Upon configuring the connection I see the following error dialog regardless of whether I choose token authentication or user/pw.
The server URL has the pattern https://sonar.company.com. It is “correct” as in I can navigate to it in the browser.
The IntelliJ logs contain no entries coming from this plugin.
I am also looking into this with the server admins. The main issue IMO here is the lack of (debugging) information.
Hi @marcelstoer
May I ask you to open the SonarLint log tab, enable verbose logs, and retry. Please share with use the output.
Thanks
Oh, great, that’s what I had been looking for. It was my first encounter with this plugin and I didn’t realize I could get those logs there, sorry.
Here’s my (redacted) log:
Connection test failed

This is the confirmation that some system in between my notebook and the SonarQube server intercepts the request and responds with some HTML. I now have a pretty good idea what this is. I suspected the plugin to call https://sonar.company.com/web_api and tested with cURL as well.
