Hello, I am getting this error(execvp: No such file or directory) while running the sonar scanner on Centos7. I have exported the build-wrapper path and defined the build\_ouput path.  
export PATH=$PATH:/home/bu  
[build-wrapper (1).log](https://community.sonarsource.com/uploads/short-url/vfVDQaz9H0NPmy3td2nmzbsFeYu.log) (4.9 KB)  
ilds/tsd-jenkins-be/build-wrapper-linux-x86  
build-wrapper-linux-x86-64 --out-dir /home/builds/sonarqube/lte\_build\_output make clean all

This is the version of build-wrapper that I’m using:  
build-wrapper, version 6.13 (linux-x86)

attached the build-wrapper-dump.json

Hi @kishore535 ,

Is `make clean all` your actual build command? Or did you just use the generic example from our [documentation](https://docs.sonarqube.org/latest/analysis/languages/cfamily/#header-5)? You should append `build-wrapper-linux-x86-64 --out-dir /home/builds/sonarqube/lte_build_output` with the command that you usually use to cleanly build your project. If your project doesn’t build with `make`, this will not work.

Please figure out the command that you use to build your own project before procceding.

Hello team, we are not using make , we are using jam.sh file for build , what will be the approach for this

[backend@lonsonar01 build]$ build-wrapper-linux-x86-64 --out-dir /home/backend/product\_kernel/build/ jam.sh all  
build-wrapper: execvp: Not a directory  
[backend@lonsonar01 build]$

Hello @Devops_world , does your project build with just `jam.sh all`?

Hi,  
I am having same error from our Jenkins build.  
**15:25:15** + build-wrapper-linux-x86/build-wrapper-linux-x86-64 --out-dir cfamily-output make clean all  
**15:25:15** build-wrapper: execvp: No such file or directory  
“make clean all” is the actual build command.  
Any idea?

Thanks
