The SonarQube MSBuild integration failed: SonarQube was unable to collect the required information about your projects.
Possible causes:

1. The project has not been built - the project must be built in between the begin and end steps
2. An unsupported version of MSBuild has been used to build the project. Currently MSBuild 14.0 and 15.0 are supported
3. The begin, build and end steps have not all been launched from the same folder
4. None of the analyzed projects have a valid ProjectGuid and you have not used a solution (.sln)

Hi @suman_kar, it seems that your project cannot be built - there are multiple lines with this message in your logs C:\Users\RUDRA\Desktop\eShopOnWeb-master\src\Infrastructure\Infrastructure.csproj.metaproj : warning MSB4078: The proje ct file “src\Infrastructure\Infrastructure.csproj” is not supported by MSBuild and cannot be built.

Do you have any advices when the project is built well in Visual Studio, but not in MSBuild.exe or dotnet build?

In my case, i get messages like :

C:\Builds\1\MBS.Payments.Forms.Mvc\MBS Payment Forms MVC\Sources\MBS.Payments.Forms.Mvc\MBS.Forms.Payments.Web\MBS.Forms.Payments.Web.csproj (979): The imported project “C:\Program Files (x86)\MSBuild\Microsoft\VisualStudio\v11.0\WebApplications\Microsoft.WebApplication.targets” was not found.

Do you have any idea?

Unfortunately I cannot say what could be the problem. If you already have a working CI build you could see how it is configured and try to replicate the commands locally. Or you could just start from there and execute the begin and end steps of Scanner for MSBuild before and after the compilation step in your build definition. How to do that depends on what build system you are using (TFS/VSTS, Jenkins, etc.). For example, we have extensions for:

• TFS/VSTS
• Jenkins

If you don’t have CI, I am afraid that it would be difficult to provide help on that, as this is something specific to your needs and I am not in a position to recommend solutions.
