Hello everyone,
Seems Power Apps made an update recently, my apps pop up many runtime error "Invalid Operation: Division by zero"
Imaging I have a formula written as
Share
ReportIfError(1/Cost, 0)
It should avoid this issue at all, but the error keeps pop up in the Apps Checker.
Is there a way we can disable this?
@v-xiaochen-msft
Please report to Microsoft and let us know what is being done about the bug.
Thanks.
It would appear that this error has resurfaced in Authoring Versions:
3.21123 & 3.21124
There are a number of bugs that were previously fixed, but have reappeared in these versions - so there's been some really shoddy Integration Testing by the product Team, and they've merged in a load of features that undoes the previous bug fixes.
As is also noted on this forum, Microsoft have also disabled the ability to use a previous Authoring version (the drop-down lost only ever gives you the option for the current version), so we're all kind of screwed until Microsoft (re)fix the engine - we simply can't edit any of our Apps at all, as doing so automatically upgrades them to the newest Authoring version, with no option to roll back.
We cannot continue using a product that just changes under our feet, without any warning, choice, or even the ability to feedback - As we all know, Microsoft support is WORSE THAN USELESS if you happen to know even a tiny bit about programming or development - so very difficult to actually talk to somebody that knows more than you do).
Microsoft NEED to manage their Authoring Release process a LOT better. we need:
In the mean time - PLEASE ALLOW US TO ROLL BACK TO AUTHORING VERSION 3.21115, which is the last version we used that didn't randomly throw "divide by zero" errors.
Hi @Anonymous ,
The issue has been reported to the Microsoft team.

Yes, it produces error even in a new environment.
Hi @Anonymous ,
Please do a simple test to verify if your environment has problems using IfError() function.
1\ Open this setting
2\ Add a textinput control 'TextInput1' and set its Default property to:
All responses (
Answers (""
3\ Add a lable and set its Text property to:
IfError(1/Value(TextInput1.Text),0,1/Value(TextInput1.Text))
Please check if it reports an error or works normally.

Thanks you, thats great. it also works fine for me this time as well.
However can you report/forward this issue to developers?
Cause I have many formulas like this, some are very calculation intense, add extra layer of verification in a clunky app is like grinding it to halt. eg.,
Text(
(Sum(
Cart_Gallery_Cart.AllItems,
Cart_TextInput_Price * Cart_TextInput_Quantity
) - Sum(
Cart_Gallery_Cart.AllItems,
Cart_Label_TotalPrice
)) / Sum(
Cart_Gallery_Cart.AllItems,
Cart_TextInput_Price * Cart_TextInput_Quantity
) * 100,
"[$-en-US] #0.00%"
)
Hi @Anonymous ,
Please try this formula.
If(IsBlank(Value(ct_lb_ps.Text)),0,RoundUp(ThisItem.Quantity / Value(ct_lb_ps.Text),0))
The formula works fine in my environment.
Best Regards,
Wearsky
RoundUp(ThisItem.Quantity / Value(ct_lb_ps.Text),0)This formula is written in a Gallery Label.
`ct_lb_ps` is also a Gallery Label.
This Gallery is using a Collection as data source.
This Collection is ClearCollected from a database with dynamical filter from previous page.
---
So everytime if modified the formula, the error message will be gone until you Save and Reopen.
