<target name="sonar">
	<taskdef uri="antlib:org.sonar.ant" resource="org/sonar/ant/antlib.xml">
        	<classpath path="sonar-ant-task-2.3.jar" />
        </taskdef>

Hi Madhumohan,

> [@madhumohan](#):

> Please find the logs

These are unfortunately not the full logs: I would need the full logs from the line in which you launch the SonarScanner. Also, please can you tell what is the SonarScanner version you are using?

Thanks, regards,  
Daniel

Hi Mahumohan,

Please note that you seem to be using SonarScanner for Ant and therefore, the “sonar-scanner-4.4.0.2170-linux” version that you shared with me is irrelevant.

The problem is potentially due to your SonarScanner for Ant version (2.3) which is really old. You will have to [upgrade to SonarScanner for Ant 2.7](https://docs.sonarqube.org/latest/analysis/scan/sonarscanner-for-ant/) and try scanning again.

Cheers,  
Daniel
