I have upgraded my SQ of community edition 7.9 LTS to community edition 8.9 LTS.
And later I found that I dont see the settings / config options for SAML authentication that were there on 7.9.
I am still able to authenticate with SAML SSO, but cant see those options in setting page.
After some digging, found that many plugins are bundled with SQ itself, - Plugin Version Matrix | SonarQube Docs
And only community plugins can be seen at marketplace page -
I searched in my SQ database (PostgerSQL), and found below in plugins table -
sonarqube_db=> select kee, type from plugins where type='EXTERNAL';
kee | type
-----------------------+----------
authgithub | EXTERNAL
scmsvn | EXTERNAL
ldap | EXTERNAL
authsaml | EXTERNAL
typescript | EXTERNAL
chef | EXTERNAL
shellcheck | EXTERNAL
scmgit | EXTERNAL
checkstyle | EXTERNAL
ansible | EXTERNAL
cloudformation | EXTERNAL
yaml | EXTERNAL
dependencycheck | EXTERNAL
findbugs | EXTERNAL
groovy | EXTERNAL
(15 rows)
And also found saml properties in table -
sonarqube_db=> select prop_key from properties where prop_key like '%saml%';
prop_key
-------------------------------------
sonar.auth.saml.user.login
sonar.auth.saml.user.name
sonar.auth.saml.user.email
sonar.auth.saml.enabled
sonar.auth.saml.group.name
sonar.auth.saml.providerId
sonar.auth.saml.loginUrl
sonar.auth.saml.certificate.secured
sonar.auth.saml.providerName
(9 rows)
So seems I am able to authenticate as saml options are there in DB, but how can I update them if required?
Dont see them in UI.
Should I delete these external plugins (saml, ldap etc) from backend and check again ?
