Facing issue while starting the SonarQube Server

SonarQube Server / Community Build
1

Hi,
We have installed Sonarqube 8.1 community edition in Windows environment.
Oracle XE 18 version has also been installed and the steps like creating the schema, granting the required permissions, placing the ojdbc jar file in “$SONARQUBE-HOME/extensions/jdbc-driver/oracle”, etc. have been completed. And these details have been configured in sonar.properties file.

While trying to start the Sonarqube Server using StartSonar.bat file, the “es” process is started successfully. But it is failing while starting the “web” process. The below error has been captured in the “web.log” file. Kindly help.

Hello Divja, and welcome to the Sonarsource community .

The message

Caused by: org.apache.catalina.LifecycleException: Failed to initialize connector [Connector[HTTP/1.1-9002]]

is very often because the port (9002) is already in use in your system. Could you please check this first ?

Regards,

Eric

Hi Eric,

Yeah, I checked that and the port is not being used by any other process. I tried using different ports as well but still getting the same error.

Thanks.

Regards,
Divya

Hey @jdivya I am now fighting the same issue. Did you find a fix ?
