Issue with running SonarQube Community Edition on Windows Server 2022

SonarQube Server / Community Build
1

Hi,
I’m trying to run SonarQube community edition on a windows server 2022 but I’m not having any luck. It seems like it gets stuck on waiting for Elastic Search to start and that never happens. I have installed Java JDK 21 and PostgreSql 16 on that machine. So, everything is running locally. The following is what I see on the console when I try to run the StartSonar.bat as well as what I see in the different log files. Any thoughts?

Welcome :slight_smile:

Sonarqube 10.4 has still Java 17 as requirement for the server.
see Prerequisites and overview

So you should try with Java 17 instead of Java 21 first.
It’s not recommended to install Sonarqube and the database on the same machine, Sonarqube
should run on a dedicated machine / VM.

Try with Java 17, then if still problems post the whole es.log

That worked. Thank you so much.
