Must-share information (formatted with Markdown):

  • which versions are you using (SonarQube Server / Community Build, Scanner, Plugin, and any relevant extension)
  • how is SonarQube deployed: zip, Docker, Helm: ZIP
  • what are you trying to achieve: Run Analysis with prepare analysis version 7
  • what have you tried so far to achieve this:- Upgraded Prepare analysis and Run Analysis task from version 5 to version 7

Do not share screenshots of logs – share the text itself (bonus points for being well-formatted)!

We are using Sonar Analaysis task in build pipeline to run analysis for DB projects. We are using Option in Prepare Analysis “Use Standalone SonarScanner CLI”. After running the task it was publishing the Analysis to Sonar Qube with version 5. Since we have upgraded our Sonar Qube from Version 9.9.3 to 2025.1 it starts failing and showing no result.

in Prepare Analysis tasks we are getting certificate error

[INFO]  SonarQube Server: Server version: 2025.1.0.102418
[INFO]  SonarQube Server: Unable to get default branch, defaulting to 'master': Error: unable to get local issuer certificate

Also in Publish Quality gate getting below error:-

Task         : **Publish Quality Gate Result**

Hi,

To make sure, we’re talking about version 7 of the Azure DevOps task?

The internet tells me your error means:

the client (e.g., your browser, application, or command-line tool) cannot verify the server’s certificate because it’s missing a necessary intermediate or root certificate in its trust chain. This usually happens when the server’s certificate chain is incomplete or the client hasn’t been properly configured with the necessary certificates.

I’m guessing you’re using a self-signed certificate, and haven’t imported all the intermediate certs.
