Error executing SonarScanner on aarch64

SonarQube Server / Community Build
1

Hello,

I have installed SonarScanner for Linux AArch64 on a docker image (also aarch64).

When launching the command sonar-scanner -Dsonar.login="${SONAR_TOKEN}" -Dsonar.projectBaseDir=$(pwd) -Dsonar.verbose=true -X it’s trying to run a version of the sonar-go-to tool-slang-linux-amd64 file which is not valid on the aarch64 platform.

Information of interest:

Can you help me, please? Thank you so much.

Hey there.

Thanks for the report. This is a known issue unfortunately, tracked at [SONARGO-25] - Jira. I’ve linked your thread to help the ticket build traction.

I’m facing the same issue and don’t have access to check the status of SONARGO-25 . Has there been any progress?.

@jujoramos

What version of SonarQube are you using? It should be supported as of SonarQube Server v2025.3 and SonarQube Community Build v25.5

Hey Colin, thanks for your quick reply!.

We’re far behind the latest on the Server Side I’m afraid…

13:10:14  12:10:13.999 INFO  SonarScanner CLI 7.2.0.5079

13:10:17  12:10:16.776 INFO  Communicating with SonarQube Server 9.9.2.77730

Is there any available workaround I could apply with the current versions?.

No, unfortunately! SonarQube Server 9.9 is EOL, and you should upgrade ASAP for feature and security updates.
