Using the .NET Core version of the Scanner for MSBuild
Post-processing started.
14:26:48.11  The SonarScanner for MSBuild integration failed: SonarCloud was unable to collect the required information about your projects.
Possible causes:
14:26:48.11  Generation of the sonar-properties file failed. Unable to complete the analysis.
  1. The project has not been built - the project must be built in between the begin and end steps.
  2. An unsupported version of MSBuild has been used to build the project. Supported versions: MSBuild 16 and higher.
  3. The begin, build and end steps have not all been launched from the same folder.
  4. None of the analyzed projects have a valid ProjectGuid and you have not used a solution (.sln).
14:26:48.111  sonar-project.properties files are not understood by the SonarScanner for MSBuild. Remove those files from the following folders: D:\a\***\***
14:26:48.112  Post-processing failed. Exit code: 1
Error: Process completed with exit code 1.

Also

SonarQube analysis could not be completed because the analysis configuration file could not be found: D:\a\{project directory}\.sonarqube\conf\SonarQubeAnalysisConfig.xml.
