java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: 'other' has different root

Must-share information (formatted with Markdown):

which versions are you using (SonarQube 7.9.4, sonar-maven-plugin:3.7.0.1746, Git repository)
what are you trying to achieve: running mvn sonar:sonar from a base dir which contains a symlink
what have you tried so far to achieve this: see description below…

We use a symlink from C:\User\jenkins-data -> D:\app\BuildServer\jenkins-data which leads to a failure when running the command mvn sonar:sonar from the symlink location, e.g. C:\User\jenkins-data\workspace\Application-Updater-Nightly.
Running the same from the resolved path D:\app\BuildServer\jenkins-data\workspace\Application-Updater-Nightly works but defeats the purpose of the symlink…

Similar things have been reported but with different stack traces:

Hi @jansohn

It seems you may have found a limitation of the scanner. I have created https://jira.sonarsource.com/browse/SONAR-14210 to look closer into this.

Cheers,
Mark
