I recently upgraded from SonarQube 8.9 to SonarQube 9.9 LTS. The old one was running in container on an AWS EC2 instance. I just taken AMI backup and span a new EC2 instance and upgrade the SonarQube and Postgres version. However, the old was supproting https, but new one does not support the https and showing the error. Also, my sonarqube is integrated with jenkins and when jenkins is calling SonarMaven Scan, it’s getting failed with this error, however if I hardcode the URL with http://:9000, it was successful. Also, my code environment is different (java 8,11,17) and my jenkins servers and slaves are running with java 8 version by default but for code environment java 11,17, I set the java\_home path externally with JDK-11 and it was successful for SonarMaven Scan. How to solve the https issue where it’s not supporting the [https://URL](https://URL)?

```auto
[ERROR] Failed to execute goal org.sonarsource.scanner.maven:sonar-maven-plugin:3.7.0.1746:sonar (default-cli) on project xxx: Failed to upload report: Fail to request url: https://sonarqube.xxx.com/api/ce/submit?projectKey=com.xxx.xxx&projectName=xxx: Hostname sonarqube.xxx.com not verified (no certificates) 

```

`Successful one -> mvn sonar:sonar -Dsonar.qualitygate.wait=true -Dsonar.host.url=http://x.x.x.x:9000/) -f ./pom.xml`

Hi,

I’m not sure what was working for SonarQube 8.9, but you’ll need to setup a proxy if you want to use `HTTPS`, and it’s been that way for quite some time.

Hi Ann,

Thanks for you response. Can you please share the process to setup a proxy? My sonarqube is running inside docker container.

Thank you

Hi Ann,

Sorry, I forgot to mention that nginx (proxy) already running in container on the old instance (SQ 8.9) and new instance (SQ 9.9 lts) both.

Thank you

Hi Joy,

There’s some guidance in [the docs](https://docs.sonarsource.com/sonarqube/9.9/setup-and-upgrade/configure-and-operate-a-server/operating-the-server/#securing-the-server-behind-a-proxy), but we don’t get deeply into the topic; it’s a bit out of scope for us.
