Jacoco.exec or java .class files are not detected by sonar scanner - throwing indexed with language 'null'

I am trying to set up pipeline which includes calculating code coverage using jacoco and pushing to sonarqube dashboard for my Functional Test cases.

I have copied the jacoco.exec file and all class files from my application server to jenkin server and trying to do sonar analysis. The sonar scanner identifies all class files but it is not detecting as java file even after passing the sonar.java.binaries properties correctly

hello @jagan_nathan,

you don’t need to copy exec file and classes. It would be easier to import XML report for coverage. I’ve written detailed post how to do it here [Coverage & Test Data] Importing JaCoCo coverage report in XML format

Import of jacoco.exec coverage was dropped in sonar-java 6.0
