PCF Sonarqube installation getting max file descriptors [16384] for elasticsearch process is too low

[daichi703n (Daichi Kimura)]

Hi, Ambrish

I have same issue.
I was able to run SonarQube 9.3 on Cloud Foundry (PCF 2.11) without bootstrap checking by SONAR_ES_BOOTSTRAP_CHECKS_DISABLE: true . I know this option will cause another problem, but it works for me.

Could you try this?

This option (sonar.es.bootstrap.checks.disable) is discribed in here.

Docker install elastic search vm.max_map_count

Hi @andrew.currie , are you running docker with nested virtualization on hyper-v? if yes you might need to adjust the settings inside your vm. one approach to this would be to use docker compose to create a kind of init container: version: "3" services: sonarqube: image: sonarqube:7.9.5-community depends_on: - init environment: SONARQUBE_JDBC_URL: jdbc:sqlserver://xx.xxx.xx.xx;databaseName=DBName SONARQUBE_JDBC_USERNAME: username SONARQUBE_JDBC_PASSWORD: …

my manifest.yml for CF:

applications:
- name: sonar-v9
  memory: 4g
  instances: 1
  health-check-type: http
  health-check-http-endpoint: /
  routes:
    - route: sonar-v9.((domain))
  command: |
    wget -q -P /opt/sonarqube/extensions/plugins/ https://github.com/sleroy/sonar-slack-notifier-plugin/releases/download/2.6.0/cks-slack-notifier-2.6.0.jar && \
    ./bin/run.sh
  docker:
    image: sonarqube:9.3.0-community
