Hi,
AFAIK, the SLE 4.0 plugin is only released internal, but not available yet for download at https://www.sonarlint.org/eclipse/ - means not released official.
Seems you use some development version !?
Regards,
Gilbert

Ravi_Bharathi · October 23, 2018, 12:06pm

I got software update notification in my eclipse and I updated to the new version. I did not know that it is internal version

anon67236913 · October 24, 2018, 6:22am

Hi,
ok that’s interesting. We use https://sonarsource.bintray.com/SonarLint-for-Eclipse/releases/ as update site
which has 3.6.0 as latest version, there’s no 4.x
Does the Sonarlint console view / verbose ouput reveal something useful ?
Regards,
Gilbert

Ravi_Bharathi · October 24, 2018, 7:04am

No errors on the console / verbose output

anon67236913 · October 24, 2018, 7:05am

Hi,
what is the URL of your updatesite ?

Gilbert

Ravi_Bharathi · October 24, 2018, 8:43am

Hi Gilbert,
This is the update site URL I am using http://marketplace.eclipse.org/content/sonarlint

Ravi Bharathi

anon67236913 · October 24, 2018, 10:40am

Hi,
we can’t use the Eclipse marketplace, all of our Eclipse plugins are updated via Sonatype Nexus P2 proxy.
I’m a bit confused, as also at https://www.sonarsource.com/resources/product-news/ and here in the community forum there is no news about the release of SLE 4.0 ?!
From the comments at http://marketplace.eclipse.org/content/sonarlint it seems you’re not the only one with that problem related to Eclipse Photon (4.8).
Hope this gets cleared up by the Sonarlint team soon, as we’ve planned to update to SLE 4.0 under Eclipse Photon as soon as it is official available. With SLE 3.6.0 there are no problems in Eclipse Photon.
Regards,
Gilbert

Ravi_Bharathi · October 24, 2018, 11:11am

Thanks for the clarity, I will downgrade to 3.6.

I feel Sonarlint team need to fix also the link to sonarlint plugin, please see this link “https://www.sonarlint.org/eclipse/” where it says Sonarlint 3.6 is release and refers to eclipse marketplace to download the plugin. But Eclipse marketplace has 4.0 version, which is causing the issue.

Even “https://www.sonarlint.org/eclipse/” site also downloads only 4.0, please refer the image below.

Do you know to configure eclipse to refer to official sonarlint release site?

janos · October 24, 2018, 12:28pm

To avoid further confusion, I confirm 4.0 is indeed released. We’re just awaiting the official announcement, to be soon followed by the website update.

As for your issue, I don’t know what could be the problem, yet.

When something goes wrong at that step, we would expect to see either a pop-up with an error message + details, or messages on the SonarLint Console. You mentioned earlier in this thread that you see nothing on the console. Do you confirm that you looked at the SonarLint Console? (The label “SonarLint Console” should be visible at the top of this console.)

xbourguignon · October 24, 2018, 2:00pm

Download site has changed some weeks ago (see Download site has changed!), update site is now https://binaries.sonarsource.com/SonarLint-for-Eclipse/releases/

anon67236913 · October 24, 2018, 4:14pm

Hi Xavier,
thanks for the hint, totally missed that.
Regards,
Gilbert

Julien_HENRY · October 25, 2018, 7:15am

Hi @Ravi_Bharathi

I just gave a try and this is working fine for me. The wizard is closing and immediately starts another wizard to bind projects:

May I ask you to open the Eclipse “Error Log” view. In case of exception in the background, you should see an entry, and opening it you should also have a stacktrace.

Thanks

Ravi_Bharathi · October 25, 2018, 9:02am

Hi @Julien_HENRY,
After reinstalling Sonarlint from the update site “https://binaries.sonarsource.com/SonarLint-for-Eclipse/releases/” I am able to get pass the finish button and new dialog opened to add the projects to bind. Now I get below error when binding the project.

Below error I got first time while adding the project

Julien_HENRY · October 25, 2018, 9:31am

The first error is caused by the community Scala plugin. The problem is that they are using the same plugin key as our upcoming official Scala plugin, so SonarLint is confused.

Can I ask you what is the version of your SonarQube server, to better evaluate our options?

The second error is probably a consequence of the first one.

Ravi_Bharathi · October 25, 2018, 10:14am

@Julien_HENRY
We are using SonarQube server Version 6.7.3 (build 38370)

Julien_HENRY · October 25, 2018, 11:33am

I created a ticket to fix that:
https://jira.sonarsource.com/browse/SLE-290

In the meantime, your options are:

uninstall this plugin from SonarQube
revert to the previous SonarLint version

anon67236913 · October 26, 2018, 8:03am

Hi Julien,
i confirm the errors @Ravi_Bharathi detected.
Our Environment = SQ 5.6.6 and 7.3, Eclipse Photon and Oxygen, Win 7
*** We have no Scala plugin installed ! ***

When updating from SLE 3.6.0 to 4.0.0 on Eclipse Photon (dark theme) several problems occured:

Problem 1
after the update the SLE views could not be loaded
before update

after update

Closing the view tabs and open via Window / Show View… didn’t help. So i closed Eclipse deleted the .sonarlint folder of the workspace and started Eclipse again, now the views can be opened, but

Problem 2
Because of deleting the .sonarlint folder before, i have to update the bindings. But one of the SQ 5.6.6 bindings doesn’t work, it remains in the status updating data…

binding_update

Trying to update this server connection results in

Hi @anon67236913

The first error (view can’t be displayed) indicates that SonarLint plugin failed at startup. To investigate, I would have needed Eclipse logs (the error you show is just a consequence).

The second error is due to an incompatible plugin. Can you provide the list + versions of your plugins in this SonarQube instance?

Thanks
