I was able to import one of the files directly to the server from the web UI. On there I was able to get it connected. I don't know yet, if I will be able to download it now, and connect via my desktop software. I will try when I get a chance.
It still doesn't work. I downloaded the version that was successfully connected on the Server, but it still won't let me connect from Tableau Desktop. I have the parameters filled in, so it isn't related to those.
So the issue, if I understand correctly, is that you can't connet to the Tableau Server repository database from Tableau Desktop on your Mac, but you can from Tableau Server if you publish the TDS up directly, and you can via third-party tools from your Mac as well? Everything works everywhere except when you use Tableau Desktop from your Mac?
I wouldn't think that's a driver issue, because you're not getting an error about drivers. It's trying to connect, but can't. Typically I would suggest making sure you've opened up access, because that's the error I would expect if you hadn't. Or there's a firewall rule somewhere preventing you from connecting. But again, if you're able to connect to the repo via other PostgreSQL clients also running directly on your Mac, it kinda blows that idea up.
I'm not a Mac person so I'm not familiar with how to configure drivers on that OS, but Googling around, some other things I might suggest are:
Hope that helps. Maybe someone else can chime in on this who's encountered this kind of thing before.
Using the 03.01 versions of the twb files.
We have Tableau Server Version: 2022.1.6 (20221.22.0902.1602) 64-bit Linux. I'm using macOS Monterey Version 12.6 with Tableau Desktop Version 2022.1.4 (20221.22.0712.0324) 64-bit.
I try to connect to the server with... Server name XXXXXX Port 8060 Database workgroup Authentication Username and Password Username readonly Password XXXX and tried both Require SSL and not
The Error Message is :
The Postgres Driver is a JDBC jar file, and seems to be working, because I can connect to the repo via Terminal and Postico.
The /etc/odbcinst.ini file looks like this, because we use Redshift.
I'm wondering if the existence of this ODBC Driver for Redshift is somehow blocking the ability for Tableau Desktop to reach the Repo?
