We have recently upgraded sonar-scanner cli to the latest release 5.0.0. Before anything, please note that we are downloading the binary to run it into a Jenkins instance. This was working until we recently upgraded to the latest release 5.0.0 that now embeds the JDK 17.
While running the analysis, we get this error:
13:24:26 ERROR: Unable to parse file: ****.
13:24:26 ERROR: Cannot parse '****': Cannot run program "****/sonar-go-to-slang-linux-amd64": error=13, Permission denied
After some investigation, we found out that the reason was the lack of execute permission for sonar-scanner/jre/lib/jspawnhelper. After adding a chmod +x for this executable in our pipeline, things got resolved and the analysis are running fine again.
I’m not very clear if our setup is too specific and we are the only ones hit by this but that will at least be documented somewhere if needed.
I experienced the same issue when upgrading the scanner to 5.0.0 to use JDK 17.
In our case we are downloading it in an AWS CodeBuild project before running the scanner.
It all worked fine before the upgrade. The problem is for a golang project.
I upgraded the scanner for another node.js project and it ran the scan successfully, however also noted problems with permissions.

Hopefully this can be resolved without needing to change executable permissions.
The same happens to us after upgrading Sonar Scanner from 4.7.0.2747 to 5.0.0.2966 in a Bitbucket Pipelines environment. After seeing this warning message on the scanner report, we decided to update the scanner version.
Warning
The version of Java (11.0.14.1) you have used to run this analysis is deprecated and we will stop accepting it soon. Please update to at least Java 17. Read more
However, the new version 5.0.0 fails:
ERROR: Error during SonarScanner execution
java.lang.IllegalStateException: java.io.IOException: Cannot run program "/opt/atlassian/pipelines/agent/build/.scannerwork/.sonartmp/7494877700764160272/subprocess" (in directory "/opt/atlassian/pipelines/agent/build/Src/QLPRLib/build"): error=13, Permission denied

I seem to be running into the same issue using a Github Action:

Yesterday it started warning that I should switch to JRE 17 and today it started failing without any configuration changes. I tried upgrading to SonarSource/sonarcloud-github-c-cpp@v2 but that doesn’t make a difference.
Github workflow is located here. I think it is pretty much a copy of what is suggested for the action.
We’ll take a decision by the end of today about whether or not to rollback the GitHub Action (to use the old version of the scanner), or to roll-forward, perhaps with the suggested change in this PR.
You can also, of course, revert to the previous version of the Scanner / GitHub action and put up with the warning about Java 17 in your analysis.
Thank you for the reports. It is still helpful if you can tell us what OS you are experiencing this on.
UPDATE: I also forgot to set execute permission on jspawnhelper - unfortunately it can be a common problem when using Sonar Scanner from Ant, because Ant unzip task does not preserve permissions. Therefore, when unzipped, no files in Sonar Scanner are executable.

@ganncamp you got me wrong - I didn’t use SonarScanner for Ant. I used a standalone version by fetching, unzipping and executing it from the Ant script. The problem is that when you unzip in the Ant script, as you would usually do for standalone SonarScanner, the Ant "unzip` task does not preserve file permissions and no extracted file can be executed. I think you should maybe document that somewhere because whoever using Ant migrates to standalone SonarScanner might get frustrated by such problems.
Hello Ann,
+1 on this same problem with the exact same sonar scanner 5.0.1.3006. So I integrated sonar scanner with Jenkins by manually downloading the zip file and unzipping into the Jenkins folder on my Ubuntu. Initially I faced problem with my JAVA and so I gave 775 permissions but cannot fix the node problem, strangely though sh ‘node -v’ works perfectly fine in earlier step within the Jenkins pipeline, but why does it fail later??
Since 5.0.1 should have fixed the permissions problem, I suspect you have something different going on. Can you start a new thread with all your details, please?
It would be good to include your full Jenkins job log, redacted as necessary.
