Repro steps

  1. Install Azure Devops 17.143.28621.4

  2. SonarSource extension version 4.6.3 installed

  3. Sonarqube server configured as generic service

  4. Sonar C# version 7.11 installed

  5. SonarVB version 7.11 installed

Expected behavior

The MSBuild executable is located and the quality profile is fetched.

Actual behavior

I receive numerous warnings regarding deprecation of the Sonarsource plugin although I am running the latest version installed via instructions found at https://aka.ms/sqtransfer

I receive an error stating the MSBuild executable cannot be found on the Sonarqube server

Known workarounds

None known

Related information

Is it posible I am inadvertently using the Sonarqube tasks associated with the deprecated Sonarqube functionality instead of the sonarqube tasks that come with the Sonarqube extension?

Edit: This is definitely the case - the Sonarqube extension, while showing installed, is not consumable from within TFS. In addition to only the deprecated tasks being available for insertion into a pipeline “Sonarqube” is also missing as a service type (I previously set mine up as a generic service type).

Any thoughts on why the Sonarqube extension is not working?

Solved: Sonarqube was not installed to the project collection.

You do that here:
