Error during SonarQube Scanner execution - NullPointerException

Failed During upload to Sonar.
I Run BuildWrapper on a remote host, than I ran the upload tool on different host.
I already have this project uploaded to Sonar.

Hi @benyahu,

what version of SonarCFamily plugin do you have?
Could you update SonarCFamily analyzer to its latest version 6.6 and rerun the analysis?

Hi have 6.3
Will update and update here for status

After updating, still got the same issue.
Also got suggestion to add - sonar.cfamily.cache.enabled=false, so I did it.

Hi @benyahu,

could you please share the build-wrapper folder content?

buildWrapper.7z.txt (411.7 KB) build-wrapper-dump.json.txt (4.0 MB)

I upload it, and the buildwrapper is zipped.

Hi @benyahu,

from build-wrapper.log it seems that you are using build-wrapper 6.1:

Thu Dec 19 14:07:20 2019: build-wrapper, version 6.1 (linux-x86)

Could you please retry with build-wrapper 6.6?
You can download it from: {SonarQube URL}/static/cpp/build-wrapper-linux-x86.zip where {SonarQube URL} is the url to your SonarQube instance.

If the problem persist could you please share again the build-wrapper folder content and the sonar-scanner output log with the new version?

MAKE_OUT-buildwrapper.7z.txt (221.7 KB)

Hi @benyahu,

the build-wrapper-dump.json seems good, it may be related to the sonar-scanner properties. Could you please share the output log of sonar-scanner with --debug option?

sonar.txt (87.9 KB)

Hi @benyahu,

the issue comes from the fact that you are building the source files in:

/tmp/daily_vma_build/libvma/src/vma

and you analyze them from:

/builds2/ci_builds/fit71_jenkins_master/workspace/Rivermax_VMA_upload_results_to_sonar/VMA/

The analyzer needs to match the paths in the build-wrapper-dump.json to the analyzed files which means you should build and analyze the same sources checkout.

So what I can do if I have one machine that build and one machine to upload ?
It should run from the same paths ?

Hi @benyahu,

you should build and analyze on the same machine, it is a prerequisite, you cannot build and analyze in two different machines.
