SonarQube Server / Community Build

Im trying to create admin user token. Retreiving list of tokens works, but creation gives me 400 code.

Sonarqube 9.6.0-community with from docker (container name sonar-app-nodb)
Jenkins 2.418 (docker)
HTTP Request Plugin 1.18 HTTP Request

pipeline:

        stage('tokens'){
            steps{
                script{
                     def response = httpRequest(
                        acceptType: 'APPLICATION_JSON', contentType: 'APPLICATION_JSON',
                        url:"${apiurl}/user_tokens/search",
                        authentication: 'sonarcreds',
                        httpMode:'GET'
                        )
                    println("Status: "+response.status)
                    println("Content: "+response.content)
                }
            }
            
        }
        
        stage('create token'){
            steps{
                script{
                     def response = httpRequest(
                        acceptType: 'APPLICATION_JSON', contentType: 'APPLICATION_JSON',
                        url:"${apiurl}/user_tokens/generate",
                        authentication: 'sonarcreds',

                }

Hi,

I’m glad you worked through your problem. You should be aware that your version is past EOL. You should upgrade to either the latest version or the current LTS at your earliest convenience. Your upgrade path is:

9.6 → 9.9.1 → 10.2 (last step optional)

You may find these resources helpful:

If you have questions about upgrading, feel free to open a new thread for that here.

Thanks. Unfortunately its not my decision. Im dependent on the version provided by our platform engineers in our automation platform. I already asked them for update and they will do it as soon as they have time to test it’s backwards compatibility with the rest of the projects.
