ability to set these overrides is currently only available via API. A new mechanism for data model override management will be introduced to containerized AtScale in coming releases.

ATSCALE-17458

Snowflake Key File authentication method unavailable

For Snowflake data warehouse connections, the Key File authentication method is currently unavailable. All other methods are functional. The Key File method will become available in a later release.

ATSCALE-22187

Developer Edition licenses result in Required error

AtScale Developer Edition licenses are being generated with some metadata missing. As a result, some Developer Edition customers receive a red Required error.

ATSCALE-22492

Multiple Databricks SQL endpoints result in error

When defining multiple Databricks SQL endpoints (for different query mappings), the assignment of multiple endpoints results in failed connection pools and forces a recreation of the data warehouse connection.

ATSCALE-22502

Double dashes (--) in the unique names of catalogs causes corruption of Tableau .tds file generation. This is because double dashes are reserved in many databases, and signal a comment in SQL. AtScale recommends avoiding this character pattern when creating and deploying catalogs.
