I installed Sonarqube and did the initial StartSonar.bat and was able to pull up the system, make the login and get into the system.
Then I stopped the system and ran SonarService.bat install to setup the running as a service. I then rebooted the server and the service didnt start. When I checked the event viewer, I got the error above. I tried restarting the service but I get the same error as above.
I must apologize as I just learned that the community edition, you don’t have to even install SQL as thats for the Dev versions and higher. Once I deleted Community and put it back is when I noticed I could access without setting up the conf file.
They really should put somewhere in the documentation that with Community edition you don’t need to install SQL to run for testing purposes.
Once again I apologize for my lack of understanding and appreciate the assistance. I can now use this edition to scan my local project files.
I’m not sure what you mean by this. If you mean that you don’t need an external database, it’s true that SonarQube Community Build and SonarQube Server will fall back to the embedded H2 database to allow evaluation. And that’s for evaluation only. You should not to into production on H2.
