1

Summary:

  • The demo of SonarQube only work for a seconds following steps in Get Started in Two Minutes Guide.

Enviroment:

  • Windows 10 + 4 Cores + 16Gb Ram + JDK-11.0.4
  • Fresh instance of SonarQube 7.9.1 (Downloaded from “Get Started in Two Minutes Guide” page).

Steps to reproduce:
1.- Download Comunity Edition instance. “Get Started in Two Minutes Guide” page redirect to download page.
2.- Unzip it in *C:\sonarqube-7.9.1*
3.- Execute “C:\sonarqube\bin\windows-x86-xx\StartSonar.bat” in the console. All seems ok. Log:

5.- After several seconds (Sometimes 5 seconds…sometimes I can create a new project, maybe 20 seconds) the application crash. Log:

6.- es.log shows several errors as the following. I dont know if it is related:

P.S.: use the bug:fault sub-category if you’re hitting a specific crash/error , or the #bug:fp sub-category for rules-related behaviour

Can anyone help me?
Thank you. Regards,

Hi Inigo,

Welcome to the community!

For the record, any time you have errors in your logs, it’s really better to include the full stacktrace with a few lines before for context.

Google translate tells me the error you’re getting about the connection being closed by the host. Since the “remote” address is actually on the same machine, then we’re looking at something on the machine killing the connection, and so SonarQube shuts down because it doesn’t have access to all the resources it needs.

I suspect that Windows or some automated process is “helpfully” killing off “suspicious” connections it doesn’t recognize. This belief is fueled by the fact that I’ve never encountered similar problems on Linux.

 
HTH,
