Dotnet-sonarscanner fails to access to server

soheils · April 30, 2021, 9:45am

Hi all,
I’m running a dotnet-sonarscanner within an organisation gitlab instance to access sonarqube instance (which runs on an organisation machine.)

From gitlab pipeline I can see the SonarQube machine:
curl http://MY-SONAR-QUBE-Instance
but can not access /api/server/version when I run the following, it fails (timeout).
curl http://MY-SONAR-QUBE-Instance/api/server/version

Even running the scanner, fails:
dotnet sonarscanner begin /d:sonar.host.url="$SONARQUBE_URL" /d:sonar.verbose=true /k:"$SONARQUBE_PROJECT_KEY" /d:sonar.login=“SONARQUBE_AUTH_TOKEN”

09:00:11.993  Failed to request and parse 'http://MY-SONAR-QUBE-Instance/api/server/version': The operation was canceled.

SonarQube version is 7.7.0.23042

Any ideas why we get this error? How can we resolve it?

regards,
Soheil

Please I have a similar problem, with the command:

dotnet sonarscanner begin /k:“newproct” /d:sonar.host.url=“http://mysonarserver:9000” /d:sonar.login=“token”

with the following message:

Failed to request and parse ‘http: // mysonarserver: 9000 / api / server / version’: Object reference not set to an instance of an object.
Unhandled exception. System.NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object.

I have the Sonarqube server 8.8.0

Hi @soheils and welcome to the community.

Maybe you want to fix this before going further ? Please note also that your version of SonarQube is not supported anymore. A good move would be to update to the 7.9 LTS (which will be replaced in the coming days by the new LTS (8.9).

mickaelcaro · May 4, 2021, 6:45am

Hi @rolandomf1

Can you try to ping this URL from a IWR or IRM powershell command to this is this is scanner related or not ?

Thanks.

rolandomf1 · May 4, 2021, 12:43pm

I can’t get there with ping, I didn’t realize that.

rolandomf1 · May 4, 2021, 6:22pm

now if I arrive with ping, but the same problem continues.

mickaelcaro · May 5, 2021, 6:52am

What did you do to be able to ping that URL ?

soheils · May 9, 2021, 7:20am

Thanks for your reply.
As it’s on the corporate network running in a Docker, the IT team will upgrade it but not clear when it will happen.

I’m wondering if there is any settings that need to be applied on SonarQube , as the server URL is accessible by curl command but SonarQube API is not accessible.
Can this be an issue is CORS setting in SonarQube? I read a post about setting Access-Control-Allow-Origin: * on SonarQube server in
https://community.sonarsource.com/t/facing-cors-policy-issue-when-calling-the-sonarqube-apis-using-http-in-angularjs/6361

Not sure if it can help, but where should I set this in SonarQube server?

pierreguillot · May 12, 2021, 7:10am

Hi, API calls from the scanner are not sensitive to CORS policy. Now that you fixed the ping issue you had, what is the error you have on the scanner side?

rolandomf1 · May 25, 2021, 12:47pm

the same problem keeps appearing, the following message appears:

Hi, guys.

I am working with 8.9 LTS version and facing the same problem.
The GITLAB Pipeline is running sonar-scanner command at windows server.
The message error is Failed to request and parse ‘http://xxxxxxxx:9000/api/server/version’: Object reference not set to an instance of an object.

The problem is that I access this server and type this URL at browser and it returns the Sonarqube version “8.9.0.43852”. There isn’t firewall or proxy between the servers.

MaxouMask · June 29, 2021, 9:43am

Hello everyone,

Facing the same issue with SonarScanner.MsBuild.exe (I’ve tried with version 5.2.1 and 5.2.0)
The Sonarqube is a docker image (tag: lts-community)

I’ve opened the URL (http://localhost:9000/api/server/version) in a browser and same as @alevenelli I’ve the version number displayed in plain text.
