I have downloaded SonarQube 5.6.7 and then unzipped it and then browsed to bin directory and executing startsonar.bat.

Hi @likith_sunny ,

sonarqube 5.6.7 is end of live since a long time now. you should use our current LTS version (7.9.x) or our latest release (8.6) and check our requirements as well as our installation guide.

As a general advise there are more logs in the logs directory of your sonarqube installation, that contain more information about a failed start and other problems
