Hi @mmantel

Given the logs, it seems that you are using the SCM-TFVC community plugin, which apparently requires the missing DLL.

You can install it (maybe again) from here
: https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=ErinDormierMSFT.TeamFoundationServer2013Update4ObjectModelInstalle

Could you please let us know if it’s working again ?

Thank you.

Mickaël

Sorry, just saw this. Will reinstall it and let you know. Thx.

Hi, Mickael. Please, where the missing dll must be installed? in the TFS agent server or in the SonarQube server??
Thanks!
Jorge E. Ulloa

On the TFS agent i would say

Hosting was unwilling to install the older version of OMI as we are on a newer version. But the Build is not failing now, just getting a bunch of warning and a couple of errors. I am not sure what changed as it was failing. Here are the logs:

Failed to create a build property. Not blocking unless you are using the Sonar Pre-Deployment gate in Release Pipelines. Exception : Error: unable to verify the first certificate

Check the version of MSBuild that is being used on the build agent. Microsoft.CodeAnalysis.dll ships with MSBuild, and this message normally means that the version of MSBuild is too old. Version v14.0.25420.1 or later is required.

Team Foundation object model: the OM is a client-side wrapper that makes it easier for client-side applications to call the TFS web APIs. If I remember correctly, the newer versions of the TFS still support the web APIs from older version so the OM for TFS2013 will work against a newer version of TFS.

Installing it on the build agent won’t do any harm to other applications, and the SCM-Tfvc plugin won’t work without it (and in fact, I think that the Scanner for MSBuild requires the same OM to correctly process code coverage reports for TFS).

Hi Duncan, we seem to having the same issue. We use the hosted pipelines from Azure DevOps, and even if we use VS2019 on there, I see the following errors (only part from the output). Is this something for SonarCloud or something I need to report to Microsoft?

Hi @zaat,

That’s not a SonarCloud issue (the job has managed to successfully fetch the configuration and assemblies from SonarCloud; it’s failing when trying to build on the build agent).

FYI I’ve successfully built and analysed one of my solutions (SonarLint for Visual Studio) using hosted Azure Pipelines and SonarCloud multiple times today and not had any problems. My jobs are using the old “Hosted VS2017” agent pool.

As a test, I’ve just triggered a build using “Agent pool: Azure Pipelines, Agent Specification: windows-2019”. The log is here. The overall job failed because we need VS2017 for the tests, but the build step completed successfully, and you can see analysis issue in the log.

@duncanp, thanks for the quick reply!
I also reported the issue to Microsoft (https://developercommunity.visualstudio.com/content/problem/878781/cs8032-could-not-load-file-or-assembly-microsoftco.html) and they came back with a few links.

We’ve got it solved by updating all the packages in the solution.
