Error "Connection attempt failed: could not translate host name ... to address" Opening Workbook

問題

When viewing a workbook published to Tableau Server the following error might occur:

TableauException: <driver version> Connection attempt failed: could not translate host name "<server name>" to address: Unknown host Unable to connect to the server "<server name>". Check that the server is running and that you have access privileges to the requested database.

Workbook can be viewed in Tableau Desktop without issue.

解決方法

Option 1

Work with local IT team to ensure that the computer running Tableau Server can resolve the IP address of the server named in the error message.

Option 2

In Tableau Desktop, edit the connection and replace the server name in database connection with the IP address of the database server.

Note: This option works only if the computer running Tableau Server can connect to the database server with the IP address.
