The sonarqube is not able to get info about the project ,since there is already biuld --force i don’t know what else to try ,I am already configured sonarqube task for MSBUILD ,and if i disable the task related to sonarqube(first one and the last two) there are no errors.
Any help will be appreciated

Hi and welcome to the community!

Is this a .NET solution or a JavaScript project? The reason I ask this is because the build command you are showing seems to be calling Grunt (JS tool) but the Scanner you seem to be using is the SonarScanner for MSBuild. For a JavaScript project, you will want the SonarScanner CLI configured in your “Prepare Analysis” task. To ensure this, when configuring the pipeline task you should choose “Use standalone scanner”.

I realise the official documentation has a mistake on this (it says you should select “Integrate with MSBuild” for a JS project) and we will make sure to correct it.

Thanks, regards,
Daniel

Hi,

This is because you must define the Project Key for your project. There are two ways to do this:

  • You create a sonar-project.properties file in the root folder of your project and declare the parameter sonar.projectKey=<your_unique_project_key>. In your Azure “Prepare Analysis” task, you will need to select “Store configuration with my source code (sonar-project.properties)” when configuring it. In your .YML file, this looks like:

      -task: SonarQubePrepare@4
    inputs:
      scannerMode: 'CLI'
      configMode: 'file'

  • You pass the project key on your .yml pipeline file manually. In your Azure “Prepare Analysis” task, you will need to select “Manually provide configuration”. In the .YML file, this looks like:

      -task: SonarQubePrepare@4
    inputs:
      scannerMode: 'CLI'
      configMode: 'manual'
      cliProjectKey: 'yourKeyHere'
      cliSources: '.'

This is the task configuration panel as shown in Azure:

Please make sure to read the official docs on this link, as this is explained there.

Hi,

Please make sure to share the full logs in text format (you can zip them and upload them here) and not a screenshot of the logs, so that myself or anyone else can help you.

I will be glad to have a look at it when you share the full logs.

Cheers,
Daniel

i think it is related to out of memory exception

Hi,

Indeed, your analysis fails due to not enough memory available in the system. How large (lines of code) is the project you are trying to scan? This will help answering the question of what should be the required memory for the scanner.

Can you try adding this environment variable : SONAR_SCANNER_OPTS with this kind of value :
-Xmx512M (or higher)

in order to increase your heap space, which appears to be 54MB. Look at this thread in the community.

Cheers,
