Discrepancy between SonarQube for IDE and SonarQube Server

SonarQube for IDE Eclipse
1

Please provide

  • Operating system: Windows
  • IDE name and version: Eclipse 2024.12
  • SonarQube for Eclipse plugin version: 11.3
  • Programming language you’re coding in: Java
  • Is connected mode used: Yes
    • SonarQube Cloud, SonarQube Server, or SonarQube Community Build? (if one of the latter two, which version?): Enterprise Edition 2025.1

And a thorough description of the problem / question:
We are running SonarQube for IDE in Eclipse in connected mode against our SonarQube Enterprise Edition Server. When we compare the issues in the Server versus what the IDE plugin reports, we see major discrepancies. For example:

  • issues reported as High in the Server don’t show up in the IDE plugin
  • IDE plugin reports a lot more issues than the Server.
  • Issues that we have marked as Won’t Fix on the Server still gets reported in the IDE
    How can we get the IDE and the Sever to be in syc with reported issues?

Hi,

Are you sure you’re seeing the same branch in both SonarQube and in SonarQube for Eclipse? That could certainly explain a discrepancy.

Also, could you share your log?

 
Thx,
