Still facing same issue. ##[error][SQ] API GET ‘/api/server/version’ failed, error is request to [https://sonar.com/api/server/version](https://sonar.com/api/server/version) failed, reason: unable to verify the first certificate ---

Hi, Welcome to the community! Is that literally the error you’re seeing? Given the domain in the error is `https://sonar.com`, I suspect your SonarQube server URL has been misconfigured somewhere.   HTH, Ann ---

Hi, URL is correct. It is [https://sonar.xyz.com](https://sonar.xyz.com). ---

Hi, Your SonarQube domain is `https://sonar.xyz.com` but what shows up in the error is `https://sonar.com`. Again, I think you’ve misconfigured your SonarQube server URL somewhere.   HTH, Ann ---

I am also getting this error with Azure Dev Ops. ##[error][SQ] API GET ‘/api/server/version’ failed, error is request to [https://sonarqube-sre.apps.ocptest.NAME.com/api/server/version](https://sonarqube-sre.apps.ocptest.NAME.com/api/server/version) failed, reason: unable to verify the first certificate ---

I dont believe that is the issue. I am able to make the curl command in a script without any ssl issues right before the task is triggered without any ssl errors. - task: SonarQubePrepare@5 What all is this task actually doing? Maybe I can recreate it with a script to find exactly the problem ---

As a work around I am just using the cli and I noticed it also had cert issues. What I ended up doing is installing the keystore to the jvm that comes with the cli. I then thought maybe that needs to be done with the java on the agent already so I did this but still getting a cert issue. Is there anything else that can be hiding? - script: | sudo keytool -import -alias sonarqube-sre -keystore /usr/lib/jvm/temurin-11-jdk-amd64/lib/security/cacerts -file .azuredevops/sonarqube\_cert.pem -storepass changeit -noprompt ---

Hi, All I can recommend is making sure, as the SO answer I linked to describes, that the entire chain is in the keystore. Or you could stop using self-signed certs.   Ann
