Database not being generated, still showing "Building your database" after 24 hours

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by 2

Good afternoon

 

I am trying to follow the Microsoft lessons to learn Power Apps. I have signed up for the free 'Power Apps per user plan Trial' to allow me to follow the lessons.

 

At the very first lesson "Create a table" I got in to Power Apps and it said we I had to create a database before creating tables, so I clicked the button for it to create a database over 24 hours ago but I still cannot do anything, it just has the message:

 

"No tables available yet. Building your database...

Tables are created in a Dataverse database. As soon as we're done building your database, you'll be ready to start creating tables..." 

 

I have searched on here already and found the same question, that was marked as 'Solved' stating to add a new environment from the Admin.powerplatform area, but that does not work for me I am unable to do it, it gives a message of

 

"This environment can't be created because your org (tenant) needs at least 1 GB of database capacity"

 

Still in the 'Admin.powerplatform > Environments' area, I can see that the original environment is set up from when I initially logged in, and when I go in to it, it says it is created and ready and the time stamp is just a couple of minutes after it was set up, but in Power Apps, when I go to tables it still has the "No tables available yet. Building your database..."

 

I have checked the Resources > Capacity form and that confirms that no data has been used yet, as I have not even been able to set a table up.

 

I also tried the help/support but all that does is direct me to instructions on how to set up a database or table, neither of which I can do.

Any ideas on how i can get this database build finished? I am presuming it is an automated process that just populates with OOB tables. 

I just want to be able to follow the online lessons so I can work towards my PL-200 certification.

 

Thank you

 

Dan

    @Stretchie_ ,

     

    Are you able to see your non-default Environment?
